Speaker 1: Next on the Potter's Touch.
0:02
Speaker 2: Until you can be thankful for something that is not enough,
0:09
Speaker 2: then what you have cannot be multiplied into what is
0:14
Speaker 2: more than enough. But when you can take it and say, Lord,
0:17
Speaker 2: I know this is not the job I wanted. I
0:19
Speaker 2: know this is not the house I want it. I
0:21
Speaker 2: know this is not the marriage I expected. I know
0:25
Speaker 2: this child is not living up to my expectation. But
0:28
Speaker 2: I still lift it up and I thank you for it.
0:39
Speaker 1: Reaching the.
0:54
Speaker 3: Welcome to the Potter's Touch. I'm your host for today,
0:57
Speaker 3: Sarah Henson. I've got an incredible message for you. It's
1:01
Speaker 3: called Save the Scraps. No matter what you're thinking is about,
1:05
Speaker 3: you're wrong. You have to watch this message for yourself.
1:08
Speaker 3: Be blessed and take a look.
1:11
Speaker 2: Understand that Jesus most of his ministry, all of his ministry,
1:14
Speaker 2: is comprised between the age of thirty and about thirty three,
1:18
Speaker 2: three years of ministry. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John are
1:22
Speaker 2: written about those three years of ministry. Jesus Christ, who
1:27
Speaker 2: is neither famous nor significant, born with mediocre surroundings, beggarly
1:34
Speaker 2: almost if you please, the son of a carpenter, does
1:39
Speaker 2: not step into notoriety. He is not esteemed, he has
1:43
Speaker 2: not noticed. He is not initially appreciated or respected. He
1:48
Speaker 2: is born to commoners. He is born in a segment,
1:51
Speaker 2: in a particular realm of the community that is not
1:54
Speaker 2: particularly appreciated. The Roman Empire has taken.
1:58
Speaker 1: Over all of Jerusalem, all of is The Jews.
2:00
Speaker 2: Are in a position of subsidiary standards and power, and
2:04
Speaker 2: Jesus is born in the family of people that are
2:07
Speaker 2: not considered particularly aristocracy. He has no natural leverage that
2:14
Speaker 2: would cause him to reach prominence, and yet at the
2:17
Speaker 2: age of thirty he embarks upon the task of ministry.
2:22
Speaker 2: That ministry is drawn to and extrapolated out of a
2:25
Speaker 2: divine assignment given him by the Father to be about
2:30
Speaker 2: his father's business. Are you following what I'm saying? And so,
2:35
Speaker 2: without the benefit of technology, Jesus begins a ministry that
2:40
Speaker 2: starts at the marriage of Cana. And we talked about
2:42
Speaker 2: that a few weeks ago. And he moved from the
2:45
Speaker 2: marriage of Cana to Nicodemus, stopping by slipping by sneaking
2:50
Speaker 2: in by night.
2:51
Speaker 1: To ask him some questions.
2:53
Speaker 2: Because Nicodemus comes from the Sanhedrin court Pharisee, they were religious,
3:00
Speaker 2: deeply judicious people who respected the laws of Moses and
3:04
Speaker 2: were absolute in the fulfillment of the integrities of that law.
3:08
Speaker 2: And Nicodemus was up under pressure to reject Christ, but
3:12
Speaker 2: came to Christ by night to say, I perceive something
3:15
Speaker 2: about you that is distinctive and set apart from other people.
3:19
Speaker 2: Jesus continues his ministry and stops by the well and
3:23
Speaker 2: sits down by the well and waits all day at
3:26
Speaker 2: the well for a woman who comes.
3:28
Speaker 1: Up at an unusual time.
3:30
Speaker 2: She does not come down to the well at the
3:32
Speaker 2: normal hour of watering, when women came early in the morning.
3:36
Speaker 1: She is not one of.
3:37
Speaker 2: Those women who benefited from being accepted by other women.
3:40
Speaker 2: There are some women that women just don't like. Such
3:46
Speaker 2: what's the case with this woman? In an attempt to
3:49
Speaker 2: avoid the sociological pressure of being rejected by other women,
3:53
Speaker 2: born and raised in a misogenic society that does not
3:56
Speaker 2: appreciate the establishment of women's lips to the well in
4:01
Speaker 2: the afternoon, and Jesus is sitting at the well waiting
4:05
Speaker 2: on her to come, and he begins to minister to
4:07
Speaker 2: her at the well. A conversation ensues that is very
4:10
Speaker 2: similar to that that he has had with Nicodemus. It
4:14
Speaker 2: is similar from the perspective, and I begin to study
4:17
Speaker 2: the two of them, is that neither of them really
4:19
Speaker 2: understood what Jesus.
4:21
Speaker 1: Was talking about.
4:22
Speaker 2: Nicodemus misses it when Jesus says to him, you must
4:25
Speaker 2: be born again. Nicodemus, thinking natural in the face of
4:29
Speaker 2: a spiritual Christ, tries to put a natural application to
4:32
Speaker 2: a spiritual word and says, how can a man, when
4:35
Speaker 2: he is old enter back into his mother's womb. In
4:38
Speaker 2: the same struggle to understand where Jesus is coming from,
4:42
Speaker 2: the woman at the well thinks she really has water
4:46
Speaker 2: that Christ needs. She understands in her natural mind that
4:51
Speaker 2: her water quenches thirst. Jesus begins to make her understand, woman,
4:55
Speaker 2: if you drink of the water that you have, you
4:58
Speaker 2: will thirst again. But if if you drink of the
5:00
Speaker 2: water that I have, you will never thirst again. He
5:05
Speaker 2: is trying to do a comparative analysis between that that
5:08
Speaker 2: is natural and that.
5:09
Speaker 1: That is spiritual.
5:10
Speaker 2: His struggle is is to begin to infiltrate a culture
5:14
Speaker 2: and a society that thinks so superficially that they cannot
5:20
Speaker 2: grasp the magnitude of what he has come to see
5:24
Speaker 2: because Jesus operates on another level, on another plane, and
5:28
Speaker 2: another dimensions. His thoughts above our thoughts, his ways above
5:32
Speaker 2: our way, so beyond us that they cannot comprehend the
5:35
Speaker 2: magnitude of what he is saying. He is beginning his ministry.
5:40
Speaker 2: He has been baptized in the Jordan River. John has
5:43
Speaker 2: more prestige than Jesus. John is more notable and more
5:47
Speaker 2: recognized than Jesus. But the moment that John baptizes Jesus,
5:51
Speaker 2: he begins to decrease that Christ might increase. Most of
5:55
Speaker 2: his miracles have occurred within a vacuum, as it were,
5:59
Speaker 2: within a small matrix, in a house on the side
6:02
Speaker 2: of the road with one or two people. But even
6:05
Speaker 2: though he starts in a very mundane environment, he begins
6:09
Speaker 2: to increase to such magnitude that he has drawn a following. Now,
6:14
Speaker 2: the Bible says, five thousand men, not to mention the
6:18
Speaker 2: women and children have gathered to hear Jesus speak. Five
6:23
Speaker 2: thousand men suggests that there were perhaps at least fifteen
6:28
Speaker 2: thousand people there. They didn't count the women or the children,
6:32
Speaker 2: only the men, But five thousand men gathered around the
6:37
Speaker 2: desert place to hear Jesus, and he spoke with so
6:40
Speaker 2: much power that the hours had slipped away, and the
6:44
Speaker 2: time had slipped away, and the people were so hungry
6:46
Speaker 2: they were about to fate, but they could not resist
6:50
Speaker 2: hearing Jesus. Might not pause in the prelude of what
6:53
Speaker 2: I'm saying to you to say how odd I am
6:56
Speaker 2: by this, because Jesus has a mass, a crowd of
7:00
Speaker 2: incomprehensible proportion beyond human imagination, in a society that really
7:05
Speaker 2: doesn't have a lot of people. We have increased in
7:08
Speaker 2: the world today from in the last one hundred years
7:10
Speaker 2: from four billion people to about seven billion. People in
7:15
Speaker 2: the world today were growing at leaps and brown with
7:17
Speaker 2: in the days of Christ, the world was not that
7:19
Speaker 2: strongly inhabited in this particular part, with even.
7:22
Speaker 1: Less to a mass.
7:23
Speaker 2: Five thousand men not to mention women and children is
7:26
Speaker 2: quite a feat. Consider with me that Jesus never had
7:30
Speaker 2: a business card, that he had no websites, he had
7:35
Speaker 2: no radio ministry, he had no television ministry, he did
7:39
Speaker 2: not stream over the internet, he did not preach with
7:41
Speaker 2: a microphone. And yet five thousand men not to mention
7:45
Speaker 2: women and children have gathered down to hear a man
7:48
Speaker 2: speak without a microphone. So engrossed and so overwhelmed by
7:53
Speaker 2: what he said, they stayed all day to hear him
7:57
Speaker 2: speak with five thousand people. If you were in the back,
8:01
Speaker 2: you couldn't hardly catch a word. But his words were
8:04
Speaker 2: so poltent, they were so life giving, they were so
8:06
Speaker 2: earth shaking, they were so transitional. Thinking that people had
8:10
Speaker 2: gathered and come away from their background and their religious ideologies,
8:14
Speaker 2: and their concepts, and their preconceived concepts, just to come
8:18
Speaker 2: in hopes that the wind might carry his voice to
8:21
Speaker 2: the back of the crowd to hear what the spirit
8:24
Speaker 2: of the Lord was saying to the terror and before
8:27
Speaker 2: they would leave him, they would rather faith of hunger
8:31
Speaker 2: than to miss a word that proceeded out of his mouth.
8:35
Speaker 2: For the Bible is quite clear that man shall not
8:37
Speaker 2: live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth
8:41
Speaker 2: out of the mouth of God. So given a choice
8:43
Speaker 2: between the bread and the word, they chose the word.
8:47
Speaker 2: The young Disciples, his executive board has gathered around him
8:51
Speaker 2: and says, Pastor, we have a situation. Oh yeah, what's
8:54
Speaker 2: the problem, He said, You're a long winded pastor. The
9:02
Speaker 2: people are about to faint of hunger, and we have
9:05
Speaker 2: no food. We should send them away, and Jesus says
9:10
Speaker 2: they need not depart. Using this as a teaching moment,
9:16
Speaker 2: he begins to say, what do you have? Miracles always
9:20
Speaker 2: begin with the recognition of what you have. If you
9:24
Speaker 2: don't recognize what you have, you can never multiply what
9:30
Speaker 2: you have.
9:30
Speaker 1: Not recognized what do you have?
9:33
Speaker 2: And you know the story as well as I do
9:35
Speaker 2: that there is a little boy there with two fish
9:38
Speaker 2: and five loaves of bread. What was ironic to me
9:41
Speaker 2: as I thought about it, is that they didn't even
9:44
Speaker 2: count the women or the children, and yet the one
9:48
Speaker 2: who wasn't counted was the one who had the miracle.
9:54
Speaker 2: Isn't it amazing that God uses people that other people
9:59
Speaker 2: don't don't.
10:00
Speaker 3: Count still to come on the Potter's touch.
10:06
Speaker 2: That refuses to be broken, refuses to be blessed.
10:13
Speaker 1: It is the.
10:13
Speaker 2: Breaking of life that produces the blessing of life. Now,
10:19
Speaker 2: I know a lot of you don't understand that because
10:21
Speaker 2: you yourselves have not been broken. But I have noticed
10:24
Speaker 2: in my life that the most blessed people I have
10:27
Speaker 2: ever met in my life have gone through something that
10:31
Speaker 2: broke them.
10:35
Speaker 1: The best miracles in your life.
10:39
Speaker 4: Take time discover your blessing is right around the corner
10:42
Speaker 4: with Bishop Jake series in between Miracles.
10:45
Speaker 2: Sometimes you've got to get yourself structured and in order
10:48
Speaker 2: so that you are ready to receive the magnitude of what.
10:51
Speaker 1: God has for you.
10:52
Speaker 2: If the enemy took your stocks, and he took your bonds,
10:55
Speaker 2: and he took your benefits, and he took your assurance,
10:58
Speaker 2: and it took your job, and it took the house,
11:00
Speaker 2: and it took your car, as long as it didn't
11:03
Speaker 2: take your expectation, you can still get a breakthrough. There's
11:07
Speaker 2: no shoot way to be pushed. You're gonna have to
11:10
Speaker 2: go through some tight places. But what is all said
11:14
Speaker 2: and done, God is going to bat you.
11:18
Speaker 4: It too.
11:20
Speaker 1: Off that you have dam off off default.
11:24
Speaker 4: Don't get discouraged by your circumstances. God has a plan
11:28
Speaker 4: to bless you. Order this life changing series today. When
11:31
Speaker 4: you write to us, visit our website. We'll call one
11:34
Speaker 4: hundred bishop to it.
11:36
Speaker 2: There are men rebuilding their lives and everybody in their
11:40
Speaker 2: life is pulling in there. If everything is making a
11:42
Speaker 2: withdrawal and nothing is making the deposit, after a while,
11:45
Speaker 2: you become bankrupt when a man becomes bankrupt, he becomes dangerous.
11:48
Speaker 2: We want to head off that bankruptcy of the soul
11:52
Speaker 2: and give the men a place where they can get
11:54
Speaker 2: a deposit. You cannot do it if everything is going
11:58
Speaker 2: out and nothing is coming here. Manpower, where men talk,
12:03
Speaker 2: I believe we need to talk. They were so busy
12:11
Speaker 2: counting who they thought was significant that they didn't count
12:15
Speaker 2: the very one that God had moved into a position
12:18
Speaker 2: to release a blessing that was of such paramount importance
12:22
Speaker 2: that he says, go back and see what you had.
12:25
Speaker 2: It's not in anything you counted. God will always use
12:29
Speaker 2: something that was not counted to produce the miracle. You
12:34
Speaker 2: know the story how the little boy brings his lunch,
12:37
Speaker 2: no doubt, something his mother had packed for him to
12:39
Speaker 2: fish and five loads of bread, and Jesus takes the
12:43
Speaker 2: two fish and five loads of bread, commanding the disciples
12:46
Speaker 2: to have the crowd set down into groups of fifty
12:52
Speaker 2: groups of fifty. This took some time for hungry people
12:57
Speaker 2: five thousand men, not to mention women and children. Estimate
13:00
Speaker 2: maybe fifteen thousand people have to be coordinated into groups
13:03
Speaker 2: of fifty, organized, implemented, and placed in the seats and
13:07
Speaker 2: told to sit down, and they're already about to faint.
13:11
Speaker 2: But the best miracles in your life take time. Cannot
13:17
Speaker 2: be driven by hunger or need or necessity. Sometimes you've
13:21
Speaker 2: got to get yourself structured and in order so that
13:24
Speaker 2: you are ready to receive the magnitude of what God
13:27
Speaker 2: has for you. Just because you have a driving need
13:31
Speaker 2: does not mean that you can disperse with the order
13:35
Speaker 2: and the time and the structure that it's necessary to
13:38
Speaker 2: hold the weight of what God is going to do.
13:41
Speaker 2: Some people are so busy trying to get what God
13:44
Speaker 2: has that they don't provide the structure that it's necessary
13:48
Speaker 2: to sustain what they have been given. Or you don't
13:51
Speaker 2: hear what I'm saying, But the preponderance of time is
13:56
Speaker 2: spent preparing them for what God is about to do.
14:00
Speaker 2: And when they were all seated and in place and
14:03
Speaker 2: had all been counted, went from not counted to count it,
14:11
Speaker 2: then the miracle begins to occur. And He took it
14:16
Speaker 2: and he blessed it. I like to talk about that,
14:21
Speaker 2: because He's blessing something that is not enough. Until you
14:33
Speaker 2: can be thankful for something that is not enough, then
14:45
Speaker 2: what you have cannot be multiplied. Into what is more
14:50
Speaker 2: than enough. But when you can take it and say, Lord,
14:53
Speaker 2: I know this is not the job I wanted. I
14:55
Speaker 2: know this is not the house I wanted. I know
14:58
Speaker 2: this is not the marriage expected. I know this child
15:02
Speaker 2: is not living up to my expectation. But I still
15:05
Speaker 2: lift it up and I thank you for it. You'll
15:09
Speaker 2: never get the multiplication as long as you're ungrateful. But
15:13
Speaker 2: when you become thankful for what he has done, rather
15:17
Speaker 2: than waiting on what he is going to do. You
15:19
Speaker 2: know the story, and he took it and he blessed it.
15:29
Speaker 2: And when he took it and he blessed it, we
15:32
Speaker 2: know it was two fish and five loads of bread.
15:35
Speaker 2: We have a correct inventory. We are certain that he
15:38
Speaker 2: had two fish and five loads of bread when he
15:41
Speaker 2: blessed it. As he broke it, that's where we lose count.
15:49
Speaker 2: You understand then, that the blessing is in the breaking
16:01
Speaker 2: that refuses to be broken, refuses to be blessed. It
16:08
Speaker 2: is the breaking of life that produces the blessing of life. Now,
16:14
Speaker 2: I know a lot of you don't understand that because
16:16
Speaker 2: you yourselves have not been broken. But I have noticed
16:19
Speaker 2: in my life that the most blessed people I have
16:22
Speaker 2: ever met in my life have gone through something that
16:26
Speaker 2: broke them. Look at the neighbors, say have you ever
16:34
Speaker 2: been broken? The blessing? The blessing is in the breaking.
16:45
Speaker 2: And the more he broke it, the more it multiplied.
16:49
Speaker 2: And we can't keep count of it because every time
16:52
Speaker 2: he broke it, it multiplied in his hands. Every time.
16:58
Speaker 2: Can I take a moment and thank God for every
17:01
Speaker 2: breaking in my life, every every little time he snapped
17:08
Speaker 2: me and broke me and twisted me and taught me
17:12
Speaker 2: I thought he was killing me. He wasn't killing me.
17:17
Speaker 2: He was blessing me. Every time he broke me. Every
17:26
Speaker 2: time you left me, every time they forsook me, every
17:32
Speaker 2: time they betrayed me, every time they alienated me. They
17:38
Speaker 2: thought they were cursing me, but they were wrong. God
17:42
Speaker 2: was blessing me, and so and so it goes. Look
17:54
Speaker 2: at the neighbor and say, have you ever been broken?
17:59
Speaker 1: Have you ever? Have you ever been broken? Home? Broken?
18:10
Speaker 2: Heart broken, dreams broken, imaginations, broken, hopes broken. The greatest
18:21
Speaker 2: blessings come in the hardest breakings of your life. He
18:29
Speaker 2: fed the multitude through the breaking process until all of
18:35
Speaker 2: them had been served. This is the method whereby he
18:39
Speaker 2: uses Jesus does not feed them directly. He breaks it,
18:44
Speaker 2: gives it to the disciples, and then the disciples feed
18:49
Speaker 2: the people. You have to learn how to eat God's blessing,
18:55
Speaker 2: even if he brings it at somebody else's hand.
19:02
Speaker 1: Imagine sitting there with her.
19:04
Speaker 2: Father talking about I'm not gonna say nobody about Jesus.
19:07
Speaker 2: If Jesus don't margian it, I'm not eating. It's got
19:08
Speaker 2: to be the law. You would have starved.
19:13
Speaker 1: To death. He could have stopped saying.
19:22
Speaker 2: He knew what they had, he knew where it was,
19:26
Speaker 2: he knew how many it was. He could have stopped
19:29
Speaker 2: breaking it at the point the five thousand were fed.
19:34
Speaker 2: But the real power of the text is not in
19:38
Speaker 2: what they ate. The real power of the text isn't
19:43
Speaker 2: what they had left. He purposely designed it so that
19:50
Speaker 2: there would be leftovers. Now, a real good chef, I'm
19:56
Speaker 2: not talking about Grandma, A real good chef can get
20:01
Speaker 2: account of the guests and prepare the food in proportion
20:05
Speaker 2: to the people.
20:08
Speaker 1: God never misses.
20:10
Speaker 2: If he wanted to be precise, he could have been precise.
20:15
Speaker 2: He chose for them to have overflowed. Don't let people
20:28
Speaker 2: tell you that God just wants to give you enough.
20:35
Speaker 2: His name El Shadai means more than enough. Why would
20:41
Speaker 2: a god whose name means more than enough.
20:44
Speaker 1: Stop ad enough?
20:47
Speaker 2: Why would David say, my cup runneth over. Unless you've
20:52
Speaker 2: got a blind waitress. The waitress can see when the
20:56
Speaker 2: cup is full and stops pouring in proportion.
21:02
Speaker 1: To the size of the cup.
21:04
Speaker 2: But God says, when I pull you out a blessing,
21:07
Speaker 2: I am not limited to your capacity.
21:11
Speaker 1: To receive what I have.
21:13
Speaker 2: I intend for you to have overflow so that your
21:17
Speaker 2: children and your children's children and your children's children. I
21:30
Speaker 2: cooked a banana pudding the other day. I didn't want
21:36
Speaker 2: to do it, but up under duress and cores and
21:41
Speaker 2: I had to pull my apron out of storage and
21:46
Speaker 2: fix the banana pudding. I told them banana puddings have
21:49
Speaker 2: nothing to do with Thanksgiving. I said, that's a summer
21:52
Speaker 2: dessert with ribs and baked beans and potato salad. They said, well,
21:57
Speaker 2: it must be summer because we want you to fix
22:02
Speaker 2: and and and and I learned something or the children
22:05
Speaker 2: know something that I learned years ago. It's good on
22:09
Speaker 2: the first day, but if you wanted to really be right,
22:26
Speaker 2: it's all about those leftovers. On that second day, when
22:30
Speaker 2: all of those seasonings have become so intertwined that you
22:34
Speaker 2: can't tell what's what what one from the other where
22:38
Speaker 2: you can't the wafers have gotten together with the bananas
22:42
Speaker 2: and mixed all up.
22:49
Speaker 1: So Jesus says, here's not.
22:51
Speaker 2: De limit, here's here's my whole case this morning, Jesus
22:54
Speaker 2: says to them.
22:55
Speaker 1: When the whole event is over and.
22:58
Speaker 2: Everybody's about to leave, Jesus speaks to the disciples and says,
23:03
Speaker 2: gather up the scraps, and the Bible is careful to
23:08
Speaker 2: give us inventory of how much they had left. Twelve
23:13
Speaker 2: baskets full left. Now that's overcooking. When you got twelve
23:18
Speaker 2: baskets full left, you didn't count right, Twelve baskets full
23:22
Speaker 2: were left, and they loaded them on the boat to leave.
23:27
Speaker 2: Now here's my dilemma. Why did he have them gather
23:33
Speaker 2: the scraps? And I would like to think in my
23:39
Speaker 2: mind that maybe he thought they would get hungry again.
23:44
Speaker 2: But my problem with that is if they were scraps, fishbones,
23:55
Speaker 2: half eaten pieces crust off the bread, it doesn't seem
24:02
Speaker 2: very appetizing that gathered leftovers stored in baskets could be
24:10
Speaker 2: preserved for a future meal in the presence of a
24:14
Speaker 2: God who created something out of nothing. Why do we
24:17
Speaker 2: need to make these kinds of provisions for the next
24:20
Speaker 2: meal when we didn't provide the first meal.
24:22
Speaker 1: I'm trying to just help me.
24:24
Speaker 2: I'm trying to understand the logic of saving the scrapes.
24:30
Speaker 3: I have to cut the message off right there. But
24:32
Speaker 3: you've just gotten a little bit of a taste. You'll
