Pastor Jay Makopo – Why Did You Doubt? (CPT)

At FaithPoint Church Cape Town, Pastor Jay Makopo delivers a powerful message titled “Why Did You Doubt?” — a call to rise above fear and anchor your faith in God’s word. From Matthew 14:22–31, we’re reminded that doubt makes us sink, but faith keeps us standing. When Peter took his eyes off Jesus, he began to waver in the very moment designed to reveal God’s power. Peter doubted three things — the situation, the Word, and his ability. Sometimes God places you in a storm to display His glory. When you question His Word, you question His nature. And when you doubt yourself, you forget that He has already equipped you for victory. Return to what God said, believe His Word, and trust the strength He has placed within you. Don’t let doubt drown your destiny. “You of little faith,” He said, “why did you doubt?” – Matthew 14:31 (NIV)
