Luke 5

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.

When I read this, this week, the Lord spoke to me regarding the church merges possibility. I heard Him say that when Simon Peter says "Because you say so," that we need to say that about the church merge idea. We don't really understand why, like Peter didn't, but because you say so, I will go along and do what you are suggesting.

And as we are doing as you say by accepting this idea that we don't know if it is your will, that we will blessed beyond what we think will happen. Then Peter goes on to ask for help from his "partners" (other fisherman), and so we are to ask for help from others like us, pastors and churches like he asked for help from like. And when they come to help us, we all will be blessed beyond measure.

As we work together and ask for help, both can be blessed, versus doing everything on their own.

This comes from Michael stating also "I can't do this merge alone, it has to be a team"
