*GET OUT OF THE BOAT*


*By Pastor E O Gabriel  14 July 2023*


SCRIPTURE: And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus -

*Matthew 14:29*


The Disciples were in a boat and saw Jesus walking on water, they thought it was a Ghost and were afraid. 


Jesus spoke to them, saying be of Good Cheer; it is I, be not afraid. 


Peter answered if it is you Lord, bid me to come and Jesus said Come. Peter got out of the boat and walked on water.


*The significance of Peter walking on water are numerous including:*


*(1)* The Impossible is Possible. 


It is only Impossible because no one has tried it before - *Luke 1:37*


*(2)* Breaking New Grounds and reaching New Heights is feasible - *Isaiah 43:18-19*


*(3)* Standing shoulder above others is reliasable - *Deuteronomy 28:13*


*(4)* Limitations are only real in our Minds but not in Reality - *Genesis 11:6*


*(5)* We are wired to do whatever Jesus can do - *John 14:12*


*Peter came out of the boat but had to deal with fear, distraction and doubt but with the help of the Lord, he overcame them all.*


*The help from the Lord comes when we focus on Him and not our Problems.*


The Psalmist said, I will lift up mine eyes on the Hills, from whence cometh my help. My help cometh from the Lord which made the Heaven and Earth - *Psalms 121:1-2*


*Prayer:*

Father, Please help me to break New Grounds, empower me to overcome my fears, distractions and doubts in Jesus Name.
