0138 Life of Faith - Walking on Water

LIFE OF FAITH

Walking on Water

One if not a threat if he fights with his fists alone and if his knife is not with him

The word of God has to be in your heart not in your hands or head only

What gets into your will heart will come out through your mouth during trials (Luke 6:45; Joshua 1:8)

Ear & eye is just a channel not a place of destination like the mouth when we eat

Sword is coming of Jesus’ mouth – what is coming of your mouth? (Rev.1:16)

Matthew 14:22-33

If you will not walk on water, water will walk on you

The Seed will bruise the head of the serpent while serpent will bruise His heel (Gen.3:15)

If you don’t trample over demons they will trample over you – they will not hurt you (Luke 10:19)

God of peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly (Rom.16:20)

Sin lies at the door but you should rule over it (Gen.4:7)

You cannot learn to walk on water being parked on the seashore (verse 22)

Christian: “go into your room” “go, son in my field” “go and make disciples” Non-Christian: “go into the kingdom” “go and sin no more” Our purpose on this earth: to do things like for Christ

You cannot learn to walk on water by going backwards after meeting Mr. Storm (verse 24)

Jesus is not the weather reporter but a chief commander Storm is not the evidence that you are out of God’s will (Job, Joseph, David, Disciples) Go forward and you will meet Jesus – go backward and you will meet Satan

Boisterous waves caused by the invisible wind

God uses storms to show Himself – it’s an opportunity for Him but for you it’s a problem

You can walk on water even in the times of storm Water has to power over Jesus it has to have no power over you because Jesus is in you

Walking on water is walking on the promise (verse 28-29)

Water is saying everything that is a fact – visible but word is powerful

Forgiveness, victory, prosperity, healing, freedom, lust & anger & others

You cannot walk on water in your boat (verse 29)

Don’t wait until water will get into your boat to learn to walk on water Boat – physical natural realm Physical senses were not made to know the things of God “trying to see with ears”

Walking on water is walking toward Jesus (verse 28-30)

According to your faith let it be done to you (Mt.9:29)

Life sinks when faith sinks – walking on water doesn’t means storm is out of the way

You are as down/up as your faith is down/up

Look where you’re going Pete? Going to Jesus by looking at someone else

The meaning of the cross. Jesus the precious Son of God had your sin on Him. God rejected Him because of your sin. God will reject you because your sin even though He loves you. It’s more painful for God to watch you carry that for which Jesus died already and it’s going to be more painful for Him to punish you for it. God didn’t sent His Son to die for you to be fair or just but simply because of love for you, not because of profit from you. Slave story – He has papers of your freedom and your adoption into His house as a son not as a slave.
