Peter as shared by Laura Crone John 4:34 God is a good God. He wants good things for you and has set forth principles to ignite great things in your life. I want it!
My meat is to serve the Lord. John 5:30
I seek not my own will. 2 Corinthians 5:14
The love of Christ constrains us... Live for Him. To constrain is to reach out over and over. The love of Christ constantly reaches out to us. Have a steady diet of going to the Word. There are certain principles to staying on the Word. If something has moved in your life, it's not God that's moved. Peter was a man's man. He had a family, was a fisherman, and had his own way of doing things. John 1:28-44
Matthew 4:13- end
Follow me Peter and Andrew. The stopped what they were doing. They were immediately obedient to his call. James, John, Zebedee, their father immediately followed him too. Mark 1:21, 22, 29-37
Luke 4:42-44
Peter stayed in Bethsaida
Luke 5:1-
In Matthew the disciples "left their nets" to fish for men. Here in Luke they are back to their fishing business not following JC in Luke 4:44. Peter is acting a little yucky. Maybe because Peter thought he should've stayed in Bethsaida. JC said launch out and cast your netS. Peter says, "I will let down one net." Whatever your business, do what the Word says. When we do what the Word says instead if being wise in our on thinking, we get blessed. You don't know better. Tap into the Spirit of God first! I need to redirect my heart to what you have to say God from what I want to do. Peters specific sin is pride. He'd been called to be a fisher of men and he was not doing that. Matthew 11:21 Bethsaida had an unbelief problem. JC was doing the will of the Father when he left and knew Bethsaida had a problem. He didn't tell Peter that and didn't have to. Luke 5:8-10
This is a great moment here. The beginning of Peter's ministry. He's decided, "Not my will but thine.". From that point further Peter faithfully followed. "They forsook all." The love of Christ had constrained him."
