Always Begin & end your day with Jesus,

Ø
Luke 5:
1-11 > God takes ordinary to make them extraordinary.
i.
The setting for the miracle > Jesus took the
place & position to himself so everybody can hear him, Around Him a crowd
had gathered, listening to Him proclaim the word of God. Beyond the crowd of
those who were pressing in on the Lord Jesus, there was the Sea of Galilee, and
Peter’s ship was pulled up on the shore. He had spent long and fruitless fishing
night. Jesus would momentarily use the boat as His pulpit, but He was intent on
making fishermen fishers of men.
ii.
The catch of a lifetime > He gave new
direction to Peter > God will show up in your life with reason. When he starts
to neat your life, nobody knows except him to finish work of your life from
ordinary to extraordinary. Jesus asked Peter to put out to deeper water, and to
let down the nets for a catch. Jesus was issuing both a command and a promise.
The command was to put out the nets. The promise was that there would be a
catch. And what a catch it would be!
iii.
They started on ordinary day with their own
imagination to watering their nets.
iv.
Nevertheless
– If you act on God’s word, He will change your situation and elevate you to
the extraordinary level.
v.
Then Peter let down the net- God wants us to let
all the things to him & allow him to operate to bring extraordinary change
in our life.
vi.
You should become like Peter to respond God’s
call.
vii.
Response > Peter walked away from the fish he
caught because he recognizes Jesus is better than the fish he caught > Peter
left it all for the cause of Christ. Jesus showed that He was able to provide.
He was sovereign in the matter of work, as well as in all other matters.
viii.
The call to follow Jesus require these fishermen
to leave their career, it required them to begin an entirely new career. Jesus
likened the new career of the disciples to the old. Peter becomes fishers of
men to catch the sickness, addiction to pull up the harvest to the lord. Following Jesus begins with the realization
of our inadequacies and needs. Those who came to our Lord and followed
Him in the gospels were those in desperate need. Jesus Himself said that He
came to seek and to save the lost.
ix.
Following
Jesus requires faith in Him as our all-sufficient Savior. Peter found
himself to be a failure at fishing and a sinner in life, He found Christ to be
sovereign, righteous, and all-sufficient.
x.
If we
follow Jesus, we must do what He does according to his way. Jesus came
“to seek and to save” the lost.
xi.
If you have any skill in your profession,
transform your skill for the kingdom of God > let Jesus show up on your work and you are assured you will succeed in new task
