  *GET OUT OF THE BOAT*


*By Pastor E O Gabriel  14 July 2025: Share*

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 Christ Name.

And in the beginning, God created the earth. It means, in the beginning, Love created the earth. So, the earth was created by Love and it is meant to be operated by love.* •Unfortunately, we live in a generation where many people are bankrupt of love.  •It is important, therefore, to understand the major principles of love, that is, what love is all about.  •N...
