Living in The Supernatural

Here are a few things about this event:

Shortcut: The disciples were operating in the natural and took the boat. And their route was long and tedious all night journey. Jesus operating in the supernatural, had a shortcut to walk up to and catch up with them.

The Elements: The natural elements had become a hiderance to the disciples, and were attempting to drown them. While Jesus was impervious to the very things that were attempting to drown them.

The Laws of Nature: The boat was operating by a law of nature. The elements was operating by a law of nature. Jesus came and overrode the natural laws because he operated on a higher law. The lesser laws always submits to the higher law, for example The law of aerodynamics overrides the law of gravity and enables a jumbo jet fly.

Stepping out the boat: Peter was in the natural, and saw the supernatural. It was scary yet daring. Unlike the others, he chose to step out of the comfort zone of the natural into the scary unknown of the supernatural.

Follow the word: The word received by Peter was "Come". As long as he was fixated on Jesus, and obeyed that word, he transitioned from the natural and operated in the supernatural. Unfortunately, he took his eyes off Jesus and became more aware of the winds and waves. And that sucked him right back to the natural. 

A recap of the points listed above suggests that we have access into the supernatural by faith. The just is supposed to live by faith. When we live by faith, we operate by the law of the Spirit of Life in Christ Jesus, which is greater than any known law. Jesus, The Resurrection and the Life is operating in us and for us. There is no limitation that can hinder. We defy natural limitations, and experience supernatural shortcuts. The very things attempting to drown us become stepping stones in our supernatural shortcut route. Yet just as easy as it is to receive the Rhema word to access into and operate in the supernatural, so it is easy to fall out of it if we allow what we see, feel, hear and process to become more significant and relevant than the Rhema word received, and staying focused on Jesus.
