Welcome from Brown Chapel/Avant, Mt. Pleasant & Shiloh

Prayer: Minister Malone

Scripture: John 6:1-11 - Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand

1Some time after this, Jesus crossed to the far shore of the Sea of Galilee (that is, the Sea of Tiberias), 2and a great crowd of people followed him because they saw the signs he had performed by healing the sick. 3Then Jesus went up on a mountainside and sat down with his disciples. 4The Jewish Passover Festival was near.

5When Jesus looked up and saw a great crowd coming toward him, he said to Philip, “Where shall we buy bread for these people to eat?”6He asked this only to test him, for he already had in mind what he was going to do.

7Philip answered him, “It would take more than half a year’s wages to buy enough bread for each one to have a bite!”

8Another of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, spoke up, 9“Here is a boy with five small barley loaves and two small fish, but how far will they go among so many?”

10Jesus said, “Have the people sit down." There was plenty of grass in that place, and they sat down (about five thousand men were there). 11Jesus then took the loaves, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted. He did the same with the fish.

Subject: In The Hands of God

• God's hands are not our hands.
• There are many miracles performed by Jesus. 
• When we place our lives in the hands of the Lord we become servants of the Lord.
• Two fish & 5 loaves of bread and above all, Jesus!
• All to Jesus, I surrender. All to Him I freely give. In other words, turn it over to Jesus.
• Jesus wants to take away whatever is eating away at our souls.
• Matthew 11:28-30 - Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.  For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
• God's got the whole world in His hands.
