Simon Peter said to them, “I am going fishing.” They said, “And we are coming with you.” So they went out and got into the boat; and that night they caught nothing. As morning was breaking, Jesus [came and] stood on the beach; however, the disciples did not know that it was Jesus. So Jesus said to them, “Children, do you have any fish [to eat along with your bread]?” They answered, “No.” And He said to them, “Cast the net on the right-hand side of the boat (starboard) and you will find some.” So they cast [the net], and then they were not able to haul it in because of the great catch of fish. Then that disciple (John) whom Jesus loved (esteemed) said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” So when Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he put on his outer tunic (for he was stripped for work) and threw himself into the sea [and swam ashore]. But the other disciples came in the small boat, for they were not far from shore, only about a hundred yards away, dragging the net full of fish. So when they got out on the beach, they saw a charcoal fire set up and fish on it cooking, and bread. Jesus said to them, “Bring some of the fish which you have just caught.” So Simon Peter went aboard and hauled the net to land, full of large fish, a hundred and fifty-three [of them]; and although there were so many, the net was not torn. Jesus said to them, “Come and have breakfast.” None of the disciples dared to ask Him, “Who are You?” They knew [without any doubt] that it was the Lord.

"For me, still the greatest miracle of all is when a man or woman is born again, because the Lord says in John 3:3 'Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God' and then again in verse 7, 'You must be born again.' - Angus Buchan Join Angus on this 3-day devotional, exploring examples of miracles we can all learn and grow from.
This 3-day reading plan written by Rev, Samuel Rodriguez focuses on our spiritual hunger, and recognizing that our souls require nourishment on a regular basis. No matter how often we pray, how many Bible passages we study and memorize, how frequently we attend church events or serve those in need, there’s always room to grow closer to God.
In this third message of our series on Psalm 23, we reflect on the wonderful care our great Shepherd provides His sheep. Whether we are cast down, wandered off, or are burned out, we can have confidence that in Christ we are made complete, find rest, restored, and made righteous.
Peter was a man of the sea, but he had no idea that Jesus would come to change everything. He would see the waters in a whole new light. Before Jesus, the sea was just another day, full of endless possibilities. But with Jesus, it became a place of miracles and new experiences. Discover how God wants to elevate your life to a new level of glory.
