Simon Peter said to the other disciples, "I am going fishing." They said to him, "We are going with you also." They went out and immediately got into the boat, and that night they caught nothing. John 21:3
Simon Peter said to the other disciples, "I am going fishing." They said to him, "We are going with you also." They went out and immediately got into the boat, and that night they caught nothing. John 21:3
Jesus had risen and had appeared to them, and they didn't seem to know what they were to do now that their Master was gone, so they went fishing. The next morning Jesus was on the shore and said to them, "Children have you any food?" They answered Him, "No."
Jesus then told them to cast their net on the right side of the boat and they would catch some. This was a lesson in making disciples, being fishers of men and so they obeyed the Lord and cast their net and caught a multitude of fish! To be led by His Spirit is the key to evangelism and disciple making as they learned from His instruction.
This lesson applies to answered prayer, healing and deliverance, evangelism and anything else you are attempting to do in the ministry of Jesus. To be led by the Holy Spirit and not by your own understanding. Are you fishing on the right side of the boat?
Simon Peter went up and dragged the net to land, full of large fish, one hundred and fifty-three; and although there were so many, the net was not broken. John 21:11
