God has the power to show you that He is God
But Jesus immediately said to them: “Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.”
Lord, if it’s you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.”
“Come,: he said.
Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus.
Matthew 14:27-29
Read the title one more time and let it sink in… God has the power to show you that He is God.
Did you know that God is always at work? He never sleeps, He never has lunch breaks, He never takes a vacation! God is always at work.
Throughout the day it is so easy for discouragment to take a hold of us.. all it takes is one bad convo, one speeding ticket, one setback. When we allow discouragement to settle in our hearts and take root, what we find is that God no longer is able to show His power in us.
It is so comforting to know that the God of the universe loves you so much that He has taken a special interest in your personal life. He cares about every little thing! He cares about your work, He cares about your relationships, He cares about your church, He even cares when you finally get a date and you find a giant pimple on your face (maybe a bad example… but the point is that God cares!)
God’s deepest desire for you is to show that He is God. He so desires to bring breakthrough in your job situation, heal your sickness, bring unity to your family, bless you with a relationship, bring revival in your ministry…The thing is, he needs you to trust and put your faith in him… and faith is active!
Peter walks out of the boat and experiences that God is GOD. The key thing to see here is that he actively lived out his faith.
Today, you can allow God to show you that He is God simply by putting your trust and faith in Him. Not allowing thoughts, people, circumstances, or anythimg to keep you down. God loves you! He is at work! Because of that you can put your full trust and faith in Him.
Prayer:
Thank you Father for loving me. Thank you for having a special interest in my life.
Today I will put my complete trust and faith in you, and I will expect your blessings today.
