Topic: It Takes Risk To Rise
Text: Matthew 14:25-30
” And in the fourth watch of the night Jesus went unto them, walking on the sea. [26] And when the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were troubled, saying, It is a spirit; and they cried out for fear. [27] But straightway Jesus spake unto them, saying, Be of good cheer; it is I; be not afraid. [28] And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water. [29] And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus. [30] But when he saw the wind boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink, he cried, saying, Lord, save me.”
Greetings of consistent progress to you our valued reader and friend wherever you are connecting with us for today’s edition of your firerised feast of the word and prayers worldover.
We believe God for you that according to
Psalm 68:1 which says:
” Let God arise, let his enemies be scattered: Let them also that hate him flee before him.”
God of all wonders will arise on your behalf
He will raise standards against your antagonists
God will disorganise every gang-up against you
Therefore you will rule in the midst of your enemies in Jesus’ name. AMEN & AAAMEN.
We are focusing on the fact that it takes risk to rise. Someone may say, how does this sound in the context of our spirituality.
Faith in this kingdom it may interest you is the equivalence of risk in the business world, and it takes such steps to step up.UNTIL YOU ARE READY TO TAKE A RISKY STEP OF FAITH, YOU ARE NOT READY TO RISE.
In our reference above Jesus was walking on water and his disciples were naturally frightened and Peter being the outspoken one demanded that the master invites them and the request was granted. As soon he stepped out on water it soli2dify under his feet, but as soon as the evironment entered into his mind he started sinking.
A FEW LESSONS HERE FOR OUR MEDITATION.
#1…Majority of people in the church are aversed to taking risk in various areas of their personal lives and some even wrongly believe that taking risk is unscriptural, many are therefore praying but few are taking action, and few are rising!!!
#2…Nobody stands out who does not take risk somebody once, said not taking any risk is by far the greatest risk of all.
#3…The rich experience of Peter in walking on water, sinking and being rescued by Jesus and walking on the water to the boat with Jesus is an unquantifiably rich one both spiritually and physically that only eternity can fully capture. After all it is those who risk going too far that can tell how far they can go. SO HOW FAR CAN YOU GO?
#4…Those who don’t take risk only limit the extent to which God can help them. That was one of the problems of Israel, THEY LIMITED THE HOLY ONE OF ISRAEL!!!!(Psalm 78:41).
#5…Finally for now, taking risk is what takes fear out of risk taking, it was when Peter did it that others became convinced that they could have done it as well. Whatever record has not been broken is probably the one that has not been targeted and tested. It is impossible is only resident in the imagination of status quo maintenance officers.
Brace up, in order to go up dearly beloved, because it is written concerning you in Isaiah 54:3 that:
” for thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.”
FEW POINTS ON SUCCESSFUL RISK TAKING
On a final note, if you desire to be successful in rising through risk taking, meditate and apply the following tips.
A. Take moderate risk never rush into extreme risk taking for whatever reason.
B. Be properly informed and educated about what it takes but avoid the paralysis of analysis.
Never expect everything to be in place before you maje a move.
C. Load yourself with faith building word of God and apply them diligently. FAITH COMES BY HEARING!!!
