*DAILY DEW 18/DECEMBER/2024* *Peter, the missionary* (2) _Key Bible Text:_ *"And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water. And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus."* (Matthew 14:28-29) _Bible Insight_ They had just seen a ghost. So they thought. Whoever walks on water? But Jesus replied, "It is I be not afraid." Peter, bold and daring, responded, "If it is you, ask me to come on the water" Such things are easy for Jesus. "Come on then", Jesus said. Peter, stepped out of the boat, walking on water. A few minutes later, he began to sink as he became afraid of the storms and waves splashing all around him. His basic science knowledge had quickly attacked him. He reached out to Jesus, crying, "Lord, Save Me!" I see three kinds of faith at work. 1. The faith that says, Bid me to come walking on water. 2. The faith that actually walks on water. 3. And the faith that says "Lord, Save Me, I am sinking" In Peter's life, he actually experienced all three phases in his missionary calling. Why was it only Peter that could ask the Lord to order him to come walking on water? That's a level of faith. Jesus never said, "Peter, Come". He simply said, "Come!". Why was it only Peter that left the boat to walk on water? When Peter sank, he immediately knew who to call upon for help. Who do you call when your faith seems to fail you?! It takes faith in God's ability to save, to call him in the time of trouble. _MEDITATION:_ *As a missionary, no matter the level your faith maybe at, keep pressing from one degree of faith to another higher degree. It is okay to experience the walking on water faith. It is also okay to experience the Lord Save Me Faith. More importantly, keep pressing towards higher levels of faith* *#DavidJoshuaEgbochuo* *#Mr_Positive_Impact* *#Daily_Wisdom_for_living* *#Becoming_More_Like_Jesus* *#The_Rise_of_An_Army* *#Daily_Dew_Devotional* *#Hello_DECEMBER,2024* ❤ *TO REGISTER FOR #HTP2024* https://bit.ly/REGISTER-4-HTP2024-OUTREACH *Telegram Group:* https://t.me/joinchat/NzXQlVc9Hx7LfaRSnh9fHg Feel Free to Share with Friends.
