Keep Your Eyes on Jesus

"We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, on whom our faith depends from start to finish..." Hebrews 12:2a (New Living)

Sometimes we face challenges which look like 'wind' in our lives despite the fact that we have heard God and are sure of His miracle working power. At that time what we need to do is to keep our eyes on Jesus and treat the 'wind' as a distraction whose aim is to create doubt in our hearts about what God has said. Devil knows that a man cannot sink until he doubts God.

In Mathew 14:25-31, we read the account of Peter who walked on water because Jesus told him to do it. But when the wind came, he was distracted; he looked at the wind, doubted the word and began to sink. Beloved, keep your eyes on Jesus, he can take care of the wind.

In another account in Mark 4:36-39, Jesus was in the boat with the disciples when the wind came. They were afraid but cried to Him. He rebuked the wind and that was the end of it. Jesus will do the same for you as long as He is in the boat of your life. So, beloved,don't be distracted, keep your eyes on Jesus, He will take you there. When you keep your eyes on Him, it means you stand upon His word.

You will realize your dreams. You will not sink in Jesus name.
