TUESDAY, MARCH 29, 2022 DEVOTION

TUESDAY, MARCH 29, 2022


TEXT: John 21:1-14


1. After this, Jesus revealed Himself again to His disciples by the Sea of Tiberias. He revealed Himself in this way:


2. Simon Peter, Thomas (called “Twin”), Nathanael from Cana of Galilee, Zebedee’s sons, and two others of His disciples were together.


3. “I’m going fishing,” Simon Peter said to them. “We’re coming with you,” they told him. They went out and got into the boat, but that night they caught nothing.


4. When daybreak came, Jesus stood on the shore. However, the disciples did not know it was Jesus.


5. “Men,” Jesus called to them, “you don’t have any fish, do you?” “No,” they answered.


6. “Cast the net on the right side of the boat,” He told them, “and you’ll find some.” So they did, and they were unable to haul it in because of the large number of fish.


7. Therefore the disciple, the one Jesus loved, said to Peter, “It is the Lord!” When Simon Peter heard that it was the Lord, he tied his outer garment around him (for he was stripped) and plunged into the sea.


8. But since they were not far from land (about 100 yards away), the other disciples came in the boat, dragging the net full of fish.


9. When they got out on land, they saw a charcoal fire there, with fish lying on it, and bread.


10. “Bring some of the fish you’ve just caught,” Jesus told them.


11. So Simon Peter got up and hauled the net ashore, full of large fish- 153 of them. Even though there were so many, the net was not torn.


12. “Come and have breakfast,” Jesus told them. None of the disciple dared ask Him, “Who are You?” because they knew it was the Lord.


13. Jesus came, took the bread, and gave it to them. He did the same with the fish.


14. This was now the third time Jesus appeared to the disciples after He was raised from the dead.


(Holmans CS Holy Bible)


TOPIC: THEY KNEW IT WAS THE LORD


The appearance of Jesus before the seven disciples was a further evidence that Jesus is alive. These seven disciples spent the whole night fishing which was the most favorable time for such a profession but they had no catch.


Their experiences gave way to the suggestion of a stranger in the early hours of the new day. Through John, the disciples knew that the stranger was Jesus vs. 7. This appearance marked the third one after Jesus was raised from the dead.


QUESTION: What meaning is the resurrected Lord to you?


PRAYER: Father, help me not to take my salvation lightly but to constantly depend on you as my rising Lord and Savior, Amen.
