GHG SHORT DEVOTIONALS - 5 (GOD HAS CALLED YOU TO DO GREATER THINGS)

Matthew 17:27 (NKJV) "... go to the sea, cast in a hook, and take the fish that comes up first. And when you have opened its mouth, you will find a piece of money; take that and give it to them for Me and you."

Jesus said this to Peter who is a professional fisherman. Peter knew from his experience that it's impossible to get money out of a fish, that too from the first fish that he is going to catch. But yet he had put his experience behind and obeyed Jesus without any argument. He became the first man in the history of fishery to find money in the fish mouth.

1. You are called to do greater things for God...things that cannot not be understood through your experience or human mind. But when God calls you for that, just obey.

2. God has promised you already so many blessings and today the situation might not be supportive to God's word but God says that His promises will be fulfilled in your life.

It's not Peter who had catch the exact fish with money. It's God who had put the money inside a fish and ordained it in such a way that it falls into the Peter's hook. Peter just went according to God's word and the rest was taken care by God.

3. Even in your life God has already prepared every blessing for you. All you have to do is to stay in His will. Then He will lead you to those blessings and you will see greater things in your life. God will take care of everything in your life.
