The Career Person by PM

THE CAREER PERSON

For some reason – Jesus figured that career minded people could make the greatest influencers for God. Some of the first ones HE sought out were those in the maritime industry

He didn’t ask them to leave their careers or their contact with their career partners (although some of them left all to follow Jesus), He shared with them a higher focus and a higher purpose within their career/job – to catch men!

Jesus said – from now on, you will catch men!

In Luke 5 Jesus said to Simon – the owner of the fishing vessel ‘put out into deep water and let down the nets for a catch!’

Response was – we’ve worked hard all night – but caught nothing! But because you say so, I will let down the nets.

Respond to the say-so of the Master
Realize that without His direction you will often catch nothing and expend a lot of energy doing so.
So successful were they when they responded the Master that when they read the P&L, (saw the catch) they were astonished

HERE’S the main point

Invest in the people, not just the dream! Deep water is investing in people!

Use the career God has given you to catch men!
