Today we are goin to look at one of the most dramatic examples of faith in the New Testament: Peter's walking on water in Matthew 14.

 

I want to talk today about our faith in God.

 

And without faith it is impossible to please God, because anyone who comes to him must believe that he exists and that he rewards those who earnestly seek him. 

Hebrews 11:6

​

Faith is the very core of our relationship to the Lord. In fact, there are four times in the Bible when our relationship to God is reduced to a six-word formula. It says, “The righteous shall live by faith.”

 

And our faith, if it is to be accepted, has to involve these same ingredients.

​

“Lord, if it’s you,” Peter replied, “tell me to come to you on the water.”

 “Come,” he said.  

Matthew 14:28-29
