Matthew 14:24-33 records the supernatural event of Jesus walking on the water.
The Bible describes that the disciples of Jesus were in the boat, in the middle of the sea, tossed around by waves, facing a contrary wind.
This is when they see Jesus walking on the water and they were afraid. Jesus asks them not to be afraid and in the end, they worship him, the Lord of all creation, exclaiming, that He truly is the Son of God.
What is the sea, you are in the middle of? Is it a health crisis, a financial crisis, a spiritual downtime …?
What are the waves of doubt that are tossing you around? Are you questioning the sovereignty of God?
What are the winds that are buffeting against your beliefs? What are you afraid of ?
While the world today is concerned of the state of economy it is in, with unemployment and layoffs on the rise, with the health condition of men/women taking disastrous turns, Jesus is telling us just one thing – DO NOT BE AFRAID. Jesus is asking us to see His footprints on the water.
When all other ground is sinking sand, On Jesus Christ, the SOLID ROCK, we can stand.
He is the Lord of all creation, the LORD over all your circumstances. See his footprints in the middle of your circumstances and your waves of doubt will be tossed away and all contrary winds of opinions will dissipate. He is to be worshiped as He truly is the Son of God.
Matthew 14:24-33
24. But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary.
25. And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea.
26. And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.
27. But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.
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.
30. But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.
31. And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?
32. And when they were come into the ship, the wind ceased.
33. Then they that were in the ship came and worshipped him, saying, Of a truth thou art the Son of God.
