Luke 5:1-16

Jesus Calls His First Disciples

5 One day as Jesus was standing by the Lake of Gennesaret,[a] the people were crowding around him and listening to the word of God. 2 He saw at the water’s edge two boats, left there by the fishermen, who were washing their nets. 3 He got into one of the boats, the one belonging to Simon, and asked him to put out a little from shore. Then he sat down and taught the people from the boat.

4 When he had finished speaking, he said to Simon, “Put out into deep water, and let down the nets for a catch.”

5 Simon answered, “Master, we’ve worked hard all night and haven’t caught anything. But because you say so, I will let down the nets.”

6 When they had done so, they caught such a large number of fish that their nets began to break. 7 So they signaled their partners in the other boat to come and help them, and they came and filled both boats so full that they began to sink.

8 When Simon Peter saw this, he fell at Jesus’ knees and said, “Go away from me, Lord; I am a sinful man!” 9 For he and all his companions were astonished at the catch of fish they had taken, 10 and so were James and John, the sons of Zebedee, Simon’s partners.

Then Jesus said to Simon, “Don’t be afraid; from now on you will fish for people.” 11 So they pulled their boats up on shore, left everything and followed him.

Jesus Heals a Man With Leprosy
12 While Jesus was in one of the towns, a man came along who was covered with leprosy.[b] When he saw Jesus, he fell with his face to the ground and begged him, “Lord, if you are willing, you can make me clean.”

13 Jesus reached out his hand and touched the man. “I am willing,” he said. “Be clean!” And immediately the leprosy left him.

14 Then Jesus ordered him, “Don’t tell anyone, but go, show yourself to the priest and offer the sacrifices that Moses commanded for your cleansing, as a testimony to them.”

15 Yet the news about him spread all the more, so that crowds of people came to hear him and to be healed of their sicknesses. 16 But Jesus often withdrew to lonely places and prayed.

“And those who are Christ’s have crucified the flesh with its passions and lusts.” GALATIANS 5:24
Every consecrated person is a crucified person. He is crucified to the flesh with its passions and lusts. When we are conse- crated, it means we apply specific crucifyings to the specific pas- sions and the specific lusts. We inwardly apply the cross to those emotions in our being, those movements within us — the evil desires, the passions, the sinful stirrings, the unclean thoughts, the evil imaginations — the whole realm that Paul talks about in Galatians 5. In this way our being is drastically dealt with by the cross. We need to inwardly and specifically apply the cross to any evil passion that is toward some person or some thing. Apply the cross specifically to every individual lust that rises up within you. Those who are of Christ Jesus know that they do not belong to themselves. They are consecrated freshly: “Lord, I am Yours today. My mind is Yours today. My ears are Yours today.” With this fresh consecration, you have consecrated the flesh with its passions and lusts to be crucified. This implies fellowship with the Lord. In my time with the Lord every morning I am freshly consecrating — “Lord, today I give You myself. I love to touch You this morning, to have fellowship with You.” Today is a new day. We need to apply the cross today. So we need to have an up-to-date, fresh consecration and fresh fellowship with the Lord. There is a way to live a life inwardly applying the cross. It is by being a person who is in the freshness of consecration and fellowship
