Trusting the Savior
We can fill what happened by looking at Luke Chapter 5
Matt 4:22
Luke 5.9-
What will it take for you to follow Him!
There are three places in the gospel records there appears to be a call. .
In the synoptic gospels (Matthew and Luke) the call is at Capernaum of Galilee.
In John
They are at the Jordan river at Jesus’s Baptism.
John call is different than Matthew, Mark, and Luke’s accounts of Jesus’ calling of the apostles.
John actually referred to a different circumstance altogether.
John records Peter and Andrew’s first meeting with the Christ.
The synoptists, however, testify of a later meetings, when Jesus called them at the Sea of Galilee to become “fishers of men.”
In John, “[t]he disciples of John [the Baptizer—EL] recognize the Messiah and spontaneously attach themselves to him” (Morris, p. 136).
In the synoptics, the disciples clearly were called to begin a life of service as apostles (; ; )
That being said lets look this morning at what led up to the call!
What was it that Peter and the other fisherman saw that moved them so much to follow this man called Jesus?
Growing up I heard the gospel.
But it was divine circumstances that brought me to the Lord...
What was the even the holy spirit used to influence you to be a follower of Christ
Many say the disciples became followers of Christ at the Baptism of John and here were called to be a disciples.
I think in John they showed an interest to be associated with Christ it was here that they left all to follow Christ...
Obedience brought conviction and also trust!
I The Command
matt 4
Background - all this had happened prior to this event .....
teaching
What happened in between had profound implications
Background
He removed daemons
teaching
look at vs - they were all amazed
luke 4.36
wow - vs 37
Comment here - they obviously hear and knew of what was being said.....
Peter, John and all the others had heard this ....
Comment here - they obviously hear and knew of what was being said.....
healing
healing
For crying out loud this was Peters Mother -in-law
Comment here
Then we come to which mirrors Matt
God was working in the future apostles
What you have seen
What you have experienced
What Christians have said
Think about it
Jesus was in Capernaum teaching in the synagogue
Healing and all kinks of noise was being made
Then comes Jesus down to the lake
Peter is tired
Bad night caught nothing
A huge crowd had showed up down by the lake.....
What Peter and others has seen and witnessed would have a profound effect on what happens next.
My God works through circumstances, people and events to bring me to Him!
Illustration - NJ we met some really normal people that had kids that were sold out to the Lord.
They were like us
They lived in our neighborhood
They had radically changed lives and recieved Christ
Luke 4:
Then the miracle of the fish
Now i will go
I The Conversation
yep I will go but........
Things happen
Give it time
sidetracked -illustration
II The Compensation - encouragement
II The Compensation
luke 5.1-
luke 5.1-
Peter was obedient
vs 1-3 The Lord used Peter’s boat as a pulpit from which to teach the multitude.
If we yield all our property and possessions to the Savior, it is wonderful how He uses them, and rewards us too
The acoustical properties of this area are remarkable.
The still water acts as a sounding board, a loudspeaker.
It picks up a speaker’s voice and throws it up the beach and the hillside so that everyone can hear what is being said even when it is spoken in a conversational tone of voice.
The Lord did not have to raise His voice to be heard by one and all.
We can picture Peter, pleased and proud that the great preacher Himself should be sitting there in his boat, His voice ringing out to one and all.
Peter’s companions were nearby, busily mending their nets with their hands while listening to Jesus with all of their ears.
Peter thought that he knew more about fishing than Jesus did.
“Let down the nets?
Nonsense, there’s nothing there to catch.
We ought to know; we’ve fished over this corner of the lake all night.
Still, just to humor You, Lord, I’ll let down a net.”
Peter’s experienced hand felt the astounding response at once.
Suddenly, the net, wholly inadequate for the task, was full to overflowing.
Peter still knew it all.
He summoned his partners, who by now had launched the other boat, and they drew alongside.
God provided - it may not make since
Fishing in the heat of the day
Fishing that goes against all you experience
But if you will trust me I will provide your needs even if it seems difficult....
Christ was showing Peter and the other disciples leave it all follow me and i will give you more fish than you can handle.
Illustration - when God tells you to launch out into the deep .... it may not make since but he will provide.
This was encouragement to the future disciples that if they obey He will miraculously provide.
III The Conviction
