John 6:16-21 ~ do not be afraid



Matins (during the night, at about 2 a.m.); also called Vigil

John 6:16-21



16 When evening came, his disciples went down to the sea, 17 got into a boat, and started across the sea to Capernaum. It was now dark, and Jesus had not yet come to them. 18 The sea became rough because a strong wind was blowing.

19 When they had rowed about three or four miles, they saw Jesus walking on the sea and coming near the boat, and they were frightened.

20 But he said to them, “It is I; do not be afraid.”

1 Then they were glad to take him into the boat, 
and immediately the boat was at the land to which they were going.


We all need to get out from our troubles. Take a walk. Change direction. Worry less.

Matthew 14:22-36; Mark 6:45-56; John 6:16-24 all tell us about Jesus walking on water.

Jesus, was of course, having Trouble. This time, Jesus didn't want to be made King. Just like Psalm Sunday. So the problem was excessive praise for healing the sick and feeding the thousands. When we think about people - we know this reaction would be exactly right. Jesus, being God, wasn't interested in being King. Jesus goals were, and are, to save the entire world.

This walk was still Jesus on God's goals.

Which is perfect for talking about the Language of the Gospels and the Names of Jesus.



If we could sit and ask the Disciples to tell us about this, if we had witnessed this, we might have questions.

  1. How is that possible? I want to do this, so how is this done?
  2. How do the Names of Jesus fit in with the questions?
  3. What were the weather and water conditions?
  4. What does Jesus have that is different than us?
  5. What was the point of this?
  6. What is God saying?
  7. Why did Jesus do this several different times?



To ‘walk on water‘ is a well-known saying, said Poland’s kite surfing pioneer Maciek Kozierski. As one of the world's best kite surfers, he long had a vision of himself walking on water. For Kozierski it was a matter of honor that he accomplish the feat without tricks or any technical assistance.

Together with a team that included six-time Israeli wakeboard champion Lior Eliyahu and photographers Predrag Vuckovic from Serbia and Joerg Mitter from Austria he spent four days on the Sea of Galilee on their project codenamed simply "Miracle".

We spent four full days on the water directly in front of the world-famous church at Capernaum. The plan: Kozierski would use his kite to acclerate to maximum speed, then step off the board and release the kite - and then walk on water. The difficulty: when the wind was strong the waves were too high and when the surface was calm there was not enough wind. The 26-year-old athlete from Warsaw crashed hard into the water at high speed more than 50 times and had to repeat the whole attempt time and time again.

The released kite was once damaged after flying halfway across the sea. On another attempt he missed the photographers in the water and on boats. On the last day he finally accomplished the feat and got the perfect “miracle“ shot: Maciek Kozierski walking on water and in the background is the historic church.

"And we did it without any tricks or smoke and mirrors," he said proudly.

(The team also commented Maciek's time seemed to be a little bit of a miracle, too.)

John 15:7
If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, 
and it will be done for you.




How is that possible?

At this point, everything Jesus did is either true or not. Moses parted the Red Sea with God's Help. 325 years A.D. and all of the Roman Empire changing to Jesus Christ tells us about the reality of faith. Most people know an Honest to God miracle. And we could all say with some comfort, yes, God is God.

Jesus arranged for a huge crowd to find the widow of Nain's son become alive to explain life after death is possible. Making the people who have life after death experiences, feel reasonably assured to speak of this. Jesus explained Easter was possible. So walking on water, would be fairly easy.

Water is H20 1 steam, 2 liquid, 3 solid at freezing. Water replenishes the earth.
Father, Son, Holy Spirit.
Living, dead, Alive.
3 Days

This miracle isn't Jesus version of Vespa, although in John 6, He did bend space and time to arrive immediately. And this would allow the Disciples to see Jesus was being fairly serious. And wasn't John Coffey of the Green Mile with stand clear, shock, clear, shock with healing hands. I'd say Jesus was getting the Disciples the clear idea this wasn't illusion. Imagine being walk or donkey speed of life and "IMMEDIATELY",  John 6,  the boat was on the other side.

Moses had the amazing Sonic Boom of God's Voice, and instead Jesus is WORD OF GOD.
Moses asks God's help to make the waters of the Nile red. Jesus brings people out of the water into Life. Moses had help. Jesus is God.

Jesus is created by the Word of God. Today we call this the Big Bangs of Creation.



How do the Names of Jesus fit in?

John 4, Jesus tells the Samaritan woman He is the Messiah. This is the first person He tells, and He explains to her He is Living Water. Telling us, Jesus takes this seriously. We could look at this, like this: "Hi, my name is John Smith and I work for the Matrix, what do you do?"

Jesus is saying that as the Son of God, the Long Awaited Messiah, He is Living Water.
And in Jesus' world, I'd vote to be part of that. I would love to see Jesus doing any of this any day.

And sometimes, I remind myself to say this because, from time to time, burdens lift, just to reinvite:
Father God, I ask right now in the Name of Jesus to be accepted as your child and look forward to seeing what Angels have longed to see. Please end the Virus and one day we will be in Heaven together. Amen.

Jesus tells us He is Living Water and He walks on Water. Jesus is saying He is lighter than water, Jesus can be steam if He wants to be. How does water change from water to steam. Light.

Jesus is not only Living Water. Jesus is Light of the world. Light of mankind.

The boat immediately arrives at the speed of Light. Scriptures tell us also The Almighty knows the names of all the stars and all the Hosts of Heaven. The Almighty is the creator of All Things. Jesus is saying He is God.

John the Disciple gives us - all -  about Jesus in the beginning of John 1. He was not making up
poetry to tell us what Jesus is. Jesus is the Word of God manifest.


Zechariah 14:8-9
And in that day living waters will flow out of Jerusalem, half of them toward the eastern sea and the other half toward the western sea; it will be in summer as well as in winter.

And the LORD will be king over all the earth; in that day the LORD will be the only one, and His name the only one.


The Alpha and The Omega.

Light of the World. When the Government did studies on Lightning, we found Lightning gets to be amazing shapes as the higher up the Lightning goes. And not only that, - if it is Lightning over Oklahoma, - then Japan registers the movement of the Stratospheres. Which actually showed us, Sun flares are attached to Lightning the way a leg can pull pantyhose. They are part of One. One System. One Light.

Zechariah said something - Amazing to Jesus' cousin.

Luke 1
“And you, my little son,
will be called the prophet of the Most High,
because you will prepare the way for the Lord.
You will tell his people how to find salvation
through forgiveness of their sins.

Because of God’s tender mercy,
the morning light from heaven is about to visit us
,

to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death,
and to guide us to the path of peace.”


John the Disciple HINTED at this by explaining if we took all the books in Libraries,
we wouldn't touch the Understanding of Jesus. When the Old Testament proclaims, "Hear O Israel, God is One." Being creator of All Things is a Massive amount of - One. It was in our time of history Einstein was the first person to talk about bending Light and time to move the boat to - immediately.





What were the weather and water conditions?
What does Jesus have that is different than us?
What was the point of this?
What is God saying?
Why did Jesus do this several different times?



If we say God is One. I think we pretty well answered if Jesus could see in the dark!

(Wouldn't it be great to hear Jesus explain to our children, "Are we there yet!"

We will get there by being in love with Jesus! Jesus is pretty amazing to figure out what will get the Disciples Astonishment. After He cured the blind man who said men look like trees, Jesus said, "OH
don't EVEN go into the Village. Jesus pretty well understands us!)


Abba, our Father

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms.

For He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless in His presence. In love

As Peter said upon being fished out:

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ!

By His great mercy He has given us new birth into a living hope

through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead

And into an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, reserved in heaven for you!


Thanks Be Unto GOD for allowing us the Freedom to Look to God First.
To Seek His Kingdom Today on this earth
and help us to Live meaningfully in Love, Peace and Joy!

Father God, please kill the virus quickly. Give us Your Strength. 
You are God.

We ask Your Willing Blessings Flow as Living Water for us, Your Beloved.

In Jesus Christ, Our Wonderful Jesus,

Amen.

Biblical readings are chosen from the Ecumenical Christian Church and the Nicene Council, 325 A.D., approved Apocrypha. People remember not just from reading, but by sight and orally- an image has been added as well as audio readings. God tends to link the passages together with fascinates - this blogger, Anne-Laurel Gardere

About Me

My photo
Email registry at bottom.! “All Scripture is inspired by God” (2 Timothy 3:16). Men “moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God” (2 Peter 1:21). The Holy Spirit carried men along, moving and guiding them as they wrote in their own words what God wanted them to say. The Bible is unique; comprised of 80 separate books, & written over a period of thousands of years by more than 40 writers with one Author, spanning the centuries, different states of peace & war & different situations in life. The Bible answers the question: of who is God, who is man & what can their relationship can be. Although the Bible was written on perishable material and copied by hand for many centuries, its accuracy is not in doubt, proven by Dead Sea Scrolls and papyrus from 2,000 years. The Bible has survived persecution & criticism to be read with great interest in each generation. The Bible gives witness to the greatness of the Creator. A loving Father concerned for all of his creation. With each verse of the bible witnessing to God is love and the multitude & vastness of His attributes. The Bible was written for you. <><
