Do It Exactly
If God has given you a rhema word, don’t even second-guess it. Do it exactly.
“When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into the deep, and let down your nets for a catch.” Simon answered him, “Master, we worked all night, and took nothing; but at your word I will let down the net.” When they had done this, they caught a great multitude of fish, and their net was breaking. They beckoned to their partners in the other boat, that they should come and help them. They came, and filled both boats, so that they began to sink.” (Luke 5:4-7 WEB)
Jesus told Peter to let down the nets for a catch, but Peter skeptically only let down one net.
Why? Peter thought that based on his experience as a fisherman, it would be impossible to catch any fish. He let down one net just out of politeness towards Jesus.
What happened? Peter and his partners began to haul in much more fish than that one net could handle.
If you think you have seen it all before, you haven’t seen anything yet. God can do a new thing that man calls impossible.
For man, flying was once thought to be impossible. But now we have different types of aircraft to transport people across the sky.
We cannot outsmart God. His instructions are given in a short and simple way. When He gives you a set of instructions, whether through a sermon, a sign, a vision, or dream, just do it exactly even if you don’t understand the reason right now.
God has your best interests at heart—in this life and in the eternal age to come!
The miraculous catch of fishes is one of the thirty-seven recorded miracles worked by Jesus Christ in the four gospels.
I expound on His miracles in “Messiah’s Miracles: The Power of Having Faith in Jesus Christ”. In reading it, you will see God’s heart of love and grace for you. It will stir up your faith to receive miraculous breakthroughs in your own life: https://bit.ly/messiahs-miracles

The Treasure is in your Hands
“He said to me, “Don’t seal up the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is at hand. He who acts unjustly, let him act unjustly still. He who is filthy, let him be filthy still. He who is righteous, let him do righteousness still. He who is holy, let him be holy still.”” (Revelation 22:10-11 WEB)
People have free will, and they will choose what they want to.
It is not your job to convince people that they should believe in Jesus. God did not send us to do sales for His kingdom.
Your privilege is to announce the Good News of Jesus Christ, and let the Holy Spirit do the persuading in the hearers’ hearts.
Those who will believe at this point in time will believe. Those who won’t, won’t. Simple as that!
Jesus likened preaching the Gospel to catching fishes. If you toss your net in for a catch, and you draw it up after, will you care about the fishes inside the net, or will you fret about those who swam away?
If you’re like me, you will probably be happy about the fishes you caught, and ignore those that got away.
“When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into the deep, and let down your nets for a catch.” Simon answered him, “Master, we worked all night, and took nothing; but at your word I will let down the net.” When they had done this, they caught a great multitude of fish, and their net was breaking.” (Luke 5:4-6 WEB)
Want to catch more fishes? Toss more nets whenever the Holy Spirit leads you to let your net down for a catch. He can show you the right place and right time to sow the Gospel in a person’s heart.
A soul winner is not a door-to-door salesman. He is led by the omniscient Spirit of God, who sees all the outcomes of every time and action. He can make your preaching effective and fruitful.
““Don’t give that which is holy to the dogs, neither throw your pearls before the pigs, lest perhaps they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you to pieces.” (Matthew 7:6 WEB)
The Gospel you believe in your heart is a priceless treasure. Why do you need to hard-sell others about a great treasure? Those who have an eye for value will want it and ask you about it.
Some well-intentioned believers are repeatedly preaching to the wrong people. They are trying to convince those who will never believe. In Jesus’ parable, father Abraham said that some people will never be convinced, even if a spirit rises from the dead to warn them about Hell.
““He said, ‘I ask you therefore, father, that you would send him to my father’s house; for I have five brothers, that he may testify to them, so they won’t also come into this place of torment.’ “But Abraham said to him, ‘They have Moses and the prophets. Let them listen to them.’ “He said, ‘No, father Abraham, but if one goes to them from the dead, they will repent.’ “He said to him, ‘If they don’t listen to Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded if one rises from the dead.’”” (Luke 16:27-31 WEB)
Remember—announce the Gospel; don’t hard-sell it and cheapen the image of this priceless treasure we have!
The four gospels are full of powerful revelations to help us live victoriously through Christ. It is important to understand them through the lens of grace: https://bit.ly/understandeveryparable

How Biblical Prosperity Looks Like
“But, lest we cause them to stumble, go to the sea, cast a hook, and take up the first fish that comes up. When you have opened its mouth, you will find a stater coin. Take that, and give it to them for me and you.”” (Matthew 17:27 WEB)
When Jesus was on earth, He didn’t live in a palace, He didn’t own lots of land and He wasn’t considered a rich man. He wasn’t poor or destitute either. He earned a living as a carpenter and owned His own house in Capernaum.
Whenever there was a need, He never lacked. When there was no food in the deserted countryside, He multiplied loaves of bread and fishes. To pay the temple tax, He received a supernatural word of wisdom from His Father that He would send a fish with a coin in its mouth to provide the payment.
This is Biblical prosperity that every believer can experience—to have no lack and always be supplied for every need.
Not every Christian will be a multi-millionaire—there is a special calling for rich believers and that is to be generous givers towards the work of the Gospel.
Notice that God the Father didn’t create a silver coin for Jesus out of thin air. God provides for our needs through legitimate channels—He gives us the power to obtain wealth by giving us creative ideas and knowledge that will result in income if we act on them as led by the Holy Spirit.
God knows where all the ‘fishes with silver coins in their mouths’ are. He can direct them to swim towards you and tell you when to reel them in. This is the special advantage we have as children of God—we have insider info from the all-knowing, all-powerful God.
“When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into the deep, and let down your nets for a catch.” Simon answered him, “Master, we worked all night, and took nothing; but at your word I will let down the net.” When they had done this, they caught a great multitude of fish, and their net was breaking.” (Luke 5:4-6 WEB)
Work harder, no sleep, grind hard, no pain no gain. These are all the world can do because they can only rely on their own fleshly smarts, strength and abilities which are limited by the capabilities of man.
Without God’s favor, you can toil stressfully all night, sacrificing everything in life and still get nothing.
“Unless Yahweh builds the house, they labor in vain who build it. Unless Yahweh watches over the city, the watchman guards it in vain. It is vain for you to rise up early, to stay up late, eating the bread of toil; for he gives sleep to his loved ones.” (Psalms 127:1-2 WEB)
Rely on Jesus—through His Spirit in you, He can guide you what to do and exactly when to do it to haul in the biggest catch. You can tap on His unlimited wisdom and power.
It helps to swim along the river’s powerful current instead of against it—you’ll go further, faster!
The four gospels are full of powerful truths and if you read it right, you’ll see God’s heart of love and Grace towards us. Understand them through the lens of the New Covenant of Grace: https://bit.ly/understandeveryparable

UNDISPUTED - Skip claims Nets gonna win the NBA championship: Nothing but Nets
nothing but nets 在 pennyccw Youtube 的精選貼文
All the Philadelphia 76ers had to do was win, and
home-court advantage was theirs for at least the first round of the
playoffs.
Instead, the 76ers had one of their worst first quarters of the
season and never quite recovered. Now home-court advantage rides on
the very last game of the season.
"I never thought it would come to the last game to decide our
playoff spot," Allen Iverson said after the 76ers lost to the
Chicago Bulls 115-106 Tuesday night.
The 76ers' third straight loss dropped them into a tie with
Indiana for third place in the Eastern Conference, and it also
clinched the Atlantic Division title for the New Jersey Nets. Both
teams wrap up their regular seasons Wednesday night.
A loss could drop Philadelphia to as low as fifth in the East.
"When you lose a ballgame, especially to a team not going to
the playoffs, and we're trying to get home-court advantage, that
opens the window to say a lot of negative things about your own
team," Iverson said.
Actually, nothing more really needed to be said. The box score
summed it up: The 76ers fell behind 35-18 in the first quarter,
when they shot 24 percent from the floor.
"That's about as bad a first quarter as we played," coach
Larry Brown said. ``We had no energy, and took awful shots."
Though Iverson matched his season high with 42 points,
Philadelphia shot 38 percent. Eric Snow was the only other starter
in double figures, with 17. The final score might have been even
worse if the 76ers hadn't gone 40-of-44 from the line, including
17-of-18 by Iverson.
They couldn't find an answer for Eddy Curry, either. Curry made
his first eight shots on his way to a career-high 31 points. He
might have scored 40 if he hadn't been in foul trouble.
The Bulls finished the season 30-52; Curry ended up shooting
.580 from the field, the highest percentage for the Bulls since
1982-83, when Orlando Woolridge put up the same figure.
Jamal Crawford matched his career best with 33, and the Bulls
shot 63 percent, including 10-of-15 from 3-point range. The team's
30 victories are nine more than last season, and just six fewer
than it managed in the two previous seasons combined.
"As a team, we just wanted to end on a good note and get our
goal of 30 wins," said Crawford, who also had eight assists.
"It's exciting for us."
The Bulls have Curry and Crawford to thank for this one. The two
opened the game with their own 13-4 run, and the 76ers were
overwhelmed. Curry had a monster first quarter, going 8-for-8 and
matching the entire Philadelphia squad with 18 points. He didn't
miss a shot until there was 6:30 left in the first half, and he
finished the half with 24 points on 11-of-12 shooting.
"When you are out of the playoffs, it is easy to come in and
not give your best effort," Bulls coach Bill Cartwright said. "I
thought our guys have been terrific and showed a lot of character.
They showed great spirit."
Philadelphia trailed by as much as 17 early in the third, but
Iverson scored six straight points to pull them to 94-90 with 7:24
left in the game.

Allen Iverson and the rest of the 76ers are used to the boos that followed nearly every New Jersey basket in the fourth quarter.
What they haven't heard too much of was an earful from their easygoing coach, Maurice Cheeks.
Vince Carter scored 31 points and had 10 assists to lead the streaking Nets to a 101-90 win over the sliding 76ers on Wednesday night.
The Atlantic Division standings show the Nets with a four-game lead over the second-place Sixers. The gap, though, seems considerably wider considering New Jersey has won 12 of 15 while Philadelphia has lost seven of 10.
"We knew it was important for us to keep them behind us," said Cliff Robinson, who had 15 points for the Nets.
Cheeks finally had enough of watching his team ignore basic defensive principles and fail to sustain a full effort, and did all the talking during a roughly 30-minute postgame team meeting. Cheeks was typically mellow when he finally met the media, saying the Sixers were a "work in progress" that would eventually become the type of team that can make some noise in the East.
"It's us trying to stay together, which we will, and to keep working to figuring out how to win games," Cheeks said. "There are a lot of things we've got to work on."
Iverson led the Sixers with 36 points and Chris Webber had 15.
"The most I got out of it was that guys need to take a challenge to make this team better," Iverson said. "He talked about during this bad time that we're going through right now that it was important for everybody to stick together."
Iverson came up limping late in the fourth quarter when he appeared to knock knees with Jason Collins on a driving layup. Iverson hobbled around the court, rubbed his right leg, but remained in the game. Cheeks said Iverson was fine.
Much like how the Sixers collapsed in their embarrassing 104-76 loss to Washington on Monday, they again put up little fight in the fourth quarter.
The Nets got a pair of jumpers from Robinson and a 3 from Richard Jefferson during a 10-0 spurt that opened the fourth and gave them an 86-69 lead.
The home crowd started booing and heading for the exits. After making only two baskets in the first three quarters, Webber hit a 3-pointer and a 16-footer on consecutive possessions that helped pull the Sixers within eight.
Carter pushed back the Sixers with a couple of jumpers and the Nets cruised from there. Jefferson had 20 points and 16 rebounds, and Nenad Krstic had 16.
"That was a good win against a divisional rival on the road," Nets coach Lawrence Frank said.
Iverson had attempted only 12 shots and scored eight points in the first two quarters before he finally got going after the Nets used a 10-0 run to take a 60-46 lead in the third.
Iverson scored 11 straight points and had 19 of Philadelphia's 27 points in the third to cut the deficit to 77-69. Iverson complained after Monday's loss that he wasn't sure about his role on the team and what he could do to help the Sixers win.
Cheeks shrugged off Iverson's complaint and said before the game he had no reason to speak with his star point guard about his place on the team.
Iverson joked that Cheeks always needed during his seven seasons as a Sixers assistant to be prodded by former coach Larry Brown to speak up in the huddle or after practice. That quiet assistant has morphed into much more vocal coach. Iverson described Cheeks as "angry, and he had every right to be."
"I've been seeing a different side basically all year long," Iverson said. "His demeanor is totally different from being an assistant coach and the Maurice Cheeks that I got to know throughout the years of him being here. I expect it because he has a different role now."
Cheeks shuffled the starting lineup, hoping for some sort of combination that would instill a much needed defensive toughness. He benched 3-point threat Kyle Korver in favor of the more defensively adept John Salmons, but nothing changed. The Nets scored 30 points and shot 52 percent in the first quarter.
Michael Bradley did grab a season-high 10 rebounds in 17 minutes -- more than double his usual playing time.
"It's always easy when you get beat to beat ourselves up," Cheeks said. "We're going to keep trying, keep working." ^Notes:@ Korver had started the first 37 games and checked in for the first time with 3:22 left in the first quarter. He also had a bobblehead of his likeness given to fans and signed autographs after the game for fans who donated winter coats as part of his annual goodwill drive. ... The Nets led by as many as 17 points and made eight straight baskets in the first quarter.
