He Knows Where the Fish Are
Steve Wagers
Luke 5:1-10
Man went fishing on Sunday. Caught the most fish he had ever caught, and even landed a state record. One of the angels asked Jesus why He blessed him so much fishing, when he should have been in church on Sunday. Jesus said, ''Who's he going to tell?''
Game warden finally caught up with a man who was catching more fish than the regulations allowed. Asked the man his secret. Met man the next day to go with him. Got in the boat. Miles out onto the lake. Man never said a word. Warden kept asking questions. Man lit a stick of dynamite, handed it to the warden and said, ''Are you going to talk or fish?''
At the beginning of the earthly ministry of the Lord Jesus, he takes a fishing expedition. Luke is the ONLY Gospel writer to record this fishing trip. Jesus, a carpenter's son goes fishing. But, He knows where the fish are.
1) He Knows WHAT to FEED Them!
A) He EMBODIED Truth (1)
''Pressed'' (Gr. 'epikeimai') ''urgent''
Word used to describe the pressure of a hurricane
They had a passion, sense of urgency to hear the Word of God.
They were starving, and only the Bread of Life could feed them.
Jesus gave the Word of God as the Word FROM God
He was the embodiment of ALL truth. OMNISCIENT
IQ test - measures intelligence level
WHEN YOU KNOW IT ALL - YOU HAVE NO INTELLIGENCE LEVEL
B) He EXPOUNDED Truth (3)
Wouldn't you have loved to have heard Him teach?
The WORD expounding the WORD
I wonder if He started in the OT to NT - ALL about Him.
Every sermon/subject/scripture/song - ALL ABOUT HIM
There's ONLY one thing that feeds the soul of man - WORD OF GOD!
2) He Knows WHERE to FIND Them!
Jesus proves His Omniscience - DEITY partners with HUMANITY
A) SPECIAL LOCATION (1-2)
Gennesaret - Sea of Galilee/Tiberias (Same place)
12 miles long/7 miles wide
Known for clear waters/sudden storms
Much of the ministry of Christ took place around these waters
