At your word, I will let down the net!
Luke 5.1-11: " And it came to pass, that, as the people pressed upon him to hear the word of God, he stood by the lake of Gennesaret, And saw two ships standing by the lake: but the fishermen were gone out of them, and were washing their nets. And he entered into one of the ships, which was Simon's, and prayed him that he would thrust out a little from the land. And he sat down, and taught the people out of the ship. Now when he had left speaking, he said unto Simon, Launch out into the deep, and let down your nets for a draught. And Simon answering said unto him, Master, we have toiled all the night, and have taken nothing: nevertheless at thy word I will let down the net. And when they had this done, they inclosed a great multitude of fishes: and their net brake. And they beckoned unto their partners, which were in the other ship, that they should come and help them. And they came, and filled both the ships, so that they began to sink.  When Simon Peter saw it, he fell down at Jesus' knees, saying, Depart from me; for I am a sinful man, O Lord. For he was astonished, and all that were with him, at the draught of the fishes which they had taken:  And so was also James, and John, the sons of Zebedee, which were partners with Simon. And Jesus said unto Simon, Fear not; from henceforth thou shalt catch men. And when they had brought their ships to land, they forsook all, and followed him. Hi everyone!

"As Jesus was standing by the lake of Gennesaret, and the crowd pressed around him to hear the word of God, he saw at the lake two boats, where fishermen came down to wash their nets. He got in one of the boats, which was Simon's, and asked him to put out a little earth. Then he sat down, and the boat taught the crowds (Luke 5.1-3) " Made at this point to Lake Gennesaret, the Lord wanted to proclaim the message of the gospel to this crowd that cornered everywhere he needed to go on the water by boat to his voice may have a and reaching a favorable response from all those present.
