OUR FATHER WHO GUIDES US RIGHTLY EVEN WHEN IT IS COUNTER-INTUITIVE

The book of Luke chapter 5 verses 5 - 7 says this;

Simon answered, “Master, we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything. But because you say so, I will let down the nets.”

When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break. 

So they signaled their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.

The Lord Jesus had borrowed a boat  belonging to Simon Peter so that he could  teach the crowd who were standing on the shore while standing on the boat.

When the teaching was done, the Lord told  Simon to sail into deep water and let down the nets for a catch.

Here we join the excerpt where Simon said that they had been working all night but had caught no fish but because it was the Lord asking, he would make another attempt.

When they did this, the nets filled to their  breaking point with fish and they needed help to haul the catch to shore and even with help, the boats were sinking under the load.

The Lord will give us a counter-intuitive instruction and in following that instruction, things will drastically change.

Amen.
