THOUGHT OF THE DAY.
“And Simon (Peter) answered, Master, we toiled all night [exhaustingly]
and caught nothing [in our nets]. But on the ground of Your word, I will
lower the nets [again].
And when they had done this, they caught a great number of fish;
and as their nets were [at the point of] breaking,
They signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and take hold
with them. And they came and filled both boats,
so that they began to sink.”
Luke 4:5-7
Peter and his team had spent the whole night toiling trying to catch fish but caught
nothing.
With all their experience, resources and strength they came up empty!
Is that not a perfect picture of what happens when we rely on our own strength
instead of relying on the strength of YAH??
We need to understand that in our own strength we will fail, period!
No amount of money, no amount of experience, no amount of strength will ever
be enough.
But look at what happens when Peter listened to Yeshua;
“And when they had done this, they caught a great number of fish;”
They caught an incredible amount of fish. The number was so great
that they had to call their partners to help them.
But the number was still so great that both boats began to sink!
We need to stop relying on ourselves and look to YAH.
It is when we respond to Him and obey Him that things begin to
happen.
Impossible things begin to happen as well when we look to
Him instead of looking to ourselves.
We have a choice today, we can either “toil all night in our strength”
but come up empty or we can obey what Yeshua has told us and see
breakthrough in the situation we are in at the moment?
The choice is yours!
Bless you friends.
