WHEN THE DISCIPLES SAW HIM WALKING ON THE SEA THEY WERE TROUBLED, SAYING, IT IS A GHOST! AND THEY CRIED OUT FOR FEAR. BUT IMMEDIATELY JESUS SPOKE TO THEM, SAYING, BE OF GOOD CHEER! IT IS I; DO NOT BE AFRAID. SO HE SAID, COME. AND WHEN PETER HAD CAME DOWN OUT OF THE BOAT HE WALKED ON THE WATER TO GO TO JESUS. BUT HE SAW THAT THE WIND WAS BOISTEROUS, HE WAS AFRAID; AND BEGINNING TO SINK HE CRIED OUT SAYING "LORD SAVE ME." MATTHEW 14:26,27,29MATTHEW 14:26,27,29
English: King James Version (1611) - KJV
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. ²⁹ And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.

Now Peter began to sink because he took his eyes off of Jesus, and focused on the waves all around him. This was because his faith faltered. So what did Peter do but reach out to Jesus who was the only one that could save him! You see Peter forgot to WALK BY FAITH, NOT BY SIGHT. 2 CORINTHIANS 5:72 CORINTHIANS 5:7

Now we may not be walking on water, but when our troubles surround us, if we focus on them instead of placing our faith in Jesus, we will start to sink as well!

So, when you are facing difficulties and troubles surround you; keep your eyes on Jesus' power rather then on your problems. Also when you are apprehensive about your troubles, and if you doubt Christ's presence or His great ability to help; remember that He is the only one that can really help you as well!

Now tonight why not read this story. You will find it in The Book of Matthew 14:22-33Matthew 14:22-33
English: King James Version (1611) - KJV
22 And straightway Jesus constrained his disciples to get into a ship, and to go before him unto the other side, while he sent the multitudes away. ²³ And when he had sent the multitudes away, he went up into a mountain apart to pray: and when the evening was come, he was there alone. 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. boisterous: or, strong 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.
