Can you walk on water…Jesus and Peter did.

Can you walk on water…Jesus and Peter did.

But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary. And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea…

And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear. But straightway Jesus spoke unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid…

And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water. And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus. But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.

…And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt? And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased. Then they that were in the ship came and worshipped him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God...Matthew 14:24-33.

 

What if you were Peter…would you walk on the sea or never get out of the boat.

How many of us have the faith of Peter…would you have gotten out of the boat and believed you too could walk on the water…and when did he begin to sink…when he looked around and thought this is impossible…or as Jesus said why did you doubt? How can doing the impossible be stopped…it was stopped by Peter when he doubted he could walk on the water. The only way I have ever walked on water was when it was frozen.


Jesus can calm the seas in your life…Jesus can walk on water…and pull you out. Jesus is God…do you have any battles you are facing where you need Jesus to intervene walking on the water of the sea…I do.

The parable of the tares and wheat…useless fruit and good fruit in the field of mankind.

The parable of the tares and wheat…useless fruit and good fruit in the field of mankind.

Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed (seeds of truth) in his field: But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares (seeds of false) among the wheat, and went his way. But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit (good deeds through good teaching), then appeared the tares (useless deeds through false teaching) also. So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed (the truth) in thy field? from whence then hath it tares (falsehoods)? He said unto them, An enemy hath done this…

…The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares (false teaching in the church…the field is mankind), ye root up also the wheat (good deeds) with them. Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares (useless deeds through opinions and false ideas), and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat (good deeds) into my barn (the kingdom before Jesus finally returns in Judgment)...Matthew 13:24-30.

 

How many ideas are out there even in the church that are false…like you have to tithe or give 10%...there is no commandment which says give 10% in the New Testament of Christ. Many believe the false teaching that they have to…How many teach baptism is necessary for salvation…how many congregations do not take the Lord’s supper every Sunday…Use improper worship methods…etc. How many claim to be apostles and to do their will…or elders…or bishops…etc.

 

We must have a thus it is written for everything we do not the preacher says so. We got to have bible…the word of God as our source of truth not a person or a false book. The opinions of man add to God’s word…for it is written to give as we have been prospered (1 Cor 16:2) not to give 10%...but many do give 10%. It is not a sin to give this amount but God does not require it. Opinions add to the word of God or they take away from the word of God…we must have thus it is written for the bible we teach. For it is written in Revelation…For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book...Revelation 22:18-19

 

Prayer

Father please help us realize anything we teach which is adding to your word or taking away from which you commanded so we may have a thus it is written in the Holy Bible of Truth…and forgive us in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
