In God’s Presence

And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus. But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me (Matt. 14:29-30 KJV).

The passage above is the popular story of Peter walking on water. However, when he saw the waves, he started to soak within the sight of Jesus. Jesus needed to save him promptly by utilizing physical means (Matt. 14:31 KJV.)

Jesus refered to question as the reason for the disappointment. Diminish had little confidence, and he questioned. Uncertainty is a quiet destroyer among the devotees. It is savage since it is unpretentious and not entirely obvious. Jesus did not state that Peter's concern was unbelief. He said that his concern was question. Dwindle had confidence and strolled on the water at first. His confidence did not abandon him when he began sinking. It just got stirred up with question.

Ever heard someone say, "I knew I truly trusted God," but ask why they didn't get the outcomes they needed? Confidence must be unadulterated and alone to work. Uncertainty is an isolated heart, trusting God and furthermore having confidence in something else.

Diminish trusted Jesus' oath to "come" but also accepted, as an accomplished angler, that the waves he saw could possibly execute him. His heart was partitioned. Uncertainty is suffocating numerous in the Church who accept, but with separated hearts.

Uncertainty will influence you to sink despite the fact that you are loaded with the Holy Spirit. Feed and develop your confidence by the word, and move from little confidence to extraordinary confidence.

Did Jesus also observe the waves? For what reason did Jesus not sink?

If you are not seeing the consequences of confidence that you need, even while knowing you have really trusted, check for question. If question is available, manage it by encouraging unquenchably on God's Word.
