When the storms of life rage high all around us there is the Hope we can cling to. This Hope that I speak of is Jesus Christ. Everyday as we wake up in the morning He is calling us to get out of the boat and walk on water towards Him like Peter did. Peter did not believe it was the Lord instead he thought Jesus was a ghost, so Peter asked Jesus to command him to come out to Him on the water and He did. Peter got out of the boat and began to walk on the water but when he saw the wind and waves; he began to sink until Jesus pulled him up out of the water. Christ is call us all to live life focused on HIM and not on our problems and circumstances that are beyond our control but not out of God’s hand.Sometimes we deem things that bother us an attack from the enemy but all things are orchestrated by God to prove our Character and our faith in Him. Peter asked for a test to see if it was Jesus who was walking in the midst of the water. Jesus told Peter, “You of little faith why did you doubt?” It was the unbelief and fear that caused Peter to sink. If there are any circumstances in your life that you are in unbelief. I suggest you and I both repent of those things where we have doubt and know and trust God’s Word does not return void. Begin to read the following verses and meditate on them. Write them on an index card and stick in a place you will see it everyday.
Jeremiah 1:11 NASB
“Then the Lord said to me, ” You have seen well, for I am watching over My word to perform it.
Joshua 1:7
Be strong and courageous for the Lord your God is with you where ever you go.
The Lord accomplishes the things He has spoken to be. His word is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword. So speak the Word of God over Your life.
