As Holy Spirit filled believers, Jesus has given us the ability to see, and do things beyond the natural realm. He has given us discernment from heaven's perspective. We should be able to perceive what the Lord is doing and then release it on this earth, whether it is preaching, a prophetic word, a word of knowledge, healing or one of the other gifts of the Holy Spirit. We have been given these unique gifts to be able to tune into the frequencies of heaven and discern the voice of God.
We cannot access this place with our natural minds or imaginations because we are limited with our mortal bodies, but the supernatural realm could only be obtained through a personal relationship with Jesus and knowing the Holy Spirit. We are called to transform lives, shift atmospheres, and occupy the land. Some of you fear the supernatural realm, and some don’t believe that you are worthy to receive such marvelous encounters, and sadly, some don’t believe it at all.
It’s time to step up to the next level in our faith. Everyone wants to walk on water, but no one wants to get out of the boat. The Lord is calling us out of the natural realm into the supernatural realm. We are all familiar with the story in the book of Matthew about Jesus walking on the water. As the disciples were in a boat in the middle of the sea, high waves and a tempestuous wind arose causing great turbulence.
Jesus came to them walking on the water. When they had seen Him, they greatly feared thinking that He was a ghost. Immediately Jesus said “Be of good cheer. It is I, do not be afraid.” Peter replied, “Lord if it is You, bid me to come to You, walking on the water.” Jesus said, come. Peter began to walk on the water until he put his focus on the raging wind and waves. He then sank calling on Jesus to save him.
Why would Peter ask this if he knew in the natural it was impossible? It was because his faith rose when he saw Jesus doing it. When Jesus and Peter got in the boat, the wind ceased. Those who were in the boat began to worship Jesus saying to Him, “Truly, You are the Son of God.” Jesus walked on the water supernaturally, and Peter tried by faith and failed. Most of us want to walk in the supernatural realm and we think it’s simple. But when the tumultuous winds and waves come, we can’t handle it.
In the natural it is impossible to walk on water, but because Jesus invited Peter, he would have been able to do so if he didn’t look at the conditions in the natural. When the Lord allows us to do something, He will back it up. Some of you have taken your eyes off Jesus, therefore you are not walking in the promises that He has provided for you. We are living in a time when Jesus is inviting us into supernatural encounters. Jesus will prove His undeniable power on your behalf as you submit to Him.
The gifts of the Holy Spirit are going to be so evident in the coming days. Some of you will sense the presence of God as you are reading this to confirm His word. Some of you will receive the gift of discerning of spirits. Your spiritual senses will be activated as you begin to discern spiritual atmospheres around you. Some of you will be reading the Word of God and you will instantly receive revelation from the Holy Spirit. His Word will soon become alive to you, and He will give you the desires of your heart.
Some will be praying and as you wait on The Lord, He will answer. Many of you are going to become tuned to His voice throughout the day. You will recognize when He’s speaking and be able to understand His ways. You will know the authority that He has entrusted to you as you are seated with Christ in heavenly places. You will be able to discern His voice from your own thoughts, motives, and intentions. The LORD is inviting you to come and walk on the water with Him. Do not fear but only believe.
Matthew 14:29-33 “So He said, “Come.” And when Peter had come down out of the boat, he walked on the water to go to Jesus. But when he saw that the wind was boisterous, he was afraid; and beginning to sink he cried out, saying, “Lord, save me!” And immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and caught him, and said to him, “O you of little faith, why did you doubt?” And when they got into the boat, the wind ceased. Then those who were in the boat came and worshiped Him, saying, “Truly You are the Son of God.”
John 14:12 Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father.
1 Corinthians 2:14 “But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.”
