When your Struggles produces NOTHING

When you focus on your Struggles and subconsciously leave God out of your life and planning, you will notice that upon all your Struggles, it will produce NOTHING.

This is likened to the Lessons on the third appearance of Jesus to his Disciples – Post Resurrection.

Many people do not have a life per say, what they have is a life of perpetual struggles. (John 21:1–24.)

Many, struggle every day to do their best and live aright. The rich is full of worries, while the poor are full of anxiety.

According to John 21:3, Peter took the Disciples to go back to their original works – fishing. They went back to their struggling ways.

We will recall that it was this same boat that they forsook in Luke 5. When you think of Peter, John, you would remember that they had a handiwork, they were not lazy people. It was this same place in Luke 5, where Jesus saw Peter that he went back to.

The Post Resurrection Lessons on the third appearance of Jesus to his disciples are very much a necessity for all believers in Christ to understand and learn from because it strips bare our struggles and shows us ways of escape.

Lessons to learn from Our Struggles

1. Go FISHING: When you get discouraged, two things will happen to you. Either you return to God, or you go back to what you were doing before you met God. (Revelation 2:25).
2. Stop the Struggles: Peter, James and John have been in partnership before they met Jesus. (John 21:3)

Sometimes God allows us to go through struggles to teach us that despite our connections, Education, experiences, some problems cannot be solved, except by the power of God. So, why don’t you stop all your struggles, solely relying on your connections, and STEP into the Inner Room?

3. God is closer than you think. (John 21:14).
4. God is always there even when you think you cannot see Him. (Psalm 30:5) (NKJV)

5. What can you accomplish outside of God? God is asking “how long can you wait for Me?” All your connections, experiences, have they worked?
Does the Almighty want to be educated by asking questions? – NO!
He wants you to discover yourself by yourself. Remember His word says “without me, you can do nothing”.

6. God wants you to consider that He is not limited to your situation.
Always remember that Personal evaluation is the engine oil to progress.

7. Deliverance begins with the confession that you cannot help yourself. Therefore, God HELP Me! becomes the greatest prayer you Should pray.

8. God does not need to go into a struggle with you, He will only provide solutions for you.
This is where you have to pulse and go into your INNER ROOM (Prayer)

When you are at your lowest point, when everything you have tried has failed, don’t throw in the towel yet; throw out your net to the RIGHT. – Don’t give up until God speaks.

9. The strange thing here was that the Disciples did not recognise that it was Jesus that was talking to them. This might be because they were so encumbered by their struggles.

……. You need a JOHN in your boat because it was John that discovered that it was Christ. He knew the heartbeat of Christ.
