Don’t Overthink It—Just Step Out

Daily Devotional

Don’t Think Now, Take the Road

Sometimes the greatest threat to your faith is overthinking.
Peter didn’t drown because the wind got stronger—he sank because he stopped looking at Jesus.

The wind was real.
The waves were high.
But when Peter only saw Jesus, he walked on what should’ve swallowed him.

Faith begins with recognition—not with understanding.
You’ll never know how the water holds.
You just step because He said, “Come.”

Kingdom Discipleship: A Word from Pastor Kevin

Sons and daughters,
Some of you are stuck because you’re waiting for more information.
You’re weighing the odds. You’re calculating the risk.
But Jesus is still saying: “Come.”

Faith is not logical—it’s relational.
When the Lord speaks, don’t debate—move.
Delay opens the door to doubt. And doubt sinks what faith could’ve walked on.

The safest place in a storm is not the boat.
It’s the presence of Jesus—even if that means walking on water, or standing in something that should’ve taken you under.

Don’t ask Him to explain the waves.
Recognize His voice. Recklessly obey.
You’ll recognize Him more in your risk than you ever will in your reasoning.

REFLECTION QUESTIONS

• Where have I been hesitating, overthinking, or delaying obedience to Jesus?

• What does stepping out in reckless faith look like in my life right now?

• Have I been more focused on the storm around me than the Savior in front of me?
