Thomas A Kampis once said “Instant obedience is the only kind of obedience there is; delayed obedience is disobedience. Whoever strives to withdraw from obedience, withdraws from Grace.”
Luke 5:7 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.
Yesterday we learnt how hearing God's voice helps us to obey God and be blessed. Today we will look another aspect of becoming a blessing unto others by obeying God.
Peter and all the other fisherman had caught nothing throughout the night. All of them would go home, empty-handed and probably disappointing their loved ones. But that was not the case to be.
Once Peter heard the Lord's voice and obeyed him, he not only had enough fish for him but was becoming a blessing unto others as well. Through Peter Jesus ministered to the needs of all the other fishermen as well. Perhaps we need to realize our obedience matter for many around us. When we obey God we can bless many. Be a blessing.
