Podcasts about Walking on water

When Jesus calls you to step out in faith, it doesn't mean the journey will be storm-free. Yet, many believers are surprised when challenges arise. We often mistakenly assume that God's will equals smooth sailing. Instead, it's about having the assurance of victory over life's storms. Jesus reminds us that trials will come, but we can be of good cheer because He has overcome the world. His presence guarantees our ultimate triumph, not the absence of challenges.

John 6:16-24 - walking on water - George Tice by Christ City Church Dublin

There's a big difference between knowing God intellectually, and knowing Him personally. And when your life gets truly out of control, you need more than facts—you need a personal relationship with God. Pastor John Munro teaches how important the presence of Jesus is, especially in the middle of life's storms.

When life seems dark or trouble seems to be looming, it's natural to look for a way out, a way of escape. But Pastor John Munro reminds us that followers of Christ can weather any storm—even though we may forget or falter.  Find and follow the guiding light of Jesus in the middle of life's storms!

Zedd makes his way into The Ovens, ready to throw his life at the Chimes, but all we know his sacrifice achieved is kicking Richard in the magical nuts, setting off the Dominie Dirtch, and leaving one very special horse, very lonely...

In the biblical account from the Gospel of Matthew (14:22-33), Jesus walks on water to reach his disciples in a boat on the Sea of Galilee during a storm, a miracle signifying his divine authority. The disciples initially mistake him for a ghost, but he reassures them, and Peter even briefly walks on the water before his faith falters and Jesus rescues him. The story highlights themes of faith, fear, and Jesus's compassionate power.

What do you do when the storm hits? When the waves rise, the wind howls, and fear takes over—where is your faith anchored? In John 6:16-21 and Matthew 14:22–33, Jesus comes to His disciples in the middle of the storm, walking on the water. What terrified them at first became the very moment that revealed His power and presence. Peter dared to step out of the boat—but started to sink when his eyes drifted from Jesus. Sound familiar? How often do we start in faith but get overwhelmed by fear, doubt, or distraction? This story isn't just about Jesus calming the storm—it's about Him calling us to trust Him in the storm. Join us as we explore what it means to fix our eyes on Jesus when life feels out of control, and discover the truth that changes everything: You may feel like you're sinking—but Jesus is still walking on the water.

Pastor Jarrod Walls delivers a powerful message about finding God's presence and purpose in the midst of life's storms. Drawing from Matthew 14:22-33 and 1 Peter 4:12-13, he explores how hardship isn't something to be surprised by, but rather an opportunity for spiritual growth and deeper intimacy with Christ.In this sermon, Pastor Jarrod shares practical insights about different types of people who face storms - from the perpetually surprised to the prepared "Boy Scout" types - and encourages believers to become like the "old farmer" who remains calm because he knows who commands the storm. Using the familiar story of Jesus walking on water, he reveals how God sometimes sends us into difficult situations not to harm us, but to show us His glory and build our faith.

John 6:16-24

In this Bible Story, Jesus feeds five thousand people with just five loaves of bread and two fish. The crowds want him to be made king, so Jesus departs before the crowd becomes violent. The disciples depart on a boat while Jesus stays on shore to pray. Then, in power and glory, Jesus walks on water to return with his disciples. This story is inspired by John 6:1-10, Matthew 14:14-33. Go to BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year.Today's Bible verse is Matthew 14:29 from the King James Version.Episode 193: As Jesus resumed his teaching around the shores of Galilee, the crowd around Him grew to swelling numbers. After teaching them all day, He had them sit for a meal. Though there were only two small fish and five round loaves of bread, Jesus showed the crowd that He has the power to provide for their needs. He multiplied the food to feed over five-thousand people! After this, the crowd became frenzied and Jesus sent His disciples ahead of Him on the sea while He escaped to pray. As the disciples were on the sea in the late of night, Jesus appeared walking on the water next to them. And though they were frightened they got a first-hand glimpse at what faith in Jesus can do.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.

Dallas Willard asks, "How many people are radically and permanently repelled from The Way by Christians who are unfeeling, stiff, unapproachable, boringly lifeless, obsessive, and dissatisfied? Yet such Christians are everywhere . . ." bearing not the slightest resemblance to Jesus.  This sermon explores the spectrum of simple to profound enjoyments Jesus knew in His life and ministry, and suggests that Jesus is not the problem, but the solution to the problem as we make Him the leader of our emotional lives.

What's the point of my “low points”? Looking back over a life of legacy, Peter counted more than a few low points. They would not define him—at least, the "low" part wouldn't. Life's low points can be defining, but with God, we get to write the definition. Peter's final chapter shows us how, and it's a great finish to the "Peter Process." Live Fully!

Matthew 14 EMBRACEEVV.COM

What does it look like to confidently share our faith? Most of us wish we could. The problem is, we don't always know how. Over the course of this series, we've been taking lessons from the life of Peter. For the most part, he's been a pretty relatable guy: impulsive, outspoken, and frequently in the wrong! But this week we meet Peter on the other side of his failures, and find a totally changed man... one who is remarkably confident. Peter teaches us what it looks like to confidently share our faith, in ways that are both loving and authentic. In this message, we talked about a thoughtful approach to evangelism in the secular world.  First time listening to our podcast?

Matthew 14:22-33

We love a comeback story, but we often forget that their story—our story—begins with pain, failure, and a step (or many) back. Peter's story turns on his worst moment, preserved for all of history to see. Like a wreck on the side of the road, it's hard to look away. Then comes the comeback: glorious, redemptive, and satisfying. There are good, life-giving lessons here. If a comeback story sounds appealing to you, this weekend is for you.

Fear isn't something to ignore—it's something to confront, prepare for, and reframe. Peter's bold step out of the boat wasn't foolish—it was faithful. But the moment he took his eyes off Jesus and focused on the storm, he began to sink. Through this powerful moment in Scripture, we're learning three truths: fear will sink you, fear thrives when we lose focus, and we win the battle over fear when we shift our “what ifs” into “even ifs.” No matter what storm you're facing today, Jesus is near—and He's ready to catch you.

Have you ever wondered why God allows storms in your life, and how you can actually grow stronger through them? In this powerful message, we dive deep into the incredible story of Jesus walking on water during a fierce storm and discover what it reveals about Christian maturity and growing in God. You'll learn how trials and tribulations aren't obstacles to your faith journey, but actually opportunities to demonstrate spiritual maturity and impact for God in ways you never imagined. We explore why Peter was the only disciple bold enough to step out of the boat, walking on water in the midst of a storm, and what this teaches us about moving from spiritual infancy to maturity in the Lord. Through practical insights from Matthew 14 and James 1, you'll discover how to let your light shine brightest when life gets darkest, inviting others into a deeper relationship with God through your example. Growing in the Lord means learning to trust Him completely, even when the waves are crashing and the wind is against you. This message will challenge you to step out of your comfort zone and experience the supernatural peace that comes from walking with Jesus through every storm.

Peter is popular, and we love him. Why? We can relate to him, we resonate with his failings, we love a comeback story, and who doesn't love an outspoken friend! Peter was undoubtedly outspoken. He often asked the question everyone was thinking but was afraid to voice. Sometimes this made him the hero, and sometimes it got him in trouble. Either way, there is a lesson to be learned. This weekend, we looked at Peter's most outspoken moment and found inspiration as we hear him ask the same questions we're all asking.   First time listening to our podcast?

6th Sunday after PentecostScripture Lesson: Matthew 14:22-33

The education of Peter shows up in a two-question test. Sounds easy, right? The problem with a two-question test… there's room for error. Thankfully, in this story, there is a retake… with some private tutoring… that's how we see it. Your view of Jesus transforms how you worship, pray, and think about your day-to-day life.

This weekend, we continue in the Peter Process with a famous and formative moment in Peter's early life: a walk on the water. We all have formative moments, both good and bad. They have become part of our story and how we became who we are. Do you remember any formative moments in your life?  It could be an event, an interaction, a success, a season, or a struggle that is etched in your memory. As you think about them, look at how God might still be using them to write your story.   First time listening to our podcast?

FRUIT LOOPS This week is a review of our mini-series of Walking on Water as a prophecy of the Greater Exodus. Walking on Water has been a mini-series full of encouragement and hope. It grew from this verse in the Song of Songs: "Awake, O north wind, And come, wind of the south; Make my garden breathe out fragrance, Let its spices be wafted abroad. May my beloved come into his garden And eat its choice fruits!” (4:16) To wrap up our series, let's review some key points. First, the walk through the Reed Sea is connected to the separation and gathering of waters at the Creation in Genesis One as well as the Tree of Life and the River of Life in Revelation. That's quite a swim, so Baruch HaShem we can walk on water! What those Creation and Revelation bookends have in common is fruit trees along the water. This fruit symbolism appears in natural cycles, which reflect fruit cycles in their spiritual cycles. The natural world is merely the parable of the spiritual world, but by studying the creation, we can see the spiritual fruit cycles to which we will be in perfect tune in the millennial kingdom of Yeshua. This is one reason it is so important to study and practice the feasts of Scripture, which are themed around agricultural themes. Israel works the fields to produce natural fruits which are offered as tithes, firstfruits, and offerings. The natural is elevated to the spiritual realm where it is perfected, just as those resurrected from the dead will be planted mortal, yet raised immortal, fully equipped to function in either the natural or spiritual world. The feasts of Adonai loop year after year, offering believers an opportunity to be nourished by His fruit loops. No artificial dyes, added sugar, or whatever else it is that makes Froot Loops bad for you. This is fruit for those entering the Kingdom as little children, needing nourishment for maturity when they emerge from the water: Bahya writes. When they were walking in the sea and their children cried, the mother took an apple or a pomegranate and gave it to the child. There were apple trees and other fruit in the sea. The Holy One made them grow quickly and had fruits in the sea. *Bahya, Exodus, 14:22. [Tze'enah Ure'enah, Beshalach] *The Bahya text is a reference to Midrash Rabbah to Shemot 21§10 (Exodus 14:21-22) The trip over the water-and-earth-bridge of the sea provided a taste of Eden. Not a complete transition to the Garden, but a brief experience, like their everwear clothes and sandals, food, and water. What did the water bridge provide? It lifted their feet from the natural earth, supplying a cushion of purifying water for the swift journey. Things that ascend to the Garden in a physical body must pass through fire or water to purify them for holy use. “You shall be holy, for I am holy.” If we sanctify ourselves on earth, Adonai sanctifies and perfects us in heaven. It is our duty, and it allows the world to be enticed by our odor of holiness instead of despairing that a holy walk is impossible or not even a fruitful one. We die to the sin slavery of the natural body, yet we live according the resurrection spirit of Yeshua. We have available the washing of water by the Word. This might explain Yeshua's washing of the disciples' feet...they would experience the supernatural, like Philip's rapid translation after he witnessed to the Ethiopian.  Our immersion in the water of the Word in the Torah cycles and feasts is like walking in Fruit Loops. As the mothers of Israel took fruits from the walls of water in the Reed Sea on the journey, so we enjoy the fruits of the Ruach when we enter the Kingdom as a little child. As we mature, we also bear fruit to give to others who are maturing by the River of Life, for we are a part of the Tree of Life. The crossing of the Reed Sea recalled the Creation, yet according to the Song of the Sea,

Mark 6:45-56

Pastor Tim Greeno continues our study in the Gospel of John. Listen as Tim explains the great lesson behind Jesus walking on the water.

Water in The Rock, or The Rock in the Water? This newletter is lengthy, so let it serve for two Shabbats. There will be no newsletter next week due to visiting Jacob's Tent services Up to the Mountain. In the last several newsletters, we've taken a close look at the many prophecies embodied in Yeshua's walk on the water of the Galilee in Matthew Fourteen. How different was Yeshua's perception of the walk than Peter and the other disciples'! For the one who was the water in the Rock…and the Rock…in the wilderness for the Israelites, it was no problem to also be the Rock in the water to his students. “He alone spreads out the heavens and treads on the waves of the sea…” (Job 9:8) Sometimes it helps to put the Gospel of Matthew back into its original Hebrew text. While no one is certain of where that text might be (only fragments are known to survive), there is a version whose provenance can only be traced so far back in Jewish history, yet it is quite accurate considering it was used by a less-than-friendly readership. It is the Shem Tov's Evan Bohan version from the Fourteenth Century. The differences between the Hebrew and Greek texts are not drastic. To Yeshua, the stroll on the Galilee during the storm was perceived much differently than his students, who perceived it as dangerous, chaotic, and "contrary." In the Hebrew Matthew version, the word for contrary is neged, or opposing, opposite. Neged has a good side, too, for Adam's wife Chavah was his ezer kenegdo, or “helper opposite him,” which brings balance. When opposition is a helper, it is because in spite of the opposition, the overall purpose is to achieve unity walking in the Word. The opposite helper pulls the weight of the yoke beside the other, ensuring the burden does not get dragged in endless circles, but can go straight. For example, grace and truth are not opposed to one another. One cannot be practiced at the expense of the other. In Yeshua, they work together. Sarah wasn't such a good helper when she suggested Hagar as a solution to their problem, but she was a good helper when she advised Abraham to send away Ishmael, who had not internalized the righteousness of his father and threatened the inheritance of Isaac. The disciples did not see the waves of the storm as their ezer kenegdo, or helping opposition, but as a destructive force. They were just rowing in circles in the middle of the Galilee, taking on water. Galilee does indeed imply circles in Hebrew, like a roll or spool, and a wave is a gal, pronounced gahl (not to be confused with other gals). This is perhaps what it has in common with the “circle of the earth,” and why from Isaiah's prophecy, Galilee came to be called “Galilee of the Nations.” In Jewish tradition, Moses hid the Rock that followed them in the wilderness in the bottom of the Galilee before he died, which explains why Yeshua would have made his early home near the Galilee and begun his ministry there. The Rock was both the water in the Rock, the Rock, and the Rock in the water. It also explains how Yeshua's ministry prepared the way for the nations to hear the Gospel message from his disciples: “But there will be no more gloom for her who was in anguish; in earlier times He treated the land of Zebulun and the land of Naphtali with contempt, but later on He shall make it glorious, by the way of the sea, on the other side of Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles. The people who walk in darkness will see a great light; those who live in a dark land, the light will shine on them.” (Is 9:1-2) As the region of the Galilee represented the Gentile nations in the time from Isaiah to Yeshua's ministry, so the disciples were dispersed to proclaim the Light of the Word Yeshua to the scattered of Israel as well as the Gentiles who dwelled among the raging waves of tormenting wickedness. Even as we are rescued, we are tested of the Ruach HaKodesh, the Holy Spirit,

Dr. Nate Magloughlin - Mark 6:45-52

Is it something in the water? "Count time! On your feet!" When I worked at the federal prison, there was a particular officer with a funny voice, kind of like the drill sergeants at boot camp. It could penetrate cinder block walls, mainly because it had to. The best I can describe it is 50% drill sergeant, 35% smoker's throat, and 15% helium. When it was time for a "standing count," inmates were required to stand up for the count. It made it easier for the officer to obtain an accurate count, and more importantly, the officer was sure the prisoner 1) was still alive and well, and 2) really there; it wasn't just a lump of pillows under a blanket When I worked with this officer, he called out in that boot camp voice, "Count time! On your feet!" You couldn't not hear it. He said more colorful things than "Count time!" when inmates or staff caused him problems, but those are best not repeated. We are quickly approaching Shavuot, the end of "Count time! On your feet!" The harvest time between Pesach and Shavuot is extremely busy agriculturally, but it only get BUSIER between Shavuot and the fall feasts of ingathering. If we're struggling to stand, much less walk right now, we might need a fainting couch when the relentless summer heat hits. Yeshua told the following parable: "Other seed fell on rocky soil, and as soon as it grew up, it withered away, because it had no moisture. Other seed fell among the thorns; and the thorns grew up with it and choked it out. Other seed fell into the good soil, and grew up, and produced a crop a hundred times as great.”...“Now the parable is this: the seed is the word of God... Those on the rocky soil are those who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no firm root; they believe for a while, and in time of temptation fall away. The seed which fell among the thorns, these are the ones who have heard, and as they go on their way they are choked with worries and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to maturity. But the seed in the good soil, these are the ones who have heard the word in an honest and good heart, and hold it fast, and bear fruit with perseverance." (Lk 8:7-15) The "fresh" Word does wonders in our lives. It makes for a fun Passover when we've renewed the joy of our salvation each year. A week or two into the count, though, the seed of the Word is in mortal danger. Seed is the promise of life, yet when the soil isn't prepared, protected, nurtured, and watered, the fruit that could have matured in that field dies in the early stages. As the omer count goes on, it's harder to stand and be counted. A temptation comes, perhaps a "stones-to-bread" twisting shortcut of what the Word actually means, or the consequences of throwing one's self off a height of risky behavior, hoping an angel will catch us, or even a brush with idolatry: greed, rebellion, sexual immorality, etc. Others will be choked by worries, busy-ness thorns that choke off the nourishment times of studying the Word needed to put down deep roots and to choke out the thorns instead. But the Lord answered and said to her, “Martha, Martha, you are worried and bothered about so many things; but only one thing is necessary, for Mary has chosen the good part, which shall not be taken away from her.” (Lk 10:41-42) Our busy days will be weighed in the balances of the Kingdom when we enter, and imagine how much of it will be taken away as we cross the threshhold to the Garden. And imagine what will not be taken away. Any time invested in the Word of the Father will remain, and in that Kingdom, it will continue to bear eternal fruit, especially if we've grown and pulled that fruit from the bitter waters of a test. There's something in the water during count time. What is it? While walking through, under, on, and between water of the Reed Sea might feel miraculous and spectacul...

Peace in the Pieces: Finding True Peace in Every Area of Our Lives In this sermon, we look at the story of Peter walking on water and what it teaches us about anxiety, surrender, and spiritual peace. Even in the chaos of the storm, Jesus invites us to trust Him. Walk away with a better understanding of: 1. Obedience doesn't exempt us from storms—sometimes it leads us straight into them. 2. Peace isn't found in perfect conditions—it's found in the presence of Jesus. 3. Fear thrives in the “what ifs,” but peace comes from meditating on what is. 4. Distraction, not disaster, is often what takes us down. 5. Surrender doesn't mean you've failed—it means you've given it to the only One who can carry it. Key Scripture: Matthew 14:22 (https://www.bible.com/bible/111/MAT.14.22) This message unpacks how peace isn't about perfect conditions but about Jesus stepping into the boat with us. Whether you're in a storm, coming out of one, or about to walk into one, you'll find encouragement and hope to keep your focus on Christ.

Jarek Berga - May 25th 2025 When self-effort sinks, grace takes hold.As we continue our series The King & His Kingdom through the Gospel of Matthew, we come to Matthew 14:22–33—where the disciples are caught in a storm, rowing through the night, and Peter steps out of the boat, only to lose confidence and begin to sink. This sermon explores what it means to follow Jesus through exhaustion, fear, doubt, and weakness—and what happens when we realize we can't make it on our own. The good news? Jesus still reaches out. He still saves. He's still Lord over the chaos.

Episode SummaryIn this very special episode, Bobby Bosler shares an exciting announcement and a deeply personal journey of faith. Speaking from Matthew 14, he draws parallels between Peter's step out of the boat and the major life change God has led him and his family into — accepting the call to pastor Fellowship Baptist Church in Fairmont, West Virginia. Bobby testifies to God's guidance through uncertainty, showing how surrender and obedience open the door for God's miraculous provision and peace.Topics DiscussedStepping out in faith when God's leading feels impossibleThe story behind the call to pastor Fellowship Baptist ChurchHow God uses closed doors and lack of peace to redirect our stepsWrestling with calling, gifting, and identity in ministryEncouragement to follow God's call even when it requires major life changesKey TakeawaysGod's leading often requires taking a step into the impossible. Like Peter walking on water, faith demands stepping out based on God's command, not on visible certainty.Closed doors are part of God's guidance. The lack of peace about repairing or replacing the trailer was God's way of preparing the Bosler family for a completely new direction.Gifting doesn't limit God's calling. Even as an evangelist, Bobby discovered that God could use him to pastor and shepherd a local church, showing that God's calling often stretches us beyond our assumptions.Obedience leads to peace. When Bobby and his wife yielded to the possibility of pastoring, God flooded their hearts with undeniable peace and clarity.A big step of faith inspires others. Just like Peter's step inspired worship in the boat, your obedience can ripple out to encourage others to trust and follow Christ.
