Matthew 14:29
“And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.” Peter not only had faith to follow Jesus, but he had faith to ask to Jesus to do the impossible through him. Matthew 14:28 “And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water.” Jesus walking on the water was a miracle in itself… but Peter had the audacity to ask the Lord if He would allow him to walk on the water too. “Come.” One word from Jesus, spoken as a result of Peter’s faith-filled request. We often ask for Jesus to do a miracle in our lives, but have you ever asked Him to do one through you? Peter walking on the water had nothing to do with his ability. God empowered and allowed his feet not to sink when he came down out of the boat. His eyes were fixed upon Jesus, because he knew he did not have the power within himself to do what he was doing. The Scripture proves this by the fact that as soon as Peter took his eyes off Jesus and looked at the wind boisterous around him, he began to sink. Yet the moment he cried out amidst his fear, the Lord rescued him. Matthew 14:31 “And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said unto him, O thou of little faith, wherefore didst thou doubt?” Discard the doubt today. Keep your eyes on Jesus. Mark 9:23 “Jesus said unto him, If thou canst believe, all things are possible to him that believeth.” Ask Him to do the impossible through you for His glory.
