Matthew 14:25-32
Now in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went to them, walking on the sea. 26 And when the disciples saw Him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, “It is a ghost!” And they cried out for fear.
27 But immediately Jesus spoke to them, saying, “Be of good cheer! It is I; do not be afraid.”
28 And Peter answered Him and said, “Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.”
29 So He said, “Come.” And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. 30 But when he saw that the wind was boisterous,[a] he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!”
31 And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” 32 And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased.
Keep your eyes fixed on Jesus!
Don’t give up,
Keep in step, keep walking forward
Listen for His voice
Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me? -Jer 32:27
Listen for His voice
He makes a way where there is no way.
Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible. -Mt 19:26
Nothing is Impossible
Words and Music by Eugene L. Clark
Nothing is impossible when you put your trust in God;
Nothing is impossible when you’re trusting in His Word.
Hearken to the voice of God to thee;
“Is there anything too hard for Me?”
Then put your trust in God alone and rest upon His Word;
For ev’rything, O, ev’rything, yes ev’rything is possible with God.
Galatians 5:25 AMP
If we live by the [Holy] Spirit, let us also walk by the Spirit. [If by the Holy Spirit we have our life in God, let us go forward walking in line, our conduct controlled by the Spirit.]
From Lyn McSweeney:
Don’t give up now
You are nearly there
You need to take the last step
To climb the last stair
You’ve been tested and tried
You’ve been through the fire
You’ve been in the wilderness
Where God did inspire
You’ve been broken and battered
But you’ve stood tall and strong
You’ve had a struggle
But you knew all along
That Jesus was standing
Right by your side
He has watched as you blossomed
His beautiful bride
He saw the tears
When the trials were rough
But Father knew
When you’d had just enough
Don’t give up now
You are nearly there
You need to take the last step
And climb the last stair

I was just looking at this word — blossomed,
the unfolding of a pure white lily
the release of a sweet fragrance
an incense
a scent strong enough to fill the whole earth
released
unfolding
white wings spread — anticipating flight, release.
Oh, that I had wings like a dove! I would fly away and be at rest. -Ps
55:6
Word StudyNetbible Song 2:13;
the vines in blossom have given forth their fragrance[07381]Netbible Song 7:12
Let us see whether the vine has budded{flourished}[06524] and its
blossoms have opened[06605]
fragrance[07381]
scent, fragrance
odour of soothing (technical term for sacrifice to God)
from root smell [07306]
budded[06524]
to break forth as a bud, bloom
to spread; specifically, to fly (as extending the wings)
opened[06605]
to open wide, break forth
appear
to be loosed, freed, released |

Greg!
Psalm 40:2 NASB … He brought me up out of the pit of destruction, out of the miry clay, And He set my feet upon a rock making my footsteps firm.
Look! From: Ps 40:2
*footnote 1: pit of destruction, the place of death is sometimes depicted as a roaring sea
Trust in the Lord
Acknowledge Him in all your ways
Lean on Him
He will make your footsteps firm
No matter the storm or the noise from the raging sea
He will not let your foot slip, He is faithful!
Step forward
Trust Him to establish your steps
The work of your hands
Bloom upon the Rock
Let Him unfold the rose
A beautiful scent released
Filling the heavens
The rose planted, established upon the Rock
Blooms!
Trust in the LORD forever, For in GOD the LORD, we have an everlasting Rock. -Isa 26:4
2 Corinthians 1:21-22 AMP … But it is God Who confirms and makes us steadfast and establishes us [in joint fellowship] with you in Christ, and has consecrated and anointed us [enduing us with the gifts of the Holy Spirit];
22[He has also appropriated and acknowledged us as His by] putting His seal upon us and giving us His [Holy] Spirit in our hearts as the security deposit and guarantee [of the fulfillment of His promise].
establish [950]
to make firm, establish, confirm, make sure
From [949]
stable, fast, firm
metaph. sure, trusty
From [939]
a stepping, walking, that with which one steps, the foot, pace
Quote:
| Psalm 90:16-17 NKJV … Let Your work appear to Your servants, And Your glory to their children. And let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us, And establish the work of our hands for us; Yes, establish the work of our hands. |
