Get out of the boat Matt. 14:28-29
28 And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water.
29 And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.
What a wonderful experience for Peter.
This was clearly supernatural.
Every step was a miracle
Here was a man by the power of God walking on the seas of Galilee.
The disciples had spent the night on the lake, and when morning came, they saw a form coming toward them.
Some thought it was a ghost, but Jesus cried, “It is I.”
As soon as Peter saw it was the Lord, he cried,
Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water.
And Jesus said, “COME” and Peter CAME
IT takes FAITH to step out upon the water.
But before you can have a “walking on water experience: YOU HAVE TO GET OUT OF THE BOAT!!!!
You’ve been wanting to step out of the boat.
You’ve been desiring for God’s touch
You’ve been hearing about it.
You’ve been seeing it on others…
But something seems to hold you down.
3 Things that hold us in the boat
1.Security
Don’t want to take a chance
Been this way for years
2.Contentment
Not so bad where I’m at
Getting along ok.
3.Doubt
Just don’t know if God would do for me what he did for Peter.
Not good enough
Not holy enough
Not righteous enough
Don’t allow anything to hold you back from pleasing God in Faith.
