Do you
still not understand? Don't you remember the five loaves for the five thousand,
and how many basketfuls you gathered?
The disciples of Jesus Christ had forgotten to
bring bread with them on their journey. Jesus Christ started a discussion with
them concerning bread. Though He was speaking of spiritual things, they
misunderstood Him to be referring to bread for food. Jesus, being aware that
they were discussing among themselves that they had no bread, expressed His
surprise that they had forgotten the miracles that had happened in recent past.
He expected that they would not bother about the fact that they had no bread
with them, for they had Him who could provide bread for them.
There are certain situations that could be
going on in your life or around you that leave you in doubt and with
uncertainty. You may be concerned so much with present cares that you do not
remember how God had miraculously or divinely stepped in on your behalf. Today your Loving
Father says to you, "Have you forgotten those
repeated instances of mercy and miracles?" If God has done it
before, for you or for others, He is more than able to do miracles for you
today. Take out time to remember and meditate on the past miracles and His supernatural provisions.
Boost your faith once again for the things you are believing God for.
Prayer: My Loving Father,
forgive me for forgetting those miracles and supernatural things You have done
in my life. Forgive me for times I have not been thankful for the great things You
have done for me. You alone are God, the same yesterday, today and forever more.
You who has done great things for me in the past is able to do exceedingly,
abundantly, above all that I ask or ever think, according to the power that
works in me. I pray, Father, that as I think on the past miracles and meditate
on Your word, that my faith will grow to release the power that works in me. May
my trust and expectation be on You alone. In Jesus Name I pray, Amen.

"Bless the Lord oh my soul and forget not all His benefits. Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's"
Psalm 103:2-5

Yes oo. Sometimes, remembering what God has done in the past helps me face present trials
He remembers even when we forget. It's so good to go over what he has done for us.
Thanks for sharing this.
I need to remember more.
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing, I'm at a phase in my life where everything is about to change and i'm beginning to worry. But God has always been faithful and He will show Himself strong yet again. Thank you for making me remember, stay blessed.
