24/7 DOXA Content, 21st September-LORDING OVER THE STORMS
_____________________________________
FOCAL TEXT: Matthew 14 vs 30►►”But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.”~| KJV |______________________________________
FRUITFUL greetings, Cherished one. The events written in the Bible are not just for information but for learning which impact transformation when the principles are applied. Nothing was a show-off or just a historical account. Why did they record the miraculous exploits of Jesus Christ with the disciples and other people? The main reason is to tell the world that Jesus has power over situations and the affairs of humanity. And Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today and forevermore (Hebrews 13:8).
The Bible records that Peter asked Jesus if he could walk on the water to come to Him. Jesus said yes and bid him come. Our focal text says on his way going, he saw the boisterous wind and became afraid. Instead of Him to see and rely on Jesus words “Come”, he saw the boisterous wind. This means that the fact that Jesus told you to come does not mean the storms will greet you. No, the storms of life are not your friend. Challenges are part of life whether you are a believer or not; but believers always have an advantage over unbelievers in that God has given the believers all that it takes to dominate and conquer every challenge.
Beloved, Peter sunk when he shifted his focus from the words of Jesus. Allow the words of Christ to feed your faith and give you the impetus or driving force to move on in life. Don’t overtrust your own abilities than what Christ has said. Don’t let the challenges of life scare you from achieving God’s best for your life. Lord over life’s challenges by focusing on the power in the words of Christ which is able to shut down every distraction. The rich grace of our Lord Jesus Christ abounds towards you always.
