Get Out of the Boat ...

R
Rahman Aug 4, 2004

The following is a posting of a "word" that our Lord told me to pass on to every saint that i meet this year (2004), to which i've been, and am continuing to be obedient, so here it is to YOU! ... It's part of a larger "word" to the church i attend, entitled "Repentance & Holiness" ... --- In 2004 He wants those of us who desire to walk on water out of the boat. He’s looking for His Peters who believe that we have a vision of Him, coming at us from afar off, in the form of a calling of some specific purpose for our lives, that entails that we get out of the perceived safety of our boat to attain. We can see His special purpose for us coming at us, and even though He’s assured us that it’s His purpose, it’s distanced from us by the roiling tempestuous sea of inner doubts and outer distractions, and the howling whipping winds of satan and his hordes screeching that our vision really isn’t Jesus. But God’s will is for those of us with enough faith, and enough desire to reach our vision of Him, is to call satan a liar, and step out of your comfort zones on an “Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water". (Matt. 14: 28, Prov. 29:18). This is His challenge in 2004 to individual Christians, and churches alike. It is essential for bolder saints and bolder churches, to example to those more timid that we can do what Jesus does, as long as the eyes of our faith are kept solely on Him. And equally as important that even if we falter all we’ve got to do is cry out, “LORD, SAVE ME” ... and “IMMEDIATELY” He’ll catch us (Matt. 14: 30, 31).The Word shows that unless we Peters (individuals and churches) walk out on that water to meet Christ, we can’t walk back together with Him to the boat containing all the others without the faith to do so. It’s only after we’ve done our water walk with the Master that the storm ceases. Then comes an escalated acknowledgment and worship of the Lord Jesus Christ as the Son of God from all in the boat. Then the entire congregation arrives immediately over to the other side, and lands in Gennesaret (the garden of the Prince) (Matt. 14:24-36) ---Now He realize this "word" is for only 1 in 12, but If you happen to be that 1/12th. may it speak as an emboldenment to your heart to ... in the name of Jesus ... "Get out of the boat "...

Hmmm... that is good encouragement. I am one to get easily distracted. I have a focus and purpose and then somehow... my passion gets a bit quenched. Soon I find that I'm fulfilling my purpose just by faith.I've usually been one to be good at making personal sacrifices for the greater good and the bigger picture. It was never easy, but I knew that one day it would be worth it. I feel like I've been putting off personal sacrifices to just have Jesus in my life. I've gotten into this pattern that's been going on for more than a year and have tried to break free and let go for sometime now. But letting go has been temporary. I just look back and see a lot of lonliness. But I know I need to look forward and continue to be willing to count the cost of doing God's will. So please pray for me if you think of it. Thank you.
