Bread from Heaven Matthew 6:32-44
Corrupt Greedy Leaders Nothing New!
False shepherds Don’t feed the flock Don’t strengthen the weak Don’t care for the sick Don’t bind up the broken Don’t bring back the scattered Don’t seek the lost sheep
I Myself will search for the sheep I will deliver them I will bring them back I will feed the flock I will heal the sick I will seek the lost I will strengthen the week
Rejection of Jesus in Nazareth Sending out the 12 disciples Beheading of John the Baptist The 12 return-exhilarated but exhausted!
Renewal and Refreshment The crowds get there first!
Great compassion! Sheep without a shepherd Sheep who need a shepherd
Send them away! We are exhausted We have no food to feed them It’s getting late
You feed them!
We can’t feed them! Way too expensive! We don’t have the resources
Be willing- If you love me Offer what you have Trust Jesus for the rest!
No need He can’t fill No wound He can’t fill He will feed and refresh His sheep
Go- Feed my sheep!
