Remember the Miracle Jesus Did with 5 Loaves and 2 Fish? It Just Happened Again!
“We saw a genuine multiplication miracle last night.”
Seth Barnes recently posted
something amazing on his Radical Living blog. His team of volunteers in
Lesvos, Greece was helping feed and clothe refugees fleeing Turkey after
making the treacherous journey across the Mediterranean Sea.
Barnes’ team faced the challenge of having 400 hungry people to feed, but only enough food to feed 200 of them. One of the team members, Dayna Bickam, described what happened next:
Our God still works miracles!
But Jesus said, “They need not go away; you give them something to eat.” They said to him, “We have only five loaves here and two fish.” And he said, “Bring them here to me.” Then he ordered the crowds to sit down on the grass, and taking the five loaves and the two fish, he looked up to heaven and said a blessing. Then he broke the loaves and gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the crowds. And they all ate and were satisfied. And they took up twelve baskets full of the broken pieces left over. And those who ate were about five thousand men, besides women and children. (Matthew 14:16-21)

“We saw a genuine multiplication miracle
last night. We had almost 400 people in our block at Moria last night
and enough food to give every other person food.
We prayed for Jesus to provide and
thanked him for loving these people extraordinarily well. We had 7 of
these black trays of food.
These are the three we had left over when
we were done handing out food. People were bringing us the left over
unopened meals. When we took up all the trays to stack outside there
were ten of them. I know my God is able, He is true and He is good.”
So, they fed 400 refugees with seven trays of food (enough for 200
people). When the people finished eating, there were 10 trays left over.Our God still works miracles!
