Beloved, Is Jesus In Your Boat?
MEDITATE ON THIS
“Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding” [PROVERBS 3:5].
WELCOME TO A GLORIOUS NEW WEEK. ENSURE THAT IN ALL YOU DO OR UNDERTAKE, JESUS CHRIST IS AT THE CENTRE OF IT AND YOUR SHIP WILL BE SECURE
Have you ever been on a journey and the opposition against your progress was so intense that you felt you would never get to your destination? If your answer is yes, then know that you are not alone. Life is like embarking on a journey to a destination. Every trip has its obstacles and hurdles. While on a journey, the disciples of Jesus Christ once found themselves in this kind of tough situation.
It was so bad that they felt their boat was going to sink. In fact, water was already entering their boat, and going by all they saw, it appeared nothing could be done. If you are facing a similar situation today, simply make this confession to yourself: my boat cannot sink, I shall reach my goal and nothing can stop my trip in Jesus Christ mighty and matchless name! Amen!
Why will my boat not sink? The reason is because Jesus Christ is in the boat of my life. Nobody and nothing can “swallow the ship the ship where lies the Master of ocean and earth and skies,” a song – writer declared. The greatest mistake you can is to embark on a journey without Jesus in your boat. It is important to note here that you have Jesus Christ in the boat of your life, which you can do by receiving Him as your Lord and personal Saviour.
In addition to this, you should also have Him in the boat of your endeavours. Do you know that if Jesus is in the boat of your life but not in the boat of your personal endeavours, those projects or plans can sink? Many believers today take it for granted that because they are saved, automatically they will scale through any rough waters, including projects in which they did not involve the Lord.
This is not faith but presumption. If you are a believer in Christ Jesus and you go ahead to start a business, a home or a career without God’s involvement, you are on your own. This is why the meditation of today says you should trust God and not depend on your limited understanding. Even when Jesus appears to be asleep in your boat, as long as He is in your boat, He is still in control.
Hence PSALM 121:4 says, “Behold, He that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.”
Is God silent over your situation? Does it appear that He is unaware of what you are going through? Do you feel abandoned by God or even doubt whether He really loves you? Friend, be comforted! God still loves. He cares so much for you [1 PETER 5:7]. He empathises with you in that present situation you are faced with, and He will surely make a way for you.
Dearly beloved, in spite of how you feel, God is still in control. In spite of how distant God appears to be, God is right in the middle of your situation to bring you out [MATTHEW 8:23-27; PSALM 37:3-5]. It does not matter what is happening around you, the Lord is in control. Very soon, you will testify of His intervention.
Dearly beloveth, any faith you exercise that is full of hope and great expectations but puts Jesus Christ at the back burner is presumption and not faith.
Remain firmly rooted in Christ Jesus blessed, saved, safe, redeemed, sanctified and always rapturable in Jesus name Amen Shalom.
ENJOY A BLESSED, GLORIOUS AND FRUITFUL WEEK IN JESUS NAME
Thank You Jesus,
Salvation Prayers
If you don’t Know Jesus as your personal Lord and Saviour and would like to accept him into your life as your personal Lord and Saviour, Please say this prayer:
Father, I know that I have broken your laws and my sins have separated me from You. I am truly sorry, and now I want to turn away from my past sinful life toward You. Please forgive me, and help me avoid sinning again. I believe that Your son, Jesus Christ died for my sins, was resurrected from the dead, is alive, and hears my prayer. I invite Jesus to become the Lord of my life, to rule and reign in my heart from this day forward. Please send Your Holy Spirit to help me obey You, and to do Your Will for the rest of my life. In Jesus’ name I pray, Amen.
