Do you understand something of why there was such a violent storm on the Lake of Galilee that night?

A demonised man is about to be delivered and set free. Could this be prevented? Can this be stopped?

Jesus and His chosen men are sailing across the Lake. Jesus is exhausted. He has been active preaching and teaching and answering questions. He is worn out, physically tired, and falls asleep.

Rest and sleep is all He needs. So often a good sleep might be the therapy to do us most good.

Suddenly there is a storm and the boat is being thrown around.

You can be swimming in Galilee’s refreshing waters and a few hours later it appears like a boiling cauldron, caused by cool air drifting through the Horns of Hittim and falling onto the warm water.

These experienced fishermen knew the danger they were in as water is coming into the boat.

This is a crisis, and much more serious than a band of men drowning.

The whole future work of God is lying in this little fishing boat – asleep!

If it could be wiped out now, what a triumph that would have been for the enemy of God, as he attempts to endanger, discourage, demoralise, depress and destroy.

Apply that to what Jesus is saying to us in these present days, when we can so easily think all will be lost. That will never happen. It says so in the Word.

As they are on the point of being wiped out, they wake Jesus. Could they not trust Him? He does challenge them regarding their faith, but then a word from Christ calms that raging storm.

Jesus never promised a smooth journey, but He did promise to be with us.
