Peter had a rough night fishing. He did all that he knew to do. He was still dealing with the disappointment of not catching anything when Jesus asked to use his boat. When Jesus finished His sermon, He told Peter to cast his net in the deep. In the natural, this didn’t make much sense because the fish could see the net during the day and would naturally swim away from the net. However, when Peter acted on Jesus’s instructions, they caught so many fish that their boats begin to sink. There are times when God will give us instructions that may not make sense in the natural, however it is always beneficial that we obey God. Obedience always pays. When we are willing and obedient, we will eat the good of the land (Isaiah 1:19).
