Mark 6:30-52, Deut 8:3, Matt 4:4

Men and brethren, any miracle you fail to appreciate will depreciate. The bible says in Mark 6:52 “…For they considered not the miracle of the loaves: for their heart was hardened.” The miracle is not in what you lost; the miracle is not what you had consumed previously; your best days are not your yesterdays; your miracle is what you have left; if you discard it, ignore it, don’t use it, don’t value it, don’t learn from it, don’t understand it; you will lose the battle before you because you did not learn from the battle behind you. That which remains is more valuable than that which was lost. It is not so much about the miracle itself but to let you understand what happens between miracles. The miracle is the frame but between the miracles is the picture. As you appreciate God today, the blessings missing in your life shall be fulfilled.

The bible says 5000 men suggest perhaps there may have been about 15000 people who gathered to hear Jesus, considering that he never had a business card, he never had a website ministry, he had no radio and television ministry, he did not preach with a microphone and yet they believed him that they would rather faint in hunger than to miss the word that carries power. No wonder the bible concluded that “man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD doth man live” Deut 8:3, Matt 4:4

When the young disciples came and told Jesus that there was a problem and there was no food; Jesus began to say to them “What do you have” Mark 6:38. Miracles always began with recognition of what you have. If you don’t recognize what you have you can never multiply what you have not recognized.

What is ironic to me is that they did not count the women and children and the one who was not counted is the one with the miracle. Boy Oh boy, men may have discarded you, they may have said you are a minus to their family; your working place may have felt you were useless to be given an important responsibility but they have no clue that you are the one with the miracle that will change their story to glory. It is amazing that God uses people that other people don’t count. They were so busy counting the people that they thought were so significant and forgot to count the very one that God has moved into a position to release a blessing that was of paramount importance. Our Awesomely awesome God will always use something that you have not counted to produce a miracle in your life.

They were asked to sit down in fifties because the best miracle in your life takes time; it cannot be driven by your hunger or your need or necessity. Sometimes you need to get yourself structured and in order so that you are ready to receive the magnitude of what God has for you. Just because you have a driven need does not make important the urgency of your miracles, you need to be in order. A man needs certain things before he proposes and marries a woman; Adam was the CEO of Gods creation before God brought a woman to him. The woman need favour and some maturity before accepting a marriage proposal because marriage is a besieged city, those inside without God wants to jump out and those outside wants to jump in. God must trust you to receive the magnitude of financial miracle before he releases it to you. Can you be trusted?

People are so busy trying to get what God has that they don’t provide the structure that is necessary to sustain what they have been given. When they were all seated, counted and ready and then Jesus took bread and blessed it. God is a God of order. Daddy Uma made me to understand that “miracle is equal to opportunity plus preparation.”

Jesus blessed something that was not enough. Until you can be thankful for something that is not enough, then what you have cannot be multiplied into something that is more than enough. This is one of the reasons we insist in this commission for you to sow testimony seed after a miracle, teaching you the secret of abundance and appreciation.

Do we have people who can say to God “Father, I know this is not the job I wanted, I know this is not the house I wanted, I know this is not the marriage I expected, I know this is not the school I wanted, I know this child is not living to my expectation but I still lift it up and I thank you for it. You will never get a multiplication unless you are grateful for what He has done for you rather than waiting for what He is going to do.

Men and brethren, we had inventory that it was two fish and five loaves of bread when he blessed it but we lost count when he broke it. The blessing is in the breaking; the more he broke it, the more it multiplies. That which refuses to be broken, refuses to be blessed. It is the breaking of life that produces the blessing of life. The most blessed people I have ever read about and met in my life have gone through something that broke them.

Have you ever been broken? Home broken? Dreams broken? Imaginations broken? Career broken? Hope broken? Relationship broken? The greatest blessing comes in the hardest breakings of your life. The real power of the text is not in what they ate, the real power is what they had left. He chose for them to have an overflow because He is God of more than enough. I announce that someone is about to have more than enough in the name that is above every other name, in Jesus name.

Before I share testimonies and the concluding prayer. Please ignore fake profiles of Uma Ukpai Breakthrough Prayer.. We dont have Ophanages.
