    Don't Stay In The Boat

    It has been said that "you will never walk on water if you do not get out of the boat." And yet, too often we fail to think about the next step. This sermon is meant to encourage those afraid to step out in faith as well as those who are sinking!

    Many centuries ago, a man named Peter stood on the edge of a boat in the Sea of Galilee. Like all people who find themselves on an edge - whether physical or metaphorical - a decision had to be made. Peter’s choice was to either to step out onto the water or remain in the boat. Not an easy ...read more

    While Jesus was praying on the mountain, the disciples were in a boat trying to cross the sea. Jesus approaches the boat walking on water. They thought it was a ghost and it frightened them until Jesus spoke up.

    Ninth Sunday after Pentecost Our Gospel reading this morning talks about the apostles’ struggle with fear as a raging storm tosses their boat like a cork on the churning sea. Now fear could be a good thing or it can be a bad thing. It can cripple us or it can be a lifesaver. Someone once ...read more

    When Jesus sent his disciples across the lake into the storm he was aware, prayed for them, went to them, and took care of them. What a picture for us in the COVID-19 Crisis!

    1. Pessimist: A farmer had a neighbor that was just absolutely negative, no matter what. If it was raining, the farmer would say to his neighbor, "Boy, look at it rain, we sure need it." The neighbor would say, "Yeah, but if it keeps up it’s gonna flood." Then the sun came out ...read more

    Followers of Jesus can have hope though His divine 1) Authority (Matthew 14:22–23), 2) Knowledge (Matthew 14:24–25), 3) Protection (Matthew 14:26–27), 4) Love (Matthew 14:28-31), and divine 5) Power (Matthew 14:32-33).

    Matthew 14:22-33 [22] Immediately he made the disciples get into the boat and go before him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowds. [23] And after he had dismissed the crowds, he went up on the mountain by himself to pray. When evening came, he was there alone, [24] but the boat by this ...read more

     | 4,922 views

    A disciple is someone who imitates the example of Jesus and who follows the instructions of Jesus no matter how often he gets interrupted by the world. Today, we’ll look at how that played out in the life of one disciple, in one of the most famous stories in the Gospels.

    What is a disciple, Part 2: In the Eye of the Storm Mark 6: 45-52; Matthew 16:22-33 We are in the second week of talking specifically about what it means to be a disciple of Jesus. You might remember last week we said that “A disciple is someone who imitates the example of Jesus and who follows ...read more

    This message examines the story of Jesus walking on the water and how the disciples reacted in fear because they failed to reciognize that it was Him walking towards them.

    We Are Never Alone Scripture: Hebrews 13:5-6; Mark 4:40; Matthew 14:22-36; 28:20; Psalm 29:11 The title of my message this morning is “We Are Never Alone.” In 1978, Walter Hawkins released the song “Never Alone” on his Love Alive II album.

    One of the reasons we can win the spiritual battle and get through the storms of life, is the fact that we have a Savior in heaven who is praying for us.

    Nineteenth Sunday In Ordinary Time, Cycle A - 19th Sunday, Year A -- Walking On Water

    Contributed by Paul Andrew on May 30, 2020
     | 2,981 views

    There is an element of test in Peter’s condition, “Lord, if it is you, command me to come to you on the water.” Peter asking Jesus “to command” him suggests the alignment of Peter’s will with the will of the Lord.

    IN THAT BOAT, which the church has always identified as herself, is where we want to be because it can provide the sure way for us to get to the other shore, to heaven; and, in this life, take us to new horizons. But along the way we are caught in a storm and face danger. 1.We need to pray ...read more

    Peter walked out of the boat and sank. We all need to learn the lesson on faith which Peter learnt that night.

    Dear brothers and sisters, welcome to today’s devotion. There have been countless situations when I struggled to trust God because those problems I faced appeared too big even for God to help me. This is the case for Peter as we can see from Matt 14:22-33. While the twelve disciples were ...read more
