Go Ahead! Walk on the Water: Devotionals to Strengthen your Faith and Promote Peace While Waiting on God - Paperback

by Sonya Darcell Johnson (Author)

Is it possible to live a faith-based life? Yes. When we learn how to apply the word of God to our practical lives, then we can overcome all challenges. Find out why some believers are so peaceful and happy while in the midst of stormy trials. Go Ahead! Walk on the Water teaches us how to have victorious outcomes from situations that started as defeats. Human effort and divine intervention means victorious lives.

Like the ocean, our lives are always moving. The gentle breeze creates the calm ripples of everyday duties that we easily accomplish. From those completed goals, we gain a sense of satisfaction as we readily embrace our good times of peaceful existence. Out of nowhere, the happiness and tranquility of an all-is-well lifestyle is abruptly cut short by the forceful winds of strife. We find ourselves in the middle of a storm with tsunami-like waves from an unexpected life event. Why did this have to happen now? Though we have overcome many obstacles, we fixate on stormy trials. Believing that our life is out of control, the giant waves of worry, anxiety, and panic take over. Fear of the unknown and limited options cause our faith to decrease, and we develop spiritual disorientation.

Because our fears and doubts escalate, we become blinded by the threatening storms. We cannot see Jesus extending His hands or hear His command to "Go ahead, walk on the water." Faith enables us to listen to His quiet words of comfort, "I am here with you in the midst of the raging storm." God desires that we come to Him as our refuge in the time of trouble. As our relationship grows deeper with God, we will see His excellent plans and hear the voice of the Holy Spirit, guiding us victoriously through the storm.
