[This passage of scripture has many different lessons to teach but this is something the Lord revealed to me through it this past time reading it. I thought it was worth sharing. Feel free to post comments.]
Luke 9:10-13 6
“And the apostles, when they were returned, told Him all that they had done. And He took them, and went aside privately into a desert place belonging to the city called Bethsaida. And the people, when they knew it, followed Him: and He received them , and spake unto them of the kingdom of God, and healed them that had need of healing. And when the day began to wear away, then came the twelve, and said unto Him, Send the multitude away, that they may go into the towns and country round about, and lodge, and get victuals: for we are here in a desert place. But He said unto them, Give ye them to eat.”
Waiting on the Lord is a very good thing…sometimes. There are other times….a lot of times….when God is waiting….ON US! He gives us a head start and shows us how to go about things and we just expect Him to lay everything out for us when we aren’t willing to make any effort. We wait on others to make the first move and hope that those in need will somehow obtain what they so desperately need. What does Yeshua have to say about this? “Give ye them to eat.” He has endowed you with power from on high (well…hopefully you’re there)! Yeshua promised to stand by our sides as long as we stand by Him. He does not however promise to hold our hands and baby us for the rest of our lives. How many people does it take to start a revolution? How many people does it take to make an entire congregation stand in worship to God? How many people does it take to change the world? ONE! Be that one where you are. Yeshua believes in you.
