Life can be stress-free and at the same time stressful. Living isn’t awful but not in a world such as this, where lots of pain and hurts reigns within us.Take a look at the aquatic world or the birds in the sky, they seem to be in a different atmosphere, even the astronauts can relate better.
But fulfillment comes by His word. No matter the situation we are in, His love abounds to everyone.
While growing we experience stages in life where some difficulties are mere challenges, which can be struck out effortlessly on our list of challenges… but still on that cruising boat with your sunglasses and a glass of wine, closing out some cool deals as the cool morning breeze swirls by,
not knowing, it was the rising of a turbulent tide meeting you at the middle of the ocean with non on board. Just you alone. And your nerves are rising (which means you are not a good swimmer).As they sailed across basking in the refreshing wind while Jesus was fast asleep on his soft furry pillow unaware of the crisis wrecking the boat.
The seawater splashing at its brim. With fear and trembling of drowning His disciples woke Him, saying, “Master, doesn’t it interest you that we are drowning?”As swiftly as possible He rebuked the wind saying, “Peace, be still!” and there was great tranquility. But then, He said to them “why are you filled with fear? Where is your faith?”
This is a remarkable 🤗🤗story at any time. What strikes me the most in this passage is PEACE. The word PEACE can be seen as a personality, an outcry, as harmony and the list goes on...
What do you identify PEACE to, in that wiry storm?
In a world filled with chaos? What’s your state of mind in that complicated situation?
Your state of mind is proportionate to the actions outplayed around you, and your ability to be calm in-spit of the rage is the attribute of the holy spirit.
Jesus didn’t call that storm by its identity he said PEACE (not storm) BE STILL. You don’t Identify your pains by what they are if you want to defeat them. It triggers fear if you do. Identify your pains with what you want it to be.
If your business is dwindling, speak life "it's rising" and take actions to bounce back. This is so in every field. Your space is not the economic space, yours is different! Dream it!
Jesus asked them “why are you filled with fear? where is your faith?”.
On a battlefield, you conquer your opponent by its weakness and utilize its vulnerability.
Challenges may come in different ways, shape, and kind but are likened to one thing “victory” (as far as your eyes can see. Gen13:14NLT)
Be still and know that He is God. He always shows himself mighty. Even while you are cruising and there is a rising tide, it won’t overwhelm you.
My Ernest prayer is “may affliction never rise the second time”. There is a victory to those who wait upon the Lord with songs of praises and rejoicing on their lips.
