Dare To Dream

Lakewood August 15, 2010

Marcos Witt

"I dare you to walk on the water"

Matthew 14:25-29

"If Peter lived in 2010, he'd be a Texan!"

"Dare to dream it."
Peter saw Jesus do it and thought that he could do it too!
If you could dream then you can do it.

E.g. Martin Luther King Jr. & Joel Osteen

When you stand up in the boat, it's going to make people nervous because things are going to start shaking.
John: the beloved...Probably thinking why does he think he gets to do the special thing, I'm the special one. But in response, you say you deserve to dream and do special things too, even if you aren't KNOWN as the "special one".
Matthew:
Judas: Treasury...Probably thinking, one less person= one less person to support financially. Sometimes people will cheer you on for the wrong reason. But it doesn't matter why they are cheering, you go out there and get it done.

"Dare to Ask"
James 4:2...have not because you ask not...
Matthew 7:7...ask for what you need..

"Dare to Risk It"
2 Corinthians 5:7...
It's NOT just the thought that counts when God speaks.
Don't just sit there and row in a boat:
Self-Pity
Excuses
Low Self- Esteem
Bad Attitude
Whining
