The Difference between kingdom provision and your paycheck

In John 6, Great multitudes followed Jesus in those days. Jesus, testing Philip, asked, Where can we buy bread to feed them? Jesus already knew what he would. Philip said, ‘A year’s wage or a small fortune is not enough to feed all these people.’

Peter said, ‘Here is a little boy who has five barley loaves of bread and two small fishes, but what are they among so many?

Jesus took the bread and fish. He prayed over them and blessed them. He gave them to his disciples to pass out. Everyone eats and is filled. They took up twelve baskets full of fragments that were left over!

Jesus modelled the kingdom

The kingdom of God is the original system that God established at the beginning, as described in Genesis 1-2. It is God’s blessing on man. God gave Adam dominion over creation.

When you are operating in God’s kingdom with God’s blessing on; it will take out of dependency on man’s system.

Jesus cursed a fig tree that died from the roots up in 24 hours. Peter called attention to the fig. Jesus said, Have faith in God. He said, they could speak to a mountain, and it would obey them.

Jesus said, ‘The works he did, we would do and greater, because he was going to the Father.’

The Problem

Jesus said, It is the Father’s good pleasure to give you the kingdom. People don’t understand this because they have experience in working with God. They don’t understand that God works in partnership based on a covenant.

The problem is, there is no experience in the kingdom. When I was in the military, I was utterly immersed in military life. I was honorably discharged, and a few years later, I was still worrying about missing formation.

I know people who retired from military service. These people’s lives were consumed with military plans and purposes. When they leave the service, they often struggle to adapt to civilian life. They start over, having to adapt to a new way of life.

To function in kingdom life, you have to learn the ways of God. It takes years of growth and development. To achieve this, you are going to make mistakes. There will be seasons of struggles, growth, and development.

Jesus said, ‘Seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness (his way of doing things). For example, Abel offered a more excellent sacrifice by which he obtained witness from God that he was righteous, God testifying about his offering. Abel gave God what was required, and God rewarded him.

People been trained in the system of man from five years of age

In our educational system, education begins in kindergarten. A newborn Jewish baby is circumcised into the covenant of Abraham at the age of eight days old. Then we ascend higher levels of education, indoctrination and debt to the system.

We live our lives controlled by a credit score. This score predicts how well you manage debt. People submit themselves to the masters of debt.

True source of dominion

Genesis 1:26, let us make man in our image after our likeness and let them have dominion

Your base of power is not something you get or something you exercise because the system of man delegated to you.

The people recognized that Jesus taught with authority. The Pharisees recognize that Jesus has authority, and they ask him, ‘By what authority and by whose authority you do these things?’

The answer to this question is that God anointed Jesus with the Holy Spirit and power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, Acts 10:38

Your base of power comes from the dominion God invested in you at birth and developed over a lifetime. It comes from the gifts and calling of God. He that anointed us is God, 1 Corinthians 1:21

The difference between heavenly provision and your paycheck is a miracle!

Grace and peace!
