Scripture for July 28, 2024

John 6:1-21


6 After this Jesus went to the other side of the Sea of Galilee, (also called the Sea of Tibe′ri-as). 2 And a multitude followed him, because they saw the signs which he did on those who were sick. 3 Jesus went up on the mountain, and there sat down with his disciples. 4 Now the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was at hand. 5 When Jesus lifted up his eyes, and saw that a multitude was coming to him, he said to Philip, “How are we to buy bread, so that these people may eat?” 6 This he said to test him, for he himself knew what he would do. 7 Philip answered him, “Two hundred denarii would not buy enough bread for each of them to get a little.”


8 One of his disciples, Andrew, Simon Peter’s brother, said to him, 9 “There is a little boy here who has five barley loaves and two fish; but what are they among so many?” 10 Jesus said, “Make the people sit down.” Now there was much grass in the place; so the men sat down, in number about five thousand. 11 Jesus then took the loaves, and when he had given thanks, he distributed them to those who were sitting down; so also the fish, as much as they wanted. 12 And when they had eaten their fill, he told his disciples, “Gather up the fragments left over, that nothing may be lost.” 13 So they gathered them up and filled twelve baskets with fragments from the five barley loaves, left by those who had eaten.


14 When the people saw the sign which he had done, they said, “This is indeed the prophet who is to come into the world!”


15 Perceiving then that they were about to come and take him by force to make him king, Jesus withdrew again up the mountainside alone.


16 When evening came, his disciples went down to the sea, 17 got into a boat, and started across the sea to Caper′na-um. It was now dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them. 18 The sea rose up because a strong wind was blowing. 19 When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and drawing near to the boat. They were frightened, 20 but he said to them, “It is I; do not be afraid.” 21 Then they were glad to take him into the boat, and immediately the boat was at the land to which they were going.

 

Ephesians 3:14-21

 

14 For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, 15 from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named. 16 I pray that, according to the riches of God’s glory, God may grant that you may be strengthened in your inner being with power through God’s Spirit, 17 and that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith, as you are being rooted and grounded in love. 18 I pray that you may have the power to comprehend, with all the saints, what is the breadth and length and height and depth, 19 and to know the love of Christ that surpasses knowledge, so that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.


20 Now to the One who by the power at work within us is able to do far more abundantly than all we can ask or imagine, 21 to God be glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations, forever and ever. Amen.
