Day 80 – At Your Word

⁴ When He had stopped speaking, He said to Simon, “Launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a catch.” ⁵ 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 (NKJV)

It does not matter how much you have toiled, or how much effort you have put into a venture that does not seem to produce any profit. If the Lord is giving you a word to go once more into it, or giving you a direction to go at any particular point in your life, do as Simon did, respond. No matter how your night was, or how your yesterday was like, today is a new day! Let a fresh hope arise in your spirit. Jesus is appearing today and saying to you: ‘I will give you a fresh start’. Do not start looking for, or replaying in your mind, all your past negative experiences. Just believe Him!

The crippled man at the pool of Bethsaida was waiting for a man to help him – he had waited for thirty eight disappointing year! He knew no man to help him – until Jesus came by! Don’t start wondering if you have enough human connection to bail you out of your current situation; believe the word of the Lord to you and respond to Him in faith.

Where you have failed before, God’s word to you right now is ‘launch out unto the deep and let down your net for a catch’. Act in faith and obedience, and you will see the manifestation of the Lord. Today will bring you outstanding success. Amen.
