STOP WATCHING THE WIND Matt. 14:22-33 There are different things that we can focus on and depending on what we look at will determine our failure or success in the Spirit! There are different things that we can focus on and depending on what we look at will determine our failure or success in the Spirit! This ship was designed to withstand the storm, it was designed to ride through heavy winds and high waves. Not only were they in a safe place, but they were also there with many friends. But, as they sat in the boat, safe and sound, imagine their shock when they look outside the four walls of their ship and find that Jesus is walking on the water! I believe that Jesus was giving them an object lesson. And in a great burst of faith, Peter jumps up and says, "Lord, I am tired of sitting in this boat, I am ready to come out where you are!" He had left his comfort zone, his safety net, the walls that protected him, and he was now moving in the elements that Jesus had already mastered. Peter's eyes were on one thing, and one thing alone: JESUS! And, if he kept his eyes on Jesus, he was alright! And, when his focus was turned from the Master of the storm to the storm itself, he began to sink! Stop watching the wind and realize that you serve the God of the wind! Stop worrying about the storm and realize that you serve the God of the storm! LET'S KEEP WATCHING JESUS.
