Swimming In Deep Water!
Contributed by James May on Nov 28, 2017 (message contributor)
Summary: We will never know the glory of great victories in our walk with the Lord until we are willing to commit our all to Him.
What about you right now? Are you still in the shallow water? What are you going to do with your commitment to the Lord?
Some of you still haven’t stepped into the water at all. Some are in every stage of this sermon. Jesus is looking for a full commitment. Let the river carry you wherever the Holy Spirit leads. Allow Jesus to have the complete Lordship of your life and there is no telling what great victories lie ahead.
Will you surrender all – or continue to walk in the shallow water? The choice is yours and Jesus is waiting for your answer.
There is a song that says this:
"Step into the water, wade out a little bit deeper, wet your feet in the water of His love. Step into the water, wade out a little bit deeper, come join angels singing praise to the Lamb of God."
The angels know the true glory of God because of their love and commitment to Him. I don’t believe that anyone can experience the fullness of God’s glory until they also have developed their love and commitment to God to its greatest measure.
Step into the water; get out into the deep. Don’t worry about the sharks, the jellyfish or the waves that may come. Jesus will let you walk on the deep water if you keep your eyes on Him just as He did for Peter on the Sea of Galilee.
