Our collection of Jesus walking on water paintings showcase several different, breathtaking depictions of this miraculous event, offering a daily reminder of Christ’s love and strength.

The Biblical Meaning Behind Jesus Walking on Water
The miracle of Jesus walking on water occurred when His disciples were caught in a storm on the Sea of Galilee. As the waves crashed and fear gripped them, Jesus appeared, walking toward their boat on the water. When Peter stepped out in faith to walk toward Jesus, he began to sink as doubt crept in. Christ then reached out, saving Peter and calming the storm (Matthew 14:22-33).
This event teaches us about faith in the face of fear and the importance of keeping our eyes on Christ. It reassures us that Jesus has power over nature and can calm the storms in our lives.
