We’ve all been there. You try once—nothing. You try again—still nothing. By the third attempt, discouragement is knocking and doubt starts whispering, “Why bother?”
That’s exactly where Simon Peter was in Luke 5:5. After an exhausting night of catching nothing, Jesus tells him to cast his net once more. Peter doesn’t argue—he obeys. And the result? A miraculous catch. Not because Peter tried harder, but because he trusted Jesus.
Faith isn’t just about believing—it’s about obeying, even when the odds seem unchanged. Sometimes, God’s breakthrough isn’t on the first try. It’s on the second… or the third. The miracle is waiting on the other side of obedience.
When has God asked you to try again after failure?
Have you ever seen a miracle happen after obedience felt pointless?
“Obedience unlocks what effort alone never could.”
