TITLE: THERE IS MIRACLE IN THE STORM (PART THREE)

The storm of life are many and varied. They include illness, opposition, pressure at work, unemployment, relationship difficulties, disappointment, bereavement and persecution.

In the world you will have will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world. John 16:33, Matt 7:25-27

Have the right ATTITUDE because storms are sure Matt 4:39-40; Luke 8:25

"Fear not, for I am with you, be not dismayed, for I am your God" Isa 41:10

Our God is bigger then our storms. Isa 43:2, 1peter 1:6-7

No storm can swallow us when you are in God's will. Matt 14:22-33

"My brethren, count all joy when ye fall into divers temptation; knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing "Jam.1:2-3

"we glory in tribulation also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience; and patience, experience; and experience, hope: and hope maketh not ashamed; .." Rom 5:3-6

Therefore I take pleasure in infirmities, in reproaches, in necessities, in persecution, in distresses for Christ's sake: for when I am weak, then am I strong 2corinth 12:7-10.

For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth. If ye endure chasteneth, God dealeth with you as with sons; for what son is he whom the father chasteneth not? Heb 12:6-7

TITLED: THERE IS MIRACLE IN THE STORM (Part one)

One test of our Christianity is how we handle a crisis. It is easier to live like a Christian when things are going great, when all our prayers are being answered, when we are in good health, when our income is rising. But when reverse is the case, many believers falter.

STORMS ARE THE EVIDENCE OF OUR SONSHIP RELATIONSHIP WITH GOD:

Jesus Christ is the TRUTH and he tells us the truth. Every true believer must experience storms John 16:33

Jesus experienced storms, so must we. No servant is greater than his master, John 15:18-20 ; Acts 14:22

Apostle Paul affirms it. 1 Thess 3:3,4

Character is revealed in a crisis, not made in a crisis 1 Corinth. 3:13; Acts 15:37-38; 2Tim.4:10

Once you lose your goal, you will lose sight of the very meaning for which you exist, and you will become purposeless.

WE ARE EAGLES AND STORMS ARE NORMAL FOR US.

Eagles love the storm. When clouds gather, the eagles get excited. The eagle handles both STORM and SERPENT. They embrace the storm in life, but they fight the serpent to triumph.

For example, Joseph embraced the circumstance of slavery as he resisted bitterness; resentment; jealousy; and despair. He rose above the storm.

When the enemy attacks us through relatives, friends, job, finances, false leaders, negative thoughts, traumas, war, crime, persecution and other circumstances, we need to destroy the SERPENT (Satan, the spiritual enemy) that is behind these activities. Isa 30:31; Eph. 6:12

God is always with us in the storm. Isa. 43:1-2; Heb 13:5

God uses His angels to our assuage our storm Acts 12:6-7; 27:24;

Absolutely nothing can change God’s ultimate purpose for your life unless you choose to disobey Him.

Storms cannot destroy the child of God, because God’s promise is sure.

For every storm God allows, he has his purpose therein such that the storm will both glorify God and promote us.
