Although I always enjoy the afternoon meal, I am very grateful for the leftovers. Don't judge me, but I can eat tur- key and dressing for breakfast, lunch, and din- ner. I don't have to worry about cooking for a week! LOL! It reminds me how God doesn't just give me enough, he gives extra. Throughout Scripture, we see examples of how God miraculously supplied for His people in their times of need and blew them away with abundance. Ephesians 3:20-21 (NIV) states, "Now to him who is able to do im- measurably more than all we ask or imag- ine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus throughout all generations, forever and ever! Amen." Multiplication One powerful example of supernatural provision and abundance is the story of the feeding of the 5,000 in Matthew 14. Jesus had compassion on the large crowd that had gathered to hear Him teach. It was a remote place and the hour was late, yet the people were hungry. The disciples wanted to send them away to find food. However, in Mat- thew 14:16 (ESV) Jesus stated, "...They do not need to go away. You give them some- thing to eat." The disciples looked around and found only 5 loaves of bread and 2 fish. Certainly, it was not enough to feed over 5,000 people! But Jesus blessed the small amount of food, broke it, and gave it to the disciples to distribute among the people. And somehow, after everyone ate, there were 12 baskets FULL of leftovers! This miraculous provision reminds us that God can multiply and supernaturally in- crease whatever we place in His hands. God's Powerful Hands When we lack resources, God says "Give it to Me." He takes our small of- fering, blesses it, breaks it, and makes it MORE than enough. He specializes in supernaturally multiplying limited re- sources. What feels insufficient in our hands becomes abundant in the Master's hands. Not only does God miraculously provide enough for our needs, but he gives us leftovers! God loves to outdo himself. His blessings overflow our expectations as Psalm 65:11 (GNT) says, "What a rich harvest your goodness provides! Wherever you go there is plenty." PRAY THIS PRAYER: "Father, the eyes of all look to you in hope; you give them their food as they need it. When you open your hand, you satisfy the hunger and thirst of every living thing; You are righteous in everything you do. I praise you for being my shepherd and provider. Thank you for being good and kind to me. Forgive me for complaining or worrying that I won't be provided for, when you are Jehovah Jireh - my provider. Everything always works out. My heart is filled with gratitude. In Jesus' name, I pray - Amen." Leftovers DANYALE PATTERSON
