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.
