LOOK TO JESUS AND NOT TO THE PROBLEM #1
PETER´S EXAMPLE

1.INTRODUCTION
The right attitude of faith, in the act of faith, is to look to Jesus and not at the problem.
We must not look at:
– problem;
– the size of the target / challenge
– social and/or financial capacity;
– threats.

We should look to Jesus.
Faith is not ignoring the problem. Faith is, in the midst of adversity and/or challenge, looking to the Word of God/what Jesus says.

2.WHAT TO DO IN THE FACE OF A PROBLEM / CHALLENGE
Faced with a problem ? Faced with a challenge ? Faced with a Target? Faced with stagnation? – Look to Jesus and not at the problem.
We should not be driven by feelings, emotions, pain, etc. – 2 Corinthians 4:18 & 2 Corinthians 5:7

3. PETER’S EXAMPLE
Matthew 14:27-31
Peter managed to walk on water while looking at Jesus.
When he took his eyes off Jesus, he began to sink.
If or when you have a problem, a threat, a financial crisis, the right attitude is not to talk or think about the problem, but to look to Jesus / the Bible.

4. HOW CAN I LOOK TO JESUS
Jesus is not on earth in human / physical form.
To look at Jesus, I have to open the Bible and see the “pictures” / stories in which Jesus healed, multiplied, performed miracles, etc.

Looking at Jesus = looking at Bible verses.
