When attempting the impossible... you must get your mule ... out of the boat.
Peter received a word ... a command from the Lord ... and he got his rear-end out of the boat ... and walked ... walked on the water. (Matthew 14:29)
Beloved Simon Peter ... (Slow & Powerful) turned his faith ... into Faithing ... and Faithing requires you to do something.
Faithing requires action.
Perhaps ... this is the most important ... of the strategic truths.
For Beloved ... If you do not get out of the boat, ... you will never ... ever ... walk on water. REPEAT
Doing what seems to be impossible ... can never be a reality ... unless ... you get out of the boat.
Far too many people ... even those that call themselves followers of the Christ ... never leave the boat.
They never act on God's word.
They never share the gifts ... the vision ... that God has in store for them.
They stay in their little boat ... and complain ... as they strain ... on the oars.
They buy into Satan's lies ... and stay busy with earthly things ... and do very little ... if anything ... in the spiritual realm ... the realm ... of the impossible.
Beloved, ... Hear me on this ... You cannot be fully transformed ... into the image of Christ ... if you are sitting ... in a boat.
There is no Christian Faith ... without action.
There is none.
Or as the Scriptures state: Faith without works is dead. (James 2:20)
Without action, ... you have a dead faith.
Simon Peter requested the Lord to command him.
And the Lord gave him a simple ... straight forward command ... "Come."
Beloved ... With Faith, ... With faith ... nothing is Impossible!
Beloved ... (Slow & powerful) get out of your comfort zone ... get out of the boat ...
You ... You must take that first step.
