“The wind blew very, very strong and it made the boat go under the waves and flip.”
Windy weather and a damaged tree are being blamed as the cause of a deadly zip lining accident at Sundance Mountain Resort on May 20.
Wind
From Genesis all the way to Matthew follow the wind, keeping in mind Who controls it all!
The Sea of Galilee, Kinneret, where the "test" took place |
Discipleship Tested
18 Now when Jesus saw a crowd around Him, He gave orders to depart to the other side of the sea. Then a scribe came and said to Him, “Teacher, I will follow You wherever You go.”
Jesus said to him, “The foxes have holes and the birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.”
Another of the disciples said to Him, “Lord, permit me first to go and bury my father.”
But Jesus said to him, “Follow Me, and allow the dead to bury their own dead.”
When He got into the boat, His disciples followed Him.
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.
And they came to Him and woke Him, saying, “Save us, Lord; we are perishing!”
He said to them, “Why are you afraid, you men of little faith?”
Then He got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and it became perfectly calm.
The men were amazed, and said, “What kind of a man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?”
Matthew 8
The lesson here is to thank God for every day He gives us to live and breath His air on His earth, and above all, live in the fear of Him and keep yourself from evil.
That is not what the perverts leading Israel into severe judgment are doing.
The conclusion, when all has been heard, is:
fear God and keep His commandments, because this applies to every person.
For God will bring every act to judgment, everything which is hidden,
whether it is good or evil.
Ecclesiastes 12: 13-14.
