Is there something God has asked you to do, but fear keeps holding you back?
Maybe you’ve been working hard and seeing nothing come of it. Maybe staying comfortable feels safer than following where God is calling you. And there will always be other voices telling you it isn’t worth the risk.
Peter knew that feeling. He had fished all night and caught nothing. But when Jesus said, “Put out into deep water,” Peter obeyed, and his life was never the same.
In week 2 of our series “This Is a House of…”, Pastor Chris Baldwin takes us through Luke 5 and Matthew 14 to show you how to take your next step with courage:
Know what God said
Choose calling over comfort
Remember His faithfulness
Choose faith over fear
God doesn’t need your strength. He wants your weakness so He can use it in His hands. When you stop depending on yourself, you find out He has been faithful all along, and that what’s ahead is bigger than you imagined.
This is a house of faith. We choose faith over fear.
Scripture: Luke 5:1-11 | Matthew 14:25-32 | Romans 5:8
Two people can face the same circumstances and see two completely different futures. The difference isn’t what’s in front of them. It’s the lens they’re looking through.
