Why do we need

to know

Jesus?

Jesus: He was standing by the lake of Gennesaret;

Crowd: crowd was pressing around Him and listening to the word of God

He sat down and began teaching"

Jesus said: "Put out into the deep water and let down your nets for a catch."Peter’s Response: "Master, we worked hard all night and caught nothing,

Peter’s Response:…but I will do as You say and let down the nets."

ARGUED FIRST BEFORE HE OBEYED JESUS

Why did he argued first before he obeyed Jesus?1. It was not the right time to

catch fist (daytime). 2. They spent the whole night

fishing yet they caught nothing3. He has a limited understanding

of Jesus.

He has a limited understanding of Jesus.

“MASTER” is equivalent with “RABBI,” which

means “teacher.”

Peter felt, he is a loser even before he began. Have you ever been defeated?

28 Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 11:29 Take my yoke on you and learn from me, because I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 11:30 For my yoke is easy to bear, and my load is not hard to carry.” Matthew 11:28-30

Surrender that pain to Jesus and trust him fully for the result. He can give you freedom from your past.

Peter’s Response: when Simon Peter saw that, he fell down at Jesus' feet"

What was his realization when he saw the great catch of fish?

MASTER + LORDPeter’s knowledge of Jesus grew, and fully understood that he is not only a master but also as Lord.

Peter personally experienced Jesus and was able to see the great manifestation of His power over the nature

“My ear had heard of you but now my eyes have seen you. Therefore, I despised myself and repent in dust and ashes.”

Job 42:5-6

“When we see Jesus more clearly we also see ourselves more clearly. His beauty exposes our flaws; His perfection reveals our sinfulness. Man’s first reaction to such a revelation is often, “go away.” But only by coming to Jesus can we find forgiveness for our sins and inner personal renewal.” Richards, L. O
