Dont look at the storm

"But when he SAW the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out,saying, ' Lord, save me!'" Mathew 14:30.

Peter saw Jesus walked on the sea. He desired to do so as well and got Jesus' word to do it. He took the step of faith and started walking on the sea. But suddenly, he saw the storm and was afraid, he doubted Jesus' word and began to sink!

You are sure that what you are doing is what you have always really desired to do. It may be a business, career, academic pursuit, ministry etc. You prayed and got God's confirmation before proceeding on it. You are sure you heard God. Everything started and was going well until the enemy sent a storm. This may be storm of financial stress, disappointment, discouragement or even failure. The storm is a challenge that makes one to ask himself whether he actually heard God.

Hear this: DON'T LOOK AT THE STORM!. if you look at the storm, you may be afraid like Peter and think the storm is stronger than the promise. This may lead you to doubt God. And you cannot sink until you doubt God's word.

There are three things you need to know about the storm:
1. Storms don't last. They die quickly.
2. Jesus is stronger than the storm. Infact storm obeys His voice.
3. You can calm the storm by speaking to it.

Perhaps you have looked at the storm, doubted God and began to sink; there is a way out. Just like Peter, ask God to save you and He will.
The storm is over. It is celebration time in Jesus name.
