Trust His Plan

Don’t be afraid of the storms in your life, for they are temporary. Trust in God’s steadfast love and guidance to carry you through. #FaithOverFear

Mark 4:39 And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.

In the midst of life’s storms, remember that you have the power to calm the chaos within. Just like in Mark 4:39, you can rise above any adversity and bring peace to your soul.When the winds of doubt and fear try to shake your foundation, rebuke them with unwavering faith and speak words of tranquility. Embrace the stillness that lies within you.

Believe in your ability to overcome any challenge that comes your way. Let this verse be a reminder that even in the face of turmoil, you have the strength to create a great calm.

So, take a deep breath, hear the voice of the Holy Spirit within you, and let it radiate outwards. You are capable of bringing serenity not only to yourself but also to those around you. Embrace this power and let it guide you towards a life filled with tranquility and fulfillment.

Rock Solid Faith

And Peter said, Man, I know not what thou sayest. And immediately, while he yet spake, the cock crew. (Luke 22:60)

For centuries we have enjoyed practicing our religion in safety here in America. Faith was so important to the founders of this nation that its protection is clearly stated in the first sentence of the first amendment to our Constitution. First, in a series of ten amendments which are known as the Bill of Rights. Sadly, there is an increasing number of people who are adamantly opposed to allowing Christians to have that basic freedom. Too often we read in the news of attempts to silence the preaching of God’s word. Here in America, the land of freedom, Christians have been arrested for refusing to deny their faith.

I would like to believe I am grounded enough in my faith that I would boldly proclaim the name of Christ no matter the circumstances. But in our verse today we find Peter denying he knew Christ the third time. Peter was afraid.

Peter was the third disciple to follow Christ. When Jesus met Peter, He renamed him Cephas, which interpreted means a stone, signifying the rock-solid faith that Peter would have. Peter stepped out on the waters of the Sea of Galilee when Jesus said “Come”.

All the disciples hid in fear as Jesus alone faced those next few hours of torment leading up to His crucifixion. But the Bible only gives us the account of Peter, the one whom Christ granted the rock-solid faith.

Even the strongest Christian has a breaking point. Rock-solid faith planted in the heart of this carnal flesh will eventually show its weakness. But in our weakness, God shows His unfailing strength. Jesus tells us that the tiniest amount of faith in Him is enough to move mountains. When our faith falters, (that’s when, not if) we are still secure in His hand.

Brethren we need to encourage one another, pray for each other, that in this time we have, we may continue to stand boldly for Christ.
