GOD BLESSES EVERY ACT OF OBEDIENCE—NO MATTER HOW SMALL OR INSIGNIFICANT IT MAY SEEM.

Obeying God in small matters can bring blessing to many people. Today’s passage vividly illustrates this principle.
Peter, a fisherman, had worked hard all night without catching anything. He was on the shore washing nets when Jesus asked to use his boat as a platform from which to address the crowd on the beach. Despite a long, fruitless night of labor, Peter agreed, and the crowd was blessed by listening to Christ.

God’s requests can come to us at unexpected moments. We may be tempted to let someone else respond to His call, thinking it will not matter who complies. But remember, His plans are designed for our benefit (Jeremiah 29:11).

Later Jesus made a second request—to move the boat into deeper waters and let down the nets. Peter said the night’s work had been completely fruitless. Yet he did as Christ asked, and his cooperation resulted in an abundance of fish.

The disciple didn’t obey in order to be rewarded, yet that is precisely what happened. His simple acts of compliance led to greater opportunities for service and occasions for abundant blessing. Let’s commit to carrying out the Lord’s instructions in matters both small and great, trusting that He will bring good from every act of obedience.
