When You First Don't Succeed...

WHEN YOU FIRST DON'T SUCCEED

5 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.”

6 When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break. 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. (Luke 5:5-7)

When we first don't succeed, try and try again is a formula for failure. Because if you ever want different results from the result you've already got, it is not try and try again..It is "when we first don't succeed make changes and then try again".

Jesus in the center of your lives will begin to see change and increase in your lives. Increase is not so we can live a comfortable and luxurious lives..full of selfish extravagant indulgence. Increase comes into our lives so that we can begin to help others increase as well 
(see verse 7).

Increase will overflow your boat forever even as you are helping others, your boat will not be in lack but will always overflow. This is because God will always supply seed for the sower...Be a giver...be a generous giver !

Jesus told them to make changes. Go and fish according to His word and wisdom. Its not just about location, or product, or methods..its all about listening to Him directing and leading you. Jesus told them to go fish because fishes comes out at His command and wisdom !

Go deep...is to wait longer, pray more, fast more, be patient more..

Jesus is our more than enough !

Information introduces you to change..does not cause change..JEsus will bring change and when we want to change...we will change !

So one of the greatest lesson of life I've ever learnt is this..."Learn to Listen"
