John6: 18-21
18A strong wind was blowing, and the water became rough. 19They rowed three or three and a half miles. Then they saw Jesus coming toward the boat. He was walking on the water. They were terrified. 20But he said to them, "It is I. don’t be afraid." 21Then they agreed to take him into the boat. Right away the boat reached the shore where they were heading.

In circumstance when we think it’s impossible to grow the group or even similarly we have our plans we must take note of the following factors.
Only when we allow God to come into the picture then will everything go on well. Notice that when Jesus entered the oat then everything was at rest.
Plans are great, like them who have wanted to cross the river and go back to shore.
Are the plans yours or his?
Many times we have our own plans to grow our group and it’s nothing wrong. But when we planned out a plan, do we ask God to accept it or do we asked him to guide us along planning? Then if we do not allow God to come and guide us doesn’t it mean we are trying to imply a statement to God. “You do it my way, God!”
Allowing God to come in to our plans means that we have to choose to submit to his will and follow his ways. Reason being is so that in order to grow God’s kingdom, it must be done in his way. It brings us to the fact that we must choose to dare to attempt greater things for our Lord. His ways are higher than ours.
Having the ‘Can Do It’ spirit with us because we know that he is with us on the boat.
If you want to walk on water, you got to step out of the boat. Living a life of faith.
