At Thy Word

 Luke 5: 4 - 9

Our text passage shows us the impact of God's word.

The word of God can surprise or astonish you with the results it produces.

It has been commonly said in Christian circles that  "one word from God can change your life forever" 

This is a very true saying.

A very acceptable saying.

The words of Jesus Christ are the words of God.

At the word of Jesus, the supernatural happens.

At the word of Jesus, mighty things  happen.

At the word of Jesus, wonders happen.

At the word of Jesus, miracles occur.

Peter needed a harvest, he needed a breakthrough, he needed results.

He had worked for it, he had toiled, he had done what he knew to do, after all Peter was an experienced fisherman.

Despite Peter's experience and hard work, Peter didn't have the breakthrough he sought on the job.

Many people are like Peter in a sense.

They are good and experienced at what they do. They have put in the work, they have followed the rules, they got the education, the qualifications, the training, and they've followed the tricks of the trade but they are dissatisfied with the results they have.

Like Peter must have felt after toiling all night and catching nothing, they are not happy with where they are and it seems life has dealt them an unfair blow.

It's people like this that God came for.

Isaiah 61:1-3

Like Peter, people in this category can have a breakthrough, a harvest, a miracle.

They can have the miracle they seek by God's word.

At God's word, Peter ended up having more than enough.

At God's word, Peter ended up having a miracle catch.

At God's word, Peter's long awaited harvest arrived.

At God's word, Peter's frustration was wiped away.

At God's word, Peter's shame and embarrassment was terminated.

At God's word Peter's scattered blessing gathered together.

At God's word Peter received more than he could think of, ask for, or imagine! 

At God's word, the unusual can happen instantly.

God is no respecter of person.

Acts 10:34

He can give you your own version of the miracle He gave Peter.

The key to our breakthrough is obeying God's specific instruction to each of us.

Deuteronomy 28:1,2

Peter's breakthrough came in obedience to the instruction God gave him.

Your breakthrough will come the same way.

You need to hear God.

You need God's instruction(s) for you.

Proverbs 16:20

At God's word (instruction) you will breakthrough!

Your Father Hears

Matthew 6:5,6 Prayer should be directed to the Father. Jesus showed this when He taught His disciples the Lord's prayer. It should be a great comfort to you to know that the creator and God of all hears you when you pray. This should encourage you to pray and keep praying. In our day to day relationships with people our communication will reduce towards those who don't pay attention when we're talking to them. The good thing about God is that He is never distracted. Know you have His attention when you pray . He can be communicated with. He hears, He created the ears. Psalm 94:9 Jesus encouraged prayer. Matthew 26:40 Jesus taught prayer. Luke 11:1,2 If Jesus prayed, you will need to pray. Why Should You Pray? *Pray because prayer brings God's intervention. Isaiah 38:5,6 *Pray because that's how you are authorized to communicate with God. 1 Thessalonians 15:16-18 *Pray because it is a major way of birthing God's will on earth. 1 Kings 18...

Out Of The Ashes

Isaiah 61:3 Ashes are not seen as useful substances. Ashes are waste that's thrown away. Ashes are what is left after a substance is burnt out. Your life may seem like ashes right now but something good and beautiful can come out of it when it's given to God. You may feel like an ash yourself. You may be feeling burnt out from unpleasant experiences of the past, the previous week, the last Month , or the the last year and life's battles may have left you burnt out. Know that out of your ashes can come beauty! God is the one who gives us beauty for ashes. God can make you and your life beautiful! Don't make the ashes your permanent state. God can make your season of ashes work out into a season of glory for you. Romans 8:28 The phoenix is a mystical and fictional bird that burns out after living for about six centuries. After burning itself out it rises from it's ashes renewed, youthful and revitalized to live through another life cycle. Like the p...
