It Was Found In My Heart

What are we seeking Christ for, is it for what He can do for us in the natural or is it for what He has done for us in the Spirit?
 
 Jesus is having a revealing conversation with His disciples about heavenly things. He is trying to get them to go beyond the natural and tap into the spiritual. We pray that as you reflect on this conversation that you will go deeper with Christ.

Jesus tells the religious leader, Nicodemus that he must be born again, Nicodemus lacked heavenly understanding to comprehend what Jesus was saying.
 What is being Born Again? How important is it to know that you have been born again? We hope that this episode will help you understand more than Nico did!

What are you seeking? A closer walk with creation or a closer walk with the Creator? Our choice will decide what we shall reap and what is festering deeply in the belly of our hearts.

Scripture Ref.

Believing in Jesus can go a long way quicker.  But we must be willing to get to the place where we can release our fears into the faith of Jesus.

Feeding the 5000+ was pretty amazing. Jesus, with an insufficient supply fed the great demand, sufficiently. 

We learn that when we give what we have, with a thankful heart, to the one whose supplies are endless, we discover that even the fragmented leftovers can go a long way in meeting His Kingdom purpose. 

Scripture Ref.

James 1:17, every good and perfect gift
Psalms 34:1, His praise will continually be in my mouth
John 6:39, I should lose nothing
Acts 17:28, in Him we live, and move, and have our being
Isaiah 26:3, mind is stayed on thee

Sometimes what we see, or think isn't what we get. And though His thoughts and ways are above our thoughts and ways, we are often tested to see if our thoughts and ways have been transformed to reflect what we have seen our Jesus do and what we have heard our Jesus say.

Scripture Ref.

John 6:1-11, Loaves and fishes
Proverbs 3:5-6, lean not on own understanding
Hebrews 4:3, works finished from the foundation of the world
1 Thessalonian 5:18, Thanksgiving is WILL of God

Prayer has been noted to be one of the most powerful weapon God has given us that is used the less. A weapon that the enemy doesn't want us to understand or use, especially exponentially, because it would be a noticeable game changer over the gates of Hell.
