In the middle of a storm, who do you turn to?

HE IS THERE FOR US!

“And suddenly a great tempest AROSE on the sea, so that the boat was covered with the waves. … Then HE AROSE and rebuked the winds and the sea, and there was a great calm.”

(Matthew 8;24, 26 -NKJV)

This morning I was so  incredibly blessed by one of Dr David Jeremiah’s devotionals, I simply had to share it with you!   I know that many of my blog readers are going through massive storms of life at this moment in time, and I pray this extract from his book will be a great blessing and help.

“Missionary Amy Carmichael often sent insights to her workers from her own daily devotions. One day she told them how she had been helped by two phrases from Matthew 8: “Then suddenly a great tempest arose … Then He Arose”.  She pointed out that when the storms arise, that’s when Jesus arises to deal with them..

“There are almost always storms,” Amy wrote. “Now and then we have times of quietness – little lulls, I used to call them – but far more often the wind is blowing from one quarter or another, and so there are waves … But that is not the whole story”.

David Jeremiah continues and says:

“No, that’s not the whole story!
Storms and the waves are a part of life; they arise.
But our Lord also arises to deal with them, to help us, to protect and navigate us, to accompany us, to work on our behalf, and to turn the storms into streams of mercy”

If you need further prayer, do not hesitate to request prayer here (totally confidential)

END TIMES & OUR CHRISTIAN RESPONSIBILITIES

Based on a sermon preached by Moses Kistiah
Kindly summarized by Terry Coomer

Trials and troubles are fleeting
Circumstances must not determine our relationship with God.
Daily prayer and reading of God’s Word essential
During our times of affliction we must pray
Ask Him to touch you and heal you.
God paid the price for us on the Cross..don’t ignore it
This world is passing away…
Only Jesus remains 🙏

Read Gospel of Mark 1:1-17
God does not call us when we are ready but in His Perfect time.
Drop all your tools and do what God has called you to!
Be prepared and ready!!!
Follow Jesus and cast away your old life.
Presence of the Lord must be with you 🙏
Disciples dropped everything to follow Christ.
When you are called keep moving like a clock….every hour; every minute; every second!
It’s all about Jesus
Seek and do the will of God!!!
Be Ready to serve at any time.
Forsake not the gathering together of the brethren.
Be ready in season and out of season.
Rapture is imminent
Preach the Truth of God’s Word 🙏
Have your eyes focused on God.
Be a Watchman for Jesus !!!
Watching and praying 🙏
Disasters and natural disasters are on the increase. Rebellion is on the increase in children and schools and no honouring of parents! Destroying families and society.
Train children in the Ways of the Lord.
Encourage one another to be a Light in every place you go and be a witness for Christ.
AMEN
