TOPIC: Lend Jesus Your Canoe For His Pulpit
TEXT: Luke 5:1-5
MESSAGE
In this account, Jesus ask Simon Peter to lend Him his boat to use as a pulpit to preach unto the crowd that thronged Him. When Peter agreed, Jesus like Elijah ask the woman of zarephath to go further to prepare him first a meal as the woman was to give him water, also prayed for Peter to thrust out the canoe farther a little from the land and hold it in anchor while He (Jesus) preached the sermon. Brethren, when you lend Jesus your life or wealth or prosperity as pulpit, He pull you out of the pit of ignorance and wanton destruction of the devil. For you to achieve success in life, you need to obey simple instruction.
When the master was through with the sermon, God who is not unrighteous to forget our work and labour of love, which ye have shrewed towards His name in that ye have minister to the saints and do minister (Heb. 6:10) asked Peter to launch out into the deep and let down his nets, for a draught. Although Peter did argue as a professional and one who had mastery in fishing knowing that the day light had come and the crystal clear river would not allow the fishes to surface and coupled with the fact that it was this same river that he had toiled all night when it was easier to catch fish suddenly realized that it was Jesus who was asking him to do so and in verse 5 of our text answered,
"Nevertheless, at thy word, I will let down the net". Beloved, with Jesus, there is no impossibility. Stop looking at the situation and never work any longer by sight. Work by faith and you will be in for a draught (a big catch). Good day.
