Finding hope In the storm of life

As we journey through life, we will inevitably encounter storms that can shake our faith and cause anxiety. Today's passages remind us that even in the midst of a crisis, we can cry out to our Savior, and He will hear us and provide comfort.

In Mark 4:35, we find Jesus and His disciples traveling across the sea. As they venture out, the Scripture tells us, "On the same day, when evening had come, He said to them, 'Let us cross over to the other side.'" Little did the disciples know that they would soon face a great storm that threatened their very lives. Yet, Jesus was with them, and He would be their refuge in their time of need.
In Matthew 10:29-31, Jesus reminds us of God's care for even the smallest of creatures, saying, "Are not two sparrows sold for a copper coin? And not one of them falls to the ground apart from your Father's will... Do not fear therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows." This passage encourages us to remember God's love for us and His desire to provide for us, even in our darkest moments.
From these verses, we can learn several principles to help us cry out to God in a crisis:
1. God is with us in the storm: No matter what challenges we face, we can be confident that He is with us and will not abandon us.

2. God values us deeply: Jesus' words in Matthew 10:29-31 remind us that we are treasured by God and that He is attentive to our needs.
3. We can cry out to God in our time of need: When waves of anxiety crash over us, we can turn to our loving Father in heaven and pour out our hearts to Him, relying on His comfort and peace.


Additional Verse
 "When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire, you shall not be burned, nor shall the flame scorch you." Isaiah 43:2

Action Tips:
When you feel overwhelmed by anxiety or face a crisis, take a moment to pause and pray. Cry out to God, asking Him for His comfort, guidance, and strength to navigate the storm.

Prayer:
Lord, I thank You for Your presence in my life, especially during the storms that cause me anxiety and fear. Please help me remember that You value me deeply and that You are with me in every situation. In my time of need, teach me to cry out to You, trusting in Your comfort and peace. Grant me the strength to weather the storms of life, knowing that You are my refuge and my ever-present help. In Jesus' name, Amen.

THE HIGHER JURISDICTION OF GOD'S DEITY WILL BE DEMONSTRATED BY HIS INCOMING TRUE SON AND INCARNATION, THE REAL CHRIST! (Colossians 1: 19)

God cannot sin because He is above the law, not because He obeys the law. The righteousness of God, therefore, is a function of His absolute immunity over the law.  For example, if alcohol is prohibited for an age limit, it is an offence for those under the range of that prohibition. Passing that age limit, it is no longer an offence for me to drink alcohol, because I am no longer under that jurisdiction.  Accordingly, the manifestation of God in human form is subject to the activation of His absolute immunity by the Anointed God-incarnate, which elevates Him above the jurisdiction of the law that normal people are subject to (Romans 3: 19). And, if the law is abolished for the Anointed God-incarnate by the activation of His absolute immunity, He is subject to obey the regulations of fasting as required for that activation, and has no obligation to the old law which is being demolished by the overflow of God's infinite grace (John 1: 16), through His obedience on behalf of His...

I PREACH YOU AS THE TRUE CHRIST CRUCIFIED, MAN'S BEST AND LIVING SACRIFICE OF OBEDIENCE TO GOD! (1st Corinthians 1: 23-24; Romans 5: 19)

While it is true that 'might' might be right sometimes, it is necessary to buttress the fact that might is not always right, hence the surgery of fasting is mandatory to weaken and eliminate the interference of the flesh, and to illuminate and strengthen the spirit to do the work silently and efficiently, without the oratorical power of human eloquence.  Zechariah 4: 6 This is the Word of God to You, O Christ: The redemption of man will not come through the power of Your human eloquence and fanciful speech, nor by might of shouting loud prayers to impress Your flesh or hearers (Isaiah 42: 1-4), but by My Spirit silently at work in You, says the Lord! Galatians 3: 1 O You lavishly anointed God-incarnate, I rejoice that You are no longer under satanic bewitchment like blind Christians and foolish Galatians! Surely, now that You have clearly understood how to manifest the glory of God to all creation (Psalm 40: 6; 2nd Corinthians 3: 18), nothing can stop You from obeying and follo...
