HOW MANY LOAVES HAVE YE?

In the middle of hopelessness and a state of dilemma, Jesus asked a very intriguing question, "How many loaves have ye?"          It is very unlikely to fathom with the hope that any solution could be offered when found in the situation as recorded in Mark 8:1-10. There was hunger, weakness, despair, hopelessness, scarcity and death in view.  The disciples' response was indeed nothing different from mine or yours except we are schooled and able to comprehend what Jesus did to arrest the situation. To have a smooth sail and end well as a Christian on earth, it is important to understand the know-how and steps required to tackle many issues that bedevil us.  As far as the present world is concerned, problems abound. Ranging from health, finance, marriage, family, business, spiritual, and otherwise, every man is encumbered daily with pockets of troubles.  However, these problems are not designed to mar us, rather, they help in shaping our lives for the greater gl

POWER TO GET WEALTH

I have never seen a man whose choice in this world is to live in abject poverty. Without much ado, everyone in this horrible situation finds themselves there not willingly.
Of course, everyone loves to live in splendor, swimming in ocean of riches, sleeping in luxury and waking up every day in affluence. You actually deserve nothing less; life is designed for man’s enjoyment. But alas, poverty is here and its mission is simply to make life miserable for as many as found in its coven. 
Poverty is a disease and it kills faster than bullet. Check this out, it is once said that average person dies at 25 but is buried at 75. A life in poverty is lived in the non-existence, your voice is not heard even when you made the loudest noise.
Many have struggled all their lives to overcome this giant called poverty, but all to no avail.
Is there any unseen force behind poverty?
Is there a way out of this menace? 
What exactly is needed to be done?
And, how could it be totally eradicated? 
So many questions without an answer……….   
But, the bible made it clear that it is God that gives power to get wealth.
Deuteronomy 8:18 “But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day”
Information, they say is power and as a result, lectures have been organised in many quarters vis-à-vis the subject of poverty and how to overcome the situation but nothing to show for it. A lot of seminars on how to break even and say no to poverty has been set up and many people in this web of quagmire has being in attendance severally but all without result. The unthinkable however is the fact that the resource person in many of these seminars is also as incompetent as any of their trainees especially in the field of success.  The fact remains no man has the technical know-how of wealth except it is released by God.
Success indeed has been recorded over the year of many individual as a result of strength channelled in the right direction; however, many unsuccessful individual equally worked hard, unfortunately their strength was channelled in a wrong direction. What then can we say about this unwarranted experience? It behoves us therefore to know that strength channelled only in the right direction produces result. But, how do you know the right direction; except it is revealed by God.
The children of Israel struggled for so many years to regain their freedom from captivity having come to Egypt in search of corn as a result of famine that plagued the world at the time. They served as slaves for four hundred and thirty years in the hand of Pharaoh until God finally came to their rescue. The question is why could they not fight for their freedom all by themselves? Your guess is as good as mine, they do not know how.
Today, many people are weary of their terrible predicament in the hand of poverty and are jet ready to opt out of the traumatic situation but the know-how is not available.
There is no doubt, information is power; but getting access to the right information may be a daunting task and that is why the bible is made available to us today, for therein we have access to all the treasures of wisdom. Colossians 2:2-3, “That their hearts might be comforted, being knit together in love, and unto all riches of the full assurance of understanding, to the acknowledgement of the mystery of God, and of the Father, and of Christ; In whom are hid all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge”
God spoke in Deuteronomy 8:18, “But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day”
It is important we note that wealth is a matter of covenant between God and a particular group of people, not everybody. Who is God talking about? He is talking about Abraham and his seed which is Jesus Christ.
Galatians 3:16, “Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, and to seeds, as of many; but as of one, and to thy seed, which is Christ”
Now if you are in Christ Jesus, you are in the number and God is mandatory to establish His covenant which He swore unto Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in your life.
Another point to note is that God does not give you wealth; He only gives you POWER to get wealth. You need to stop looking for wealth because you may never find it until you have gotten the power. Without power, all effort is in vain. Wealth does not answer to all forms of struggle, it answers only to power. To every locked door, there is always a key. Notwithstanding how strong a man can be except he is a thief, there will always be a need for the key each time the door is to be opened. In this wise, power is the key to open the door of wealth and this key is in the hand of God for it is He that gives you power to make wealth.
Of a truth, many without the key have broken into the locked up room of wealth. They are today known in the physical realm as celebrity with so much fame and glamour but in the spiritual realm they are slaves to mammon.  
What is power? Power is having the technical know-how of wealth.
Power is, knowing the right direction to channel your energy.
Power is having access to the right information
Power is interpreted as capability, authority and control.
It is the ability to generate an outcome, make things happen and produce result effortlessly.
Power is the combination of strength and knowledge meticulously put together to get work done. Moreover, when God talks about power, He is talking about the Holy Spirit.
Acts 1:8, “But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth”
Have you received the Holy Spirit into your life? If you are born again, you have the Holy Spirit in you. He is the one with whom you can access the room to your locked up wealth. He has been assigned to guide you into all truth, teach you all skills that are required, strengthen you when you are weak, comfort you when you are in pain, help you as an Helper, live and dwell inside of you to give you an undeniable access to supernatural life.
Engage the Holy Spirit in your life today, meditate and listen to Him speaking on your inside, give Him the required attention and you will never regret you did. He cannot be wrong for whatever He hears from the Master, that will He also tells you.
John 16:13, “Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come”
Just go ahead and do whatever He says, you will surely prosper.
