Launch Out Into the Deep

Luke 5:4–7

Jesus said, “Launch out into the deep and let down your nets for a draught.”

• The miracle did not happen at the shoreline.

• It happened after they launched out into the deep.

• The deep requires obedience.

• The deep requires trust.

• The miracle was already in the deep.

• The miracle was already waiting.

• Jesus spoke the draught before the nets went down.

• Obedience perceives overflow.

• He declared overflow — miracle — before they saw evidence.

• The miracle was not in the shallow.

• It was in the deep.

• The miracle did not happen at the shoreline.

• It happened when they left the familiar.

• The shoreline is what feels safe.

• It is what we know.

• It is where we can still touch bottom.

• As we step into the new church in obedience, we are stepping into where the miracles already are.

• We can expect provision.

• We can expect abundance.

• We can expect healings.

• We can expect deliverance.

• We can expect salvations.

• We can expect miracles.

• We can expect what He has already prepared in the deep.

Launch out into the deep!
