Introduction:
Pledge
29 Jesus went on from there and walked beside the Sea of Galilee.
And he went up on the mountain and sat down there.
30 And great crowds came to him, bringing with them the lame, the blind, the crippled, the mute, and many others, and they put them at his feet, and he healed them,
31 so that the crowd wondered, when they saw the mute speaking, the crippled healthy, the lame walking, and the blind seeing.
And they glorified the God of Israel.
32 Then Jesus called his disciples to him and said, “I have compassion on the crowd because they have been with me now three days and have nothing to eat.
And I am unwilling to send them away hungry, lest they faint on the way.”
33 And the disciples said to him, “Where are we to get enough bread in such a desolate place to feed so great a crowd?”
34 And Jesus said to them, “How many loaves do you have?”
They said, “Seven, and a few small fish.”
35 And directing the crowd to sit down on the ground,
36 he took the seven loaves and the fish, and having given thanks he broke them and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds.
37 And they all ate and were satisfied.
And they took up seven baskets full of the broken pieces left over.
38 Those who ate were four thousand men, besides women and children.
39 And after sending away the crowds, he got into the boat and went to the region of Magadan.
Last week Matthew introduce to us the Canaanite Woman.
We talked about Faith!
If you were not able to be here and you would like to know about this woman or ...
If you want to watch any of the previous sermons you can go to our Sermon page and look up (by date and title of sermon).
We talked about Faith!
And now, Jesus is on the move again .....
In the words of that great theologian “Willie Nelson” (On the road again)
PAUSE: (If not funny then act like you erased it)
Segway:
But as you have read, Verse 29 reveals that Jesus is on the move again.
Many of us have never experienced the lifestyle of those who are in the entertainment (Music) business.
The lifestyle of living on the road for months on end.
Some of you might be saying, “I wish I could.”
I have heard many of those in that business say that its hard, difficult , and most challenging.
They are always on the go, off to the next location, next gig, next performance.
Please understand that I am not suggesting that Jesus is an entertainer.
But I think the lifestyle he lived here on earth could be equally compared.
Scripture tells us in Verse 29, “Jesus went on from there ...”
The reason I make references to this is because, sometimes, its important to know where he is at.
It brings about a clearer understanding of what is going on, why Jesus is doing what he is doing, and to whom he is encountering.
Such as the Canaanite woman.
(Non Jew, Gentile)
I think for us today, in the society we live in, its important to know the location of where we are at: Example
At Page, Arizona .... movie theater .....
watching the new Lone Ranger movie .... Johnny Depp (Tonto)
The Lone Ranger and Tonto was making fun of each other all throughout the movie.
The parts were Tonto was being made fun of (We laughed)
The Parts were The lone ranger was being made fun of the rest of the Movie theater was laughing.
After looking around and realizing where we were (Native American country) and everyone in the theater besides us was Native american.
We understood now why no one was laughing when Tonto was being made fun of.
PAUSE
Body:
As we study the Word of God, It’s important for us to understand where Jesus is at (Location).
I’ll explain why later but ...
Let’s take a look at this passage.
(Vs 29-30) Jesus is walking along the Sea of Galilee.
A Great crowd surrounds him and he begins to heal them.
Scripture tells us that he places himself in an authoritative position (Sit down) and the people (put them) “laid” the sick at his feet.
Picture this: 1000’s of people coming to Jesus.
What we come to understand about this is,
.... they knew who He was ......
They had heard of what he has done.
(Vs 31) They “wondered” (NIV -were “Amazed”) when they saw that all were getting healed.
Example: Let me give you an example of what this group of people are experiencing .....
You heard someone say, You need to go see (Whatever act you like)it’s amazing.
You have heard them on a CD or watched them on TV but when you go see them LIVE you understand what that person was meaning when they said “It’s amazing.”
This is the feel of this word, “WONDERED.”
(AMAZING)
(Vs 31) “They Glorified the God of Israel.”
The root word in the Greek for “Glorified” is where we get the English word “Doxology.”
(Dox - a - zo)
Doxology:
Praise God, from Whom all blessings flow;
Praise Him, all creatures here below;
Praise Him above, ye heavenly host;
Praise Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.
AMEN
(Vs 32) Jesus calls for his disciples and shares with them his heart, (He explains himself to them) “I have compassion on the crowd ...”
For me, who was part of the crowd that needed healing (Spiritually), this moves me.
(Vs 32) Jesus calls for his disciples and shares with them his heart, “I have compassion on the crowd ...”
He realizes the time they have spent with Him.
(3 days)
They are possibly running out of food.
He is concerned for their health (lest they faint).
Church I started to wonder what the Disciples were thinking.
Were they possibly thinking “This all looks and sounds familiar!”
(Feeding of the 5000)
This is how my mind thinks sometimes, ......
What if the disciples thought, “OK Jesus,we know where you are going with this.
We will play along for the crowds sake!”
And they say with a sense of a really bad actor, “Where are we going to get enough bread in such a desolate place.”
.”
Just being funny!
Whatever the case may be, this had to sound very familiar to them.
Moving on, (Vs 34) They reveal how much food they do have.
(7 loaves and a few small fish.)
Jesus gives the same direction as he did when feeding the 5000.
