But the crowds found out and followed Him. He welcomed them and spoke to them about the kingdom of God, and He healed those who needed healing.But the multitudes, perceiving it, followed him.

… he don't want to just add to you he wants to multiply you i can paraphrase it for you best if you look in luke chapter 9 verse 10 through 17 but long story short um this was probably theologians believe the largest crowd jesus ever spoke to and um he it's it's chronicled in the bible as the miracle of 5 000 the fish and the loaves but what ended up happening at this moment is that Jesus is preaching. Start at 9 o'clock, 10 o'clock, 12 o'clock, 1 o'clock, 4 o'clock, 5 o'clock, 6 o'clock, 7 o'clock, and he's still preaching. Literally, the disciples was like, yo, when is bro about to stop preaching? I'll prove it to you right now. Look what it says in verse 12. It says, when the day begin to wear away.

… Jesus gives the meaning of the parable of the sower in Luke chapter nine, verse 11, where he says, this is the meaning of the parable. Excuse me, Luke chapter eight, verse 11. This is the meaning of the parable. The seed is God's word. The seeds that fell on the footpath represent those who hear the message, but only to have the devil come and take it away from their hearts and prevent them from believing and being saved. The seeds on the rocky soil represent those who hear the message and receive it with joy, but since they don't have deep roots, they believe for a while, but they fall away when they face temptation. The seeds that fell among the thorns represent those who hear the message, but all too quickly the message is crowded out by the cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and they never grow into maturity.

The 103rd Psalm. Bless the Lord, O my soul, and all that is within me, bless his holy name. Bless the Lord, O my soul, and do not forget all his benefits. who forgives all your iniquity, who heals all your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit, who crowns you with steadfast love and mercy, who satisfies you with good as long as you live so that your youth is renewed like the eagles. The Lord works vindication and justice for all who are oppressed. He made known his ways to Moses, his acts to the people of Israel, The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love. He will not always accuse, nor will he keep his anger forever. He does not deal with us according to our sins, nor repay us according to our iniquities. For as the heavens are high above the earth, so great is his steadfast love toward those who fear him. As far as the east is from the west, so far he removes our transgressions from us. …
