Day 11 | Invest

Luke 5:10 NIV

10 and so were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, Simon’s partners.

Then Jesus said to Simon, “Don’t be afraid; from now on you will fish for people.”

INVEST: Jesus reassures us that He will equip us for the work He calls us to do. Just as Simon Peter was called to catch men, we are called to share the Gospel and bring others to Christ. This can be intimidating, but Jesus tells us not to be afraid. He promises to be with us and to use us in ways we might not expect. Trust Him today to guide you as you invest in others.

Looking to go deeper into today’s Scripture?  

1. Sit quietly for a few minutes. Take a deep breath calming your heart and mind in the presence of Jesus. Ask the Holy Spirit to open your soul to hear what Jesus wants to tell you.

2. Read today’s Scripture slowly. Listen for God’s voice to you in the text. Read it again and try to identify one word or phrase that stood out to you or caught your attention. 

3. Ponder/meditate what God is saying to you. What is going on in the passage? What is God wanting you to know? What is the good news He wants for you?

4. Begin to pray from this Scripture passage. Pray in response to what God is saying to you. What is the Holy Spirit laying on your heart out of this passage? Do you need to pray for a confession? Do you need to pray for action? Do you need to pray for a conviction or an affirmation? 

5. Share with your family or friend.  What is your key take-away from this passage? What will you put into practice?  Who do you want to pray for to come to know Jesus?
