“… God is Not in the Business … 

… Of Making Us ‘Feel’ Safe … 

… Nor … 

… Providing Us with A ‘Safety Net’ … 

… A Secure … Short-Term Circumstance or Provision … 

… Not When He Has Us …

… Take A HUGE STEP!!! …

… Out In Faith …”



… I once wrote, in my Second Book, Enoch’s Journey: Seven Steps to ‘Was Not’, as a paraphrase of Hebrews 11:1 (EAJ Version) …

“Now Faith is gleefully stepping into the unknown, without regard for your personal safety or security. Because God Said …”

… Meaning … when God tells you to take a HUGE step out in Faith … particularly after you have been Seeking & Praying about what He Led you to Pray About long ago …

… God does not often supply the desired … corresponding … seemingly necessary … Safety Net …


… As a matter of fact … When you do take that HUGE STEP OUT on the Tumultuous Waters of Faith …



… Situations & Circumstances in the Short Term … Will start to look more bleak …


… The Winds on those Faith Waters … Will Most Likely … Become More Boisterous … Making the Seas of Faith that you are Walking On look like you are about to Drown …

… But … Since It Was God Who Told You To Step & Walk out there by Faith …

… Just as when Peter started Sinking … 

… God will be along to Pull You UP & Pull You THROUGH …


… Peter stepped down from the boat and did walk on the water, making for Jesus … 

…But when he saw the fury of the wind he panicked and began to sink calling out, …

… “Lord save me!” … 

… At once Jesus reached out his hand and caught him … 

(Matthew 14:29-31, Phillips)
