Kingdom Fragments

Sep 22, 2024

This powerful message challenges us to examine what we do with the spiritual fragments God leaves in our lives. Drawing from the miracle of the loaves and fishes in John 6, we're confronted with a sobering reality: after Jesus fed the multitudes, He commanded the disciples to gather up the leftover fragments so that nothing would be lost. Yet the people who had just been fed walked away, leaving the leftovers behind. This becomes a profound metaphor for how we handle the Word of God, the anointing, and the gifts we receive. Are we faithful stewards of what God gives us, or do we consume what we need and walk away, leaving the rest to waste? The message repeatedly emphasizes a kingdom principle found throughout Scripture: to those who have and are faithful, more will be given; but from those who are unfaithful, even what they have will be taken away. This isn't just about money or material possessions—it's about how we handle revelation, spiritual gifts, opportunities to share our faith, and even the people God brings into our lives. When we receive a word from God, do we meditate on it, study it, and let it transform us? Or do we simply say 'that was a good message' and move on? The call here is to become faithful gatherers of fragments, reproducing ourselves spiritually by sharing what we've received, discipling others, and ensuring nothing God gives us goes to waste. The ultimate goal is to hear those precious words: 'Well done, thou good and faithful servant.'
