Was sitting in church last Sunday morning preparing to contribute to the offering when the Lord spoke to me and said, "I'll take that and multiply it 1,000 times. You are now all tithed up!"
Last night I was sitting outside meditating on just how what I heard on Sunday morning as scripture talks of the Kingdom of Heaven in terms of 30, 60, and a hundred fold. I thought to myself, now where in scripture is an example of our stuff being multiplied 1,000 times?
Immediately my mind went to the stories of the loaves and fishes. 5 loaves and 2 fishes fed 5,000 men plus the women and children that were with them with 12 baskets full left over. I was amazed!
As I continued to look at the miracle of the loaves and fishes I began to see the meaning in our Lord's action. He was declaring that when you put the bread of life, (HIM), with a fish, (us), into the hungry mouths of those that will hear, all are filled with (Him) and (us), and none lost. The 12 baskets taken up last are those of Israel sealed in the book of Revelation. Of the tribe of...He sealed 12 thousand..etc. Also notice that those 12 baskets full were taken up last...
Both miracles of the loaves and the fishes represent the two flocks, the flock of His day, and those not of that flock he has called in our day. Awesome, Lord! We just praise you and thank you Lord that you have placed your bread in us, so we can be the food of life to the hungry!
