Matthew 8:23-27
A fierce storm had brewed causing the waves to cover the boat. The disciples were over-come they cried out to Jesus”Lord save us, we are perishing.” Yes, Christians we are perishing is it because as Jesus said to them ” why are you fearful, O you of little faith? Is it because many Christians have little faith or lost their faith? Do Christians still believe the power of God? Have Christians forgotten who they can cry out to?
Jesus arose and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm. The wind and the waves were obedient. Perhaps, if there were more Christians who were faithful and obedient to the word of God the stormy waters in the world today would become a great calm. “O you of little faith, cry out, Jesus save us we are perishing.”
“Faith believes, demonstrates obedience, gives assurance,provides hope, breaks down strongholds, builds relationships,and leads to a better world.”
Prayer
Father, save us we are perishing, we need Jesus, to calm the the stormy waters. Father, restore and strengthen our faith, give us an obedient spirit. Amen
“Who is like you, Lord God Almighty? You, Lord, and your faithfulness surrounds you. You rule over the surging sea; when waves mount up, you still them. ” Psalm 89: 8-9 NIV
Peace,Joy,and Love
