One day as Jesus was standing by
the Lake, with the people crowding around him and
listening to the word of God, he saw at the water's
edge two boats, left there by the fishermen, who were
washing their nets. He got into one of the boats,
the one belonging to Simon, and asked him to put out
a little from shore. Then he sat down and taught the
people from the boat.
When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, "Put
out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch.”
Simon answered, "Master, we've worked hard all
night and haven't caught anything. But because you
say so, I will let down the nets."
When they had done so, they caught such a large number
of fish that their nets began to break. So they signaled
their partners in the other boat to come and help
them, and they came and filled both boats so full
that they began to sink.
When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus' knees
and said, "Go away from me, Lord; I am a sinful
man!" For he and all his companions were astonished
at the catch of fish they had taken, and so were James
and John, the sons of Zebedee, Simon's partners.
The command was to put out the nets. The promise was
that there would be a catch.
Maybe Peter tried to argue with Jesus that night was
the best night for fishing. If they had not caught
anything at night, why in the world should they catch
anything in the daytime?
Peter wants to prove Jesus, He was wrong. Peter was
the expert. But Jesus was the Master. He loves to
see you increase.
Satan tried to inject us, to make us discouraged.
Never forget that He is afraid of rejoicing hearts.
He can not stay in the presence of genuine praise.
Is Jesus Loving----Stay with Him.
Is Jesus powerful----Stay with Him.
Is Jesus Rich----Stay with Him.
There is joy in dwelling with Him.
Upgrade your trust, Upgrade
your love, Upgrade your worship, Upgrade your worship,
and Upgrade your prayer and fasting.
I believe you have a unique call in your life that
can only be found in God. God has something for us
that are far beyond your widest dreams.
The object of warfare is victory, the object of victory
is occupation. We as a warrior our mindset is always
focused on victory, we do not retreat.
The enemy intimidates you, we can fight back by praising
and worship our Lord Jesus Christ.
Wisdom from the Lord is our weapon needed to win the
battle.
