BIBLE STUDY| MIRACLES OF JESUS SERIES |THE FOURTH MIRACLE OF JESUS pt.43 | THE FEEDING OF 5,000 MEN WITH 5 LOAVES OF BREAD AND 2 FISHES| CHIMDI OHAHUNA Join us for another insightful episode of the Miracles of Jesus Bible Study Series, where we look into the profound meanings behind vital biblical passages. In this episode, we explore the powerful stories from John 6:11, Matthew 14:19, Luke 9:16, and Mark 6:41 that highlight the miracle of the feeding of the 5,000. Central to this teaching is the concept of "Blessed," derived from the Greek word “Eulogio,” which encompasses the ideas of speaking well of, thanking, prospering, and invoking benedictions. Discover the dual nature of blessings—how both God and Man interact through this sacred term. When God blesses Mankind, He invokes favor upon us, while when we bless God, we express our gratitude and praise. This foundational understanding transforms our perspective on the words of Jesus as He takes the five barley loaves and two fish: “give thanks.” The study unveils why Apostle John’s use of “give thanks” is more apt in this context and how it lays the groundwork for miraculous outcomes. Amidst our perceived insufficiencies, we discover the critical truth that there is always something for which we can give thanks. This episode emphasizes that recognizing God's sufficiency during our moments of lack allows us to witness His strength manifesting within our weakness. We often find ourselves caught in a mentality of inadequacy, overlooking the small resources at our disposal that can lead to divine intervention. Through notable biblical examples, such as the widow of Zarephath and Elijah, we highlight how God specializes in doing great things with little—reminding us that when we view our insufficiencies as something less than what God can use, we miss out on the miraculous. Thanksgiving emerges as a powerful response that prevents discouragement and activates God's grace in our lives. As we reflect on Philippians 4:6, we learn that by expressing gratitude even for the smallest provisions, we pave the way for abundance. Tune in to this episode to uncover how a simple act of giving thanks can transform our perception and open the door to the miraculous in our everyday lives!
