The Storm Within

The Storm Within

Jesus, weary from a day of teaching and ministering, went aboard Peter’s boat to sleep while he and the rest of the disciples made preparations to sail to the other side of the sea. However, a great storm was on the sea that night and the boat began taking on water by the bucketful. Frighted Peter woke Jesus up and as Jesus spoke, the wind and waves became silent. When they finally arrived at the shore of the Gerasenes, a broken, bloody, and demon-possessed man ran to Jesus. Not even a legion of demons could stand against God’s power as Jesus set this man free!

Matthew 8:26
In our last episode, we heard Jesus’ teachings about the things of heaven, God’s mercy, and the incomparable value of the Kingdom of God. The disciples marveled at their master’s words of wisdom and insight, hungry for more understanding of the things of God. Today we’ll see Jesus, once more with only His words, rebukes the seas and waves, bringing calm and safety into a place of fear and despair. We’ll see the same power over the waves demonstrated against the evil spirits that held a man captive, as Jesus calls out demons who shudder at the sound of His voice.
