Wonder Working Jesus | Walking on Water

This sermon from New Point Church explores the biblical story of Peter walking on water as a powerful metaphor for faith in action. The speaker reflects on how Peter's decision to step out of the boat—despite fear and uncertainty—demonstrates true faith, which is not the absence of fear but a deliberate choice to follow Jesus even when it's uncomfortable. The sermon contrasts the safety of the boat (symbolizing comfort, control, and predictability) with the risk and vulnerability of stepping into God's calling. Through stories of real people like Mike and Dina Van Holt, who moved to China in faith, and the speaker’s own journey to become a foster parent, the message emphasizes that ordinary people can do extraordinary things when they trust God. The sermon also highlights that even when we falter—like Peter sinking when he focused on the storm—Jesus is always ready to rescue us. The key takeaway is that faith is not about perfection but willingness: God doesn’t call the qualified, He qualifies the called. The message concludes with a challenge to identify our personal 'boats' and take one small step of faith, trusting that Jesus is faithful and will meet us wherever He calls us.
