Jesus is our gracious provider! He is truly our faithful One. He not only provides for these followers, but makes sure to give them more than they need. He gives more than enough every time we are in need.
"Jesus therefore perceiving that they were intending to come and take Him by force, to make Him king, WITHDREW again to the mountain by Himself alone."
Like in John 4: 1-3 when Jesus departs Judea into Galilee, He knew that His purpose for coming to earth was not to be hailed as king. His reign as king would come later with His second coming... once again like in John 4, He knew that He had been sent to live, die and resurrect for us to be saved from our sins. He truly did all in complete obedience to His Father's will.
