OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE
OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE
Mat 14:26 And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear.
Mat 14:27 But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid.
Mat 14:28 And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water.
Mat 14:29 And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.
Jesus said one word: Come. And Peter stepped out of the boat and walked on water.
This wasn’t a calm sea. The wind was still roaring, the waves were still high. But Peter wasn’t focused on the storm—he was focused on the Savior.
One step at a time, he did what was humanly impossible. Feet that had never known water-walking found firm footing because faith was in motion.
This is what happens when you respond to Jesus’ call. The impossible becomes possible. The natural bows to the supernatural.
Notice: Jesus didn’t give Peter a detailed plan. He didn’t explain how it would work. He simply said, Come.
Faith moves on a word, not a blueprint.
Many stay in the boat, waiting for the storm to pass, waiting for more clarity, waiting until it feels safe. But the miracle is waiting outside the boat.
You may not feel ready.
The conditions may look impossible.
But if Jesus is calling, the safest place you can be is on the water with Him.
This is the invitation: Step out. Fix your eyes on Jesus. Trust that His word is stronger than your fear.
The water that should sink you becomes the platform where your faith grows.
Jesus, if You’re calling, I will come. I refuse to let fear keep me stuck in the boat. Strengthen my faith to step out, keep my eyes locked on You, and let my life be a testimony of what’s possible when I trust You completely.
