2013REMOVING THE
SOUND DOCTRINE DistrustAll
we are living in this time the situation has created an environment of LACK OF
CONFIDENCE. For
many it is difficult to trust these days: distrust mechanic, doctor, teacher,
neighbors, the police in order to trust someone is impossible right?
Some
are suspicious of your husband or wife is cheating thinking. Distrust
to ourselves in many cases live in a world of mistrust of deception and lies.
However
there is a passage in the Bible which tells us enough confidence from a
particular person.
(Matthew
14:22-36) "22 Immediately Jesus made the disciples get into the boat and go
before him to the other side, while he dismissed the crowd. 23
dismissed them, he went up the mountain apart to pray: and when even was come,
he was there alone. 24
But the ship was at sea, tossed with waves: for the wind was contrary.
25
And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea.
26
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 straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer, I am not
afraid! 28
Peter answered him, and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the
water. 29 And he said, Come.
And
Peter got out of the boat, walked on the water to go to Jesus. 30
But seeing the wind, he was afraid and, beginning to sink, he cried, saying,
Lord, save me! 31
And immediately Jesus stretched forth his hand, and caught him, and said: O you
of little faith! Why did you doubt?
32 And when
they climbed into the boat, the wind ceased. 33
Then those who were in the boat worshiped him, saying, 'Truly you are the Son of
God. 34 And gone
over, they came to land at Gennesaret. 35
When he met the men of that place, sent out into all that country round about,
and brought unto him all sick, 36 and begged Him that they might only touch the
hem of his cloak, and all who touched him were healed ".
I
believe that Peter never in her life had she imagined it would someday walk on
water. Jesus
could have prepared and trained in many things but nothing would be equal to
walking on water. This
time I want to talk of 7 characteristics of people leaving the boat to walk on
water. Speaking
of walking on water I mean to trust in God and believe in Jesus that YES YOU
CAN. If you can walk on
water and walk in FE. (Heb
11:6) "But without faith it is impossible to please God, because it is necessary
that cometh to God must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who
seek him."
1. The
walking on water RECOGNIZE the presence of God himself!This
passage follows immediately after Jesus has fed 5,000 people with 5 loaves and 2
fish. Jesus
had sent his disciples to leave the boat to cross the Sea of Galilee.
Jesus
wanted to be alone to spend time alone with his Father, as I used to.
Interestingly,
many times we as human beings do not want to spend time alone with God when
Jesus was the Son of God, who was part man and part God himself needed time
alone with God.
The
disciples obeyed and came to pass that the sea did not look good. To
Peter that his whole life had been on a fishing boat, before Jesus would have
called it was like returning to something he knew and knew well.As
for Peter this was the daily life, because he had always done. The sea was his passion and his life!
The
only other difference is that this time sometimes got up a
storm.
Now
notice that it's 4 am and suddenly someone from the disciples notice a person
who is walking on the water and immediately launches the alarm that is A GHOST!
Now
the question is: What to Jesus walking on water at 4 AM? (Mark
6: 45-48) tells us that Jesus knew that his disciples were in a tremendous
problem and decides to walk on water. Nothing more, nothing
less AHEAD FOR them. "45
And straightway he constrained his disciples get into the boat and go before him
to Bethsaida, on the other side, while he dismissed the crowd. 46
And when he had sent them away, he departed into a mountain to pray, 47 and when
it was evening, the boat was at sea, and he alone on the land. 48
And seeing them toiling in rowing, for the wind was contrary unto them, about
the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea, and would
have passed. "
One wonders: But Why? The
disciples were in a predicament and Mark says that Jesus had all the appearance
as if he was going to pass by them and get there before the other side.
Imagine you:1.
Being
in the boat struggling against the wind to fall into the sea.Two. Jesus
was not with them in the boat.Three. Jesus was
walking on the sea and had intentionsaccording to the Gospel
of Mark, have passed by.Here
is the revelation of these and other similar situations because Jesus was
walking on water and even had "intent" to pass by without paying attention.
It
is because something was about to happen in this story and Peter's life that
would change forever.
NOTEN
THIS:Moses:
In (Genesis 3:1-5) Moses encounters a bush (a shrub) that burned and was not
consumed. Says
that Moses was curious and walked over to see why this bush was not consumed.
Something
was about to happen in the life of Moses that would change
forever.Elijah
(1 Kings 19:11-13) Elijah, the prophet of God, had escaped tired of struggling
and wanted to hide from God. Writing
says that God sent wind, earthquake and a still small because something was
about to happen in the life of Elijah. He
was about to meet the God who wanted to use greatly.
There
is something remarkable in all of these circumstances God used to speak
intimately to a person to use it. I spoke to
Moses through a bush that was burning. Elias through the elements
of the wind. In
our history there is something that was about to happen in Peter's life that
would change 360 degrees. The
story tells us that there were 12 disciples sitting in that boat and all cried
with a loud voice because they feared that it was walking on water was a GHOST
course.
However
we note that Jesus says NO FEAR, I AM! HAVE CONFIDENCE, ME, JESUS!
We
do not know what 11 of the 12 disciples answered to hear these words from that
course GHOST but we know that one of them was quick to RECOGNIZE THE PRESENCE OF
CHRIST IN THAT SAME NIGHT SINISTER on the Sea of Galilee.
When
something unusual is happening in your life is important not to SHOUT TO "A
GHOST" but you can RECOGNIZE the presence of Jesus Christ himself in his life,
but because Jesus then maybe long pass in your life and you will have
missed
the opportunity to WALK ON WATER. Stay
awake when Jesus pass near you do not miss the opportunity that he wants you to
live a supernatural life. Once
you have recognized him as your Redeemer himself is going about your life ...
put on your seat belt because you will experience a trip like you've never
experienced before.
Two. Those who
walk on water DISCERN between Fe and Recklessness(Mat
14:28) The passage tells us that Peter said to Jesus, "Lord, if it be thou, bid
me come unto thee on the water." For Matthew tells us that Peter asked Jesus for
permission to leave of
the boat and walk on water. Because
Peter did not just jump out of the boat and started talking to Jesus.
This
is not simply a history of taking risks! Courage
is not all what it takes to do great things in life, must be accompanied by
wisdom and understanding. This
story is not ONLY to push people to take risks. If
you think this story is just to encourage you to take risks you lost all sense
of the story and has become one of the 11 disciples in the boat with
fear.
This
passage is take a giant leap of faith, risk, and for this we have to ASK BEFORE
with Jesus if you agree to do so. Peter asks Jesus: SEND. In
other words he was saying Lord I want to walk on water but I need your MANDES or
PERMIT you to give me.
Listen
if Peter had left the boat to walk on water without the permission of Jesus
surely had sunk immediately, he needed the approval of Jesus. Look
there are many situations that come in life that seem to be UNIQUE in its genre.
However,
if you do not ask God permission to take these steps you may be making a grave
mistake. You
have to DISCERN between FE and BE RECKLESS HAVE to make important decisions in
life.1. Perhaps you are to
take the decision to marry.Two. Perhaps you are
to take the decision to divorce.Three. Perhaps
you are by making the decision to buy a house HAS ASKED GOD FOR
PERMIT?
Three. Those who walk on water OUT
of the boatIn Matthew 14:29 Jesus
replied to Peter, "Come." In
other words Jesus gives its approval to the request of Fe that Peter was
proposing. Before
I go I want you to put in the situation of the
disciples.
1) It was night and there
was a great darkness.2)
Not only was night there was a storm at sea with waves 2-3 meters high
possibly.3)
For high and had struggled for a long time and were tired of paddling upwind and
now the situation please Peter4)
The boat was safe, at least one not being drowned in the boat.5) The sea was angry with
towering waves.6) The wind was blowing very
hard.7)
Any climatic situation had been quite difficult to walk on water when the water
is calm, or not.
Now
also, notice this, Peter realized that this was a UNIQUE opportunity that never
would have had. He
knew that Jesus WAS GOING and if you did not use this opportunity who knows what
would happen. IMMUTABLE
LAW IS THAT IF YOU WANT TO WALK ON WATER HAVE TO LEAVE THE BOAT. If
you want to experience great things in your life you have to get out of the boat
where you are. You
have to shake and say to God: God, I'm tired of the place where I am!
I'm tired of being me!
I want more from you! Change my character!
Now let me
ask you something personal: WHAT IS YOUR BOAT? What
is the place you think it is quiet and peaceful where nobody bothers you?
What is your boat? Then I will
use fictitious names as illustration:1)
For Robert, his boat has been his work as a carpenter all his life, however long
he feels the call to ministry and not encouraged to leave his boat, he does not
know if it will support to live, that's the boat Roberto.2)
For Mark, his boat has been the secret for months and has struggled with
pornography, because secretly visited many places on the Internet and bought
porn magazines "Playboy", he is afraid that if out
of this boat accuse everyone, so the best is where is with hidden and secret
sin, this is the boat of Mark.3)
Mary, his boat is the house, Mary is afraid to invite people to the house
because he feels shame it is not presentable, but does little or nothing to
change the situation, that is the boat of Mary.4)
To Marta, his boat is their home too, but she is full of carrying burdens that
God cares not imposed, but take away all the time you should devote to the work
of Jesus Christ, this is the boat of Marta.WHAT IS YOUR BOAT? If
you want to experience great things in your life YOU NEED TO GET OFF THE BOAT!
You
have to take a step of obedience and say YES LORD I WANT TO WALK ON
WATER!
April. Those who walk on
water FACE to ProblemsIn
Matthew 14:29 So Peter goes steps out of the boat and the other and start
walking on water. Peter
was in his glory walking on water having all your friends in the boat that they
were looking in great AMAZEMENT. I
can imagine and clarify that just my imagination that this writing but I base my
imagination for their personality characteristics of these apostles
to:
1)
Andrew his brother, saying, Behold my brother is walking on
water!2)
Tomas possibly was saying, "If you would not be seeing with my own eyes I would
not believe!3)
possibly Judas was doing accounts "as could the market this miracle saying: Come
see the man Walker waters for only $ 10".That
must have been feeling this experience to Peter to walk on water and even, for a
moment until he comes to think that maybe he is the great, the only thing that
was released to walk on water. BUT ....... ..... as
always there is a but in the history ...
In
Matthew 14:30 Peter began to see the problems of his walk on water. Peter starts to
see the water ..... waves .... problems!
The
truth is that it should not have been surprised to Peter all this, he knew the
waves, the wind knew, knew how deep is the sea of Galilee.
But
all this begins to overwhelm, Peter sees the wave height and fails to see Jesus
who told COME! Many
today are afraid to travel so insecure that produces a lot of mistrust.
They are afraid to leave
their homes. They are
afraid to leave YOUR BOAT.
The
11 disciples were in the BARCA and therefore never experienced what it means to
walk on water. Peter
at least for a while was in the GLORIA walking in the supernatural when it is
not physically possible by the LAW OF GRAVITY! But
for a while his eyes off of Jesus and fixed the problems and the problem almost
drowns.
There
is a principle to be learned in all this and is there: A RISK AT ALL.
But
if you do not take the risk and you face PROBLEMS never win! Get
this through your HEAD IF YOU STAY IN THE BOAT ALL YOUR LIFE EVER make
progress!If
you are in the boat saying I CAN NOT! You can not really. But
if you say I DO NOT CARE PROBLEMS GET OUT OF THE BOAT I then see that IF
POSSIBLE.If
you have problems with alcohol, pornography, lying, infidelity or any hidden
sin, and say that the problem is too large and not always be looking to Jesus in
the boat and never really progress in your life.YOU HAVE TO GET
OUT OF THE BOAT AND FACE YOUR PROBLEMS. If
you've never told anyone about your faith in Christ you'll always be in the boat
and never will experience the joy of being able to lead someone to Christ's
feet.
May. Those
who walk on water as price ACCEPTED Fear GrowthFear and growth go hand in hand.
In
our lives if we are not healthy and holy fear we fall. Peter
stopped for a moment to fix their eyes on Jesus and it's time he began to falter
and collapse. There
are times when we left the BARCA and say, "Oh this is not easy, everything is
going well, I do not need God in my life" and it is in that moment when we fall
deeper than ever.(Proverbs
3:5-8) "5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own
understanding. 6 In all
thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. 7
Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil: 8 It will be
health to thy navel, and marrow to thy bones. " Says
not us to trust our own understanding but in God himself AND HAVE FEAR OF GOD.
The
walking on water accept fear as something healthy and helps them grow because
they rely on himself but on God.
June. Those who
walk on water EXCEED Failures and problemsIn
Matthew 14:30 Peter after failing in his attempt to walk on water soon realized
what the problem was and trusted Jesus saying, "Lord, save me!". Look
Peter could have said to his 11 companions who were in the boat: "Hey guys come
and save me, I'm sinking". NO,
this is not what he did, nor began to swim alone. Pedro
had discovered what his FAILURE AND PROBLEM and attends the SI could only help.
My
brothers who leave the boat and walk on water know there are problems but also
know who it is that they can get out of the problems. Perhaps
you feel that you've tried many times to put a solution to the problems that
plague you but there is only one solution to the problem, JESUS CHRIST.
If
you never tried to do with The I invite you this afternoon you can ask Jesus to
help you.
July. Those who walk
on water LEARN to Waiting on the LordThis
passage is not just a story that highlights the risk of Pedro, leaving the boat,
walking on water but also Fe LEARN TO EXPECT, PATIENCE! In
(Mark 6:48) "And seeing them toiling in rowing, for the wind was contrary unto
them, about the fourth watch of the night he came to them, walking on the sea,
and would have passed." Mark
tells us that Jesus was watching them from a distance they rowed with great
fatigue. This
means that Jesus knew that they were being troubled by the storm at sea and it
was only when it was them until about 4 AM. One
would wonder why Jesus was merely to help or even before he could see them being
could have commanded the winds do not blow over and calmed the storm.
But we are told that it was
not. But
the disciples were rowing alone at sea and GREAT FATIGUE!
1)
Sometimes you have asked for God knowing that we are suffering does not help
us?2)
Because God does not come to our aid when we pray and ask Him to help
us?3)
Because the Bible says: "Call to Me and I will answer" also says "Whatever you
ask in prayer, I will give it"?There
is a revelation that stands out in this story and that is part of the "Out of
the Boat and Walk on Water." EXPECT IN OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST.
It's all
part of the process of learning and growing. Do
you know why it is important that Jesus did not come immediately adjacent to the
disciples when they were in trouble?
(Romans
5:3-4) says "And not only so, but we also rejoice in our sufferings, knowing
that suffering produces endurance, 4 and perseverance, proven character, and
proven character, hope."
This
is the lesson of his Sound Doctrine that Jesus wants to teach his disciples,
that we have to learn patience and maturity it brings to our lives. Patience and
Waiting produce growth and maturity. What is our greatest hope?
That
Jesus will come some day to pick us up and take us to meet Him in the clouds as
he makes a new heaven and a new earth.For
Jesus arrive at the most difficult sea crossing was the best time to teach the
disciples who He was because the disciples still did not understand who Jesus
was.At
the time when Jesus calms the storm the disciples exclaim "Truly this is the Son
of God." God
wants to teach you to wait to fully enjoy the sweet taste of his presence, of
his healing hand, his embrace of the Father.
CONCLUSION:Removes
all distrust your heart, trust God that He will. I do not know if you know who
Jesus is. I
do not know if you are still in YOUR BOAT and have not been walking on water in
FE. If
you have not you given your life to Him today Jesus wants to go near you because
Jesus says COME. Do
not miss the opportunity to leave your BOAT and a journey is unique and full of
adventures, is more the only promised you eternal life. For
us that salvation experience and the challenge is how to get out of our carnal
state and mediocre to a supernatural life. If
not get out of "your boat", the place where no one bothers you, the seat always
warm up here in the congregation will never experience what it feels like
walking on water, in the supernatural life that Christ offers
us.
