When Obedience Turns Failure into Abundance
“Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.” — Proverbs 4:7
Peter wasn’t fishing for leisure—he was a husband, an entrepreneur, and a provider. Scripture says he toiled all night and caught nothing. Imagine working a full shift and leaving with no paycheck. That’s the kind of night Peter had.
Then Jesus showed up and told him to try again. “At your word,” Peter replied, and he cast the nets. In that moment, obedience turned failure into overflow. The nets broke, the boats sank with blessing, and Peter’s life was never the same.
Peter’s story is more than a miracle—it’s a model of discipleship. He started in failure. He humbled himself to obey. He sacrificed what he thought he knew. And only then did he receive abundance on the other side of God’s Word.
For today’s entrepreneur, the lesson is clear: wisdom puts obedience first, even when the numbers don’t add up. Seek first His Kingdom, and watch what gets added.
