What did Jesus do during the storms?

What were the reactions of the disciples?

WHAT JESUS DID

JESUS WALKED

And in the fourth watch of the night He came to them, walking on the sea.

MATT 14:25

JESUS SLEPT

And behold, there arose a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was being covered with the waves; but Jesus Himself was asleep. 

Matt 8:24

JESUS LOVED

Immediately Jesus stretched out His hand and took hold of him, and *said to him, “You of little faith, why did you doubt?”

MATT 14:31

JESUS CALMED

Then He got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and it became perfectly calm.

Matt 8:26

WHAT DISCIPLES DID

BLINDNESS

But when they saw Him walking on the sea, they supposed that it was a ghost, and cried out;

Mark 6:49

BLAMING

The disciples woke him and said to him, “Teacher, don’t you care if we drown?"

Mark 4:38

STRIVE

But seeing the wind, he became frightened, and beginning to sink, he cried out, “Lord, save me!” 

Matt 14:30

FEAR

They were terrified and asked each other, “Who is this? Even the wind and the waves obey him!”

Mark 4:41

WHAT WILL YOU DO?

God is Sovereign

He is in charge. This pandemic is permitted by HIM. Do we see God as using this storm?

God is all Powerful

The eye of the storm is the centre of the storm that is in total calm and stillness. How do we get into the eye?

God is Purposeful

HE has a plan. The storm destroys all in its path. What is God tearing down? So we cannot stay still; we must move with God.

God is Personal

HE is relational. We must stay within the eye of the storm or risk being destroyed too. What are the fault lines that are showing up in your life?
