Episode Synopsis

In a world full of opinions about who Jesus is, Matthew 16 asks the most important question of our lives:“But who do you say that I am?”In this episode of Rise and Shine, Haylee dives deep into Matthew chapter 16 and the powerful moment where Peter declares Jesus as the Christ — not because someone told him, but because God revealed it to him personally.This episode challenges believers to build their faith on Jesus Himself, not on culture, not on hearsay, and not on shallow doctrine. We also look at Jesus’ warning about the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees, and why spiritual discernment matters more than ever.Plus, we connect this passage with Matthew 14, where Peter walks on water — because both chapters show the same truth:✨ Main Message:👉 When you know who Jesus really is, you can stand firm, stay focused, and walk by faith.Why Jesus asks: “Who do YOU say I am?”Why your relationship with Jesus must be personal, not borrowedHow Peter received revelation from God — and how you can tooWhat Jesus meant by “the leaven of the Pharisees and Sadducees”How false doctrine creeps in subtly if we’re not anchored in the WordWhat Peter walking on water teaches us about focus, fear, and faithWhy the enemy attacks your focus to attack your faith📖 Key Scriptures:Matthew 16:13–20 — Peter’s revelation of ChristMatthew 16:5–12 — the warning about leaven (false doctrine)Matthew 14:22–33 — Peter walks on waterTo truly know Jesus, you must seek Him for yourself.
