REVEALED WORD TODAY

// Read: Matthew 14:22-32 //
22 Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go on ahead of him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowd. 23 After he had dismissed them, he went up on a mountainside by himself to pray. Later that night, he was there alone, 24 and the boat was already a considerable distance from land, buffeted by the waves because the wind was against it.

25 Shortly before dawn Jesus went out to them, walking on the lake. 26 When the disciples saw him walking on the lake, they were terrified. “It’s a ghost,” they said, and cried out in fear.

27 But Jesus immediately said to them: “Take courage! It is I. Don’t be afraid.”

28 “Lord, if it’s you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.”

29 “Come,” he said.

Then Peter got down out of the boat, walked on the water and came toward Jesus. 30 But when he saw the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!”

31 Immediately Jesus reached out his hand and caught him. “You of little faith,” he said, “why did you doubt?”

32 And when they climbed into the boat, the wind died down.

MEDITATION:
There is a need to discover the purpose of what you are doing or what you want God to do for you. You can walk on water but knowing the purpose of it, is what will sustain you. It is not enough for you to desire to walk on water but for what purpose? The reason why Peter began to sink is because he did not define purpose for that supernatural encounter.

PRAYER: Lord of heaven, open my eyes to the purpose of my pursuits.
