CHANGED BY CHRIST IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STORM

Matthew 14:24-25, 28-29

But the ship was now in the midst of the sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary. And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea. *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.

Before Peter walked on water, he and the other disciples saw Jesus walking on the water during the storm. They had never seen anyone walk on water and in addition to the fear of the storm, they were also scared that they were seeing a ghost. Jesus introduced Himself to them and told them to be calm. He said, “…Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid,” (Matt.14:27b). Right now, Jesus wants to introduce Himself to you as the Lord over that situation you may be facing. He wants you to see Him walking or dominating over that situation. If Jesus was going through what you are going through right now, how do you think He will handle it?

As you see Jesus exercised His victory and dominion over that situation, something is going to happen to you. The same grace that is upon Jesus to dominate that situation is filling your life right now. As you focus on Jesus, you are being transformed into His image from glory to glory by the Spirit (2Cor.3:18).

Stop focusing on the storm. Keep your focus on Jesus. He came to show you that by His life in you, you can do what people of this world cannot do. Right now, Jesus is transforming you by His Spirit and He is
inviting you to step out in victory by His wisdom and strength. You shall do the impossible. You shall overcome.

Prayer:
Dear Father, right now, as I focus and see Jesus dominating every challenge I am facing, I receive your strength to dominate also.
