Jesus told His disciples, “Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught” (Luke 5:4).

There are three instructions here that we can all apply to our own lives:

1) “Launch out into the deep“. You won’t go any further staying where you are. If you want to see miracles and breakthroughs in your life, you’ve got to go deeper than you are right now.

2) “let down your nets“. That’s like telling a baseball player to reach out his mitt, or a fisherman to drop his line. You’ve got to prepare to receive. Open up your hands and your heart.

3) “for a draught“. You should have a goal in your mind. What are you reaching for? There should be a faith expectation. What are you asking God to do for you? Believe it and you shall receive it.
