- 3:57Speaker 2: Sea of Galilee. It's midday and you feel the warmth
- 4:02Speaker 2: of the sun shine on your body. Water from the
- 4:06Speaker 2: sea splashes gently on your face. As you see the

- 4:37Speaker 2: what will happen next. Looking around, you see thousands of
- 4:43Speaker 2: agitated people to your right and left, pushing and shoving
- 4:48Speaker 2: to find the seat closest to Jesus and his disciples.
- 4:54Speaker 2: You find a peaceful spot close to the Messiah and

- 5:24Speaker 2: the same yesterday to day and for evermore. He delights
- 5:30Speaker 2: in every detail of your life and knows your problems
- 5:35Speaker 2: and needs before you even pray about them. Take a
- 5:39Speaker 2: moment and whisper to Jesus how much you love him.
- 5:45Speaker 2: Lay down your needs and concerns at his feet, and
- 5:49Speaker 2: tell him how much you trust him to provide. Breethe, then,

- 6:48Speaker 2: righteousness shall be filled. Seek ye first the Kingdom and
- 6:54Speaker 2: my righteousness, and all of these things that you are
- 6:58Speaker 2: praying for shall be added unto you. Do you see
- 7:03Speaker 2: the sparrows in the sky, not one of them falls
- 7:07Speaker 2: to the ground outside of my Father's will? Are you
- 7:11Speaker 2: not worth much more than they? You are my beloved
- 7:17Speaker 2: in whom I am well pleased. You are created for

- 8:59Speaker 2: The Deci poples tell Jesus to send the multitudes away.
- 9:05Speaker 2: There is not enough money or food to feed all
- 9:07Speaker 2: five thousand of you. Jesus looks down, then turns his
- 9:15Speaker 2: head and looks directly at you. See the peace and
- 9:21Speaker 2: love in his compassionate eyes. He smiles at you, and
- 9:28Speaker 2: joy fills your heart. You sense the crowd beginning to
- 9:33Speaker 2: quiet down, The winds become very still, and time itself
- 9:39Speaker 2: begins to slow down. Everywhere around you begins to look

- 9:48Speaker 2: prey over the five loaves and two fish. Silence has
- 9:55Speaker 2: replaced the noise of the crowd. As all eyes are
- 9:59Speaker 2: on Jesus, you can hear your own breath. Jesus looks
- 10:07Speaker 2: up and thanks the Father and declares that he is
- 10:11Speaker 2: Jehovah Jirah, our provider. How does it feel knowing that

- 10:36Speaker 2: feel the peace of the Holy Spirit overwhelm your hearts
- 10:40Speaker 2: and minds. He has everything in your life under control.
- 10:46Speaker 2: There is nothing too hard for the Lord. He cares
- 10:51Speaker 2: for you so much. The circumstances of your life earned
- 10:57Speaker 2: his mighty hands. Breathe out and whisper to Jesus, You
- 11:06Speaker 2: are Jehovah Jairah, my provider. You are the same yesterday

- 11:20Speaker 2: all that I can ask or think. You are more
- 11:24Speaker 2: than able to provide for all my needs according to
- 11:28Speaker 2: your riches in glory. You see a golden glory emanating
- 11:38Speaker 2: from Jesus hands. Your heart overflows with thankfulness in anticipation
- 11:45Speaker 2: of what is coming next. What is this man truly
- 11:51Speaker 2: capable of? Jesus begins breaking the loaves and dividing the
- 11:57Speaker 2: fish in baskets for the disciples to distribute to those

- 35:38Speaker 2: Looking around, you see thousands of agitated people to your
- 35:42Speaker 2: right and left, pushing and shoving to find the seat
- 35:46Speaker 2: closest to Jesus and his disciples. You find a peaceful

- 36:24Speaker 2: to day and for evermore. He delights in every detail
- 36:30Speaker 2: of your life and knows your problems and needs before

- 1:07:07Speaker 2: right and left, pushing and shoving to find the seat
- 1:07:11Speaker 2: closest to Jesus and his disciples. You find a peaceful
- 1:07:17Speaker 2: spot close to the Messiah, and take your sandals off
- 1:07:21Speaker 2: and set your mat down. The green grass is soft
- 1:07:26Speaker 2: under the soles of your feet. How does it feel
- 1:07:31Speaker 2: to be in Jesus presence? Close your eyes and breathe
- 1:07:38Speaker 2: in God's presence. He is the good shepherd who leads
- 1:07:44Speaker 2: you to still waters. He is the same yesterday, today,
- 1:07:51Speaker 2: and forevermore. He delights in every detail of your life
- 1:07:57Speaker 2: and knows your problems and needs before you even pray
- 1:08:01Speaker 2: about them. Take a moment and whisper to Jesus how
- 1:08:07Speaker 2: much you love him. Lay down your needs and concerns
- 1:08:12Speaker 2: at his feet and tell him how much you trust
- 1:08:16Speaker 2: him to provide. Bree then, God's peace that transcends all understanding.
- 1:08:26Speaker 2: You are loved. Take off the heavy yoke of anxiety
- 1:08:32Speaker 2: and bondage and put on his yoke, which is easy
- 1:08:36Speaker 2: and light. He provides for all your needs according to
- 1:08:42Speaker 2: his riches and glory. Jesus begins to teach about the
- 1:08:52Speaker 2: good shepherd who leaves the ninety nine for one sheep
- 1:08:56Speaker 2: that has gone astray. Sense the compassion in his voice.
- 1:09:03Speaker 2: He looks around and gently states, I am the good shepherd,
- 1:09:10Speaker 2: and lead you beside still waters. All who hunger and
- 1:09:15Speaker 2: thirst for righteousness shall be filled. Seek ye first the
- 1:09:20Speaker 2: kingdom and my righteousness, and all of these things that
- 1:09:25Speaker 2: you are praying for shall be added unto you. Do
- 1:09:31Speaker 2: you see the sparrows in the sky, Not one of
- 1:09:34Speaker 2: them falls to the ground outside of my father's will?
- 1:09:39Speaker 2: Are you not worth much more than they? You are
- 1:09:44Speaker 2: my beloved in whom I am well pleased. You are
- 1:09:49Speaker 2: created for my pleasure. You are my masterpiece, and your
- 1:09:57Speaker 2: life is in my hands. As your shepherd, I lead

- 1:11:26Speaker 2: The sun is beginning to set and the crowd is
- 1:11:29Speaker 2: tired and hungry. The disciples tell Jesus to send the
- 1:11:34Speaker 2: multitudes away. There is not enough money or food to
- 1:11:40Speaker 2: feed all five thousand of you. Jesus looks down, then
- 1:11:48Speaker 2: turns his head and looks directly at you. See the
- 1:11:54Speaker 2: peace and love in his compassionate eyes. He smiles at you,
- 1:12:02Speaker 2: and joy fills your heart. You sense the crowd beginning

- 1:12:34Speaker 2: are on Jesus, you can hear your own breath. Jesus
- 1:12:42Speaker 2: looks up and thanks the Father and declares that he
- 1:12:47Speaker 2: is Jehovah Jyrah, our provider. How does it feel knowing
- 1:12:55Speaker 2: that God himself is your provider? Lay your head down
- 1:13:01Speaker 2: on his chest and feel his peace. Breathe in God's presence.
- 1:13:12Speaker 2: Feel the peace of the Holy Spirit overwhelm your hearts
- 1:13:17Speaker 2: and mind. He has everything in your life under control.
- 1:13:24Speaker 2: There is nothing too hard for the Lord. He cares
- 1:13:28Speaker 2: for you so much, the circumstances of your life earned
- 1:13:34Speaker 2: his mighty hands. Breathe out and whisper to Jesus. You
- 1:13:44Speaker 2: are Jehovah, Jairah, my provider. You are the same, yesterday
- 1:13:51Speaker 2: to day and forevermore. You do exceedingly abundantly above all
- 1:13:59Speaker 2: that I can ask or think. You are more than

- 1:14:44Speaker 2: The baskets are full to the brim with fish and bread,
- 1:14:48Speaker 2: and the people begin to praise God with great laughter
- 1:14:52Speaker 2: and cheer. You hear people shouting to your right and
- 1:14:58Speaker 2: to your left, Praise be to God. He is Jehovah Jirah,
- 1:15:05Speaker 2: our provider, our ever present help in time of need.
- 1:15:14Speaker 2: Everywhere you look, the children cease from crying, and five
- 1:15:19Speaker 2: thousand people eat to their heart's content. You look over
- 1:15:25Speaker 2: at the disciples table, and there are twelve more baskets
