FRIDAY JANUARY 24
“All…were
astonished at the catch of fish.” Lk 5:9 NIV
GOD
WILL HELP YOU TO SUCCEED
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…Then Jesus said to Simon, ‘Don’t be afraid; from now on
you will catch men.’ So they…left everything and followed him” (vv. 4-11 NIV).
Here are seven life-changing truths you need to learn: (1) Jesus will come to
where you work and help you. (2) When what you are doing is not working, He
will show you a better way. (3) Even though it may not make sense at the
moment, do what HE tells you. (4) The success HE has in mind for you is greater
than anything you can envision for yourself. (5) Your existing systems may not
be able to handle what He has in mind, so be willing to change how you do things.
(6) When you experience His goodness, you’ll fall at His feet and acknowledge
Him as your Lord. (7) When you realize what He has in mind for you, you’ll
leave everything and follow Him.
