At Your Word I Will Let Down The Net

But Simon answered and said to Him, “Master, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I will let down the net.” - Luke 5:5.  

At Your word I will let down the net

              Jesus told Simon to put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch. Simon told Jesus that they have worked hard all night but caught nothing. When He had stopped speaking, He said to Simon, “Launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.” But Simon answered and said to Him, “Master, we have toiled all night and caught nothing; nevertheless at Your word I will let down the net.” - Luke 5:4,5. 

When they had done this, they caught a great number of fish, and their net was breaking

               They caught a great number of fish, and their net was breaking as they obeyed God's Word and let down the net with trust on Him. And when they had done this, they caught a great number of fish, and their net was breaking. So they signaled to their partners in the other boat to come and help them. And they came and filled both the boats, so that they began to sink - Luke 5:6,7. 

Trust & Obey God's Word

                Let us trust and obey God's Word like Simon as His plans for us prosper us and give us a future and hope. "For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."- Jeremiah 29:11. “For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways,” declares the Lord. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts - Isaiah 55:8,9.

                                                                     

PRAYER: Dear Lord, Help us to trust You and obey your Word in all our situations. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
