walking on tidal waves
“At about three in the morning, [Jesus] came walking toward them on the lake.” —Matthew 14:25
When Jesus walked on the water, He showed that He had the authority and power to “quickly crush Satan” under His feet (Rm 16:20) and to heal all diseases (see Mt 14:36). Jesus walks not just on water but on tidal waves and tempests. Because “full authority has been given” to Jesus “both in heaven and on earth” (Mt 28:18), “He is always able to save those who approach God through Him” (Heb 7:25). Jesus is the “Pantocrator,” the all-powerful God (see Rv 1:8). Jesus’ name is “above every other name” (Phil 2:9). Therefore, “there is no other name in the whole world given to men by which we are to be saved” (Acts 4:12).
In this two-thousand twenty second anniversary of Jesus’ Incarnation, give your life totally to Jesus. Accept Jesus as your Savior, Lord, and God by His standards. Worship Jesus (see Rv 5:13).
Prayer: Father, teach me to walk on waves.
