WATCH THIS…..CHRIST DOES NOT CORRECT THE SEA TO SPEAK TO THE WIND:
In the Gospel of Mark, we find the disciples caught in the middle of a fierce storm on the Sea of Galilee. The wind howled, the waves crashed over the boat, and panic seized even these experienced fishermen. Meanwhile, Jesus was asleep, seemingly unaware of their fear. But when they woke Him, terrified and pleading, Jesus didn’t scold them or respond with fear. He stood up — calm in the chaos — and addressed the storm. But notice what Scripture says: He rebuked the wind, and then He said to the waves, “Peace, be still.” (Mark 4:39).
Jesus didn’t start by speaking to what was visible — the sea. He went straight to the source — the wind. Because the sea was only reacting to what the wind was stirring. The water wasn’t the problem. The real force behind the chaos was the wind, and Jesus knew that peace would only come when the root cause was silenced.
That’s the same way He deals with us. We cry out in the middle of life’s storms — when everything around us feels unstable, when emotions rise and waves of fear crash into our confidence. But Jesus doesn’t just fix the surface issues. He goes deeper. He speaks to the unseen. He rebukes the fear that drives the anxiety. He confronts the lies that fuel our doubt. He silences the spiritual agitation that stirs up chaos in our hearts. He doesn’t simply calm the waves — He speaks to the wind behind them.
We often ask God to fix the things we can see — to change situations, remove obstacles, quiet the noise. But Jesus reminds us: real peace begins when the wind is addressed. That might mean healing a wound no one else knows about. It might mean uncovering a generational weight, or tearing down strongholds that have whispered lies for years. And only He has the power and authority to do it.
So, my beloved my
brothers and sisters, if you find yourself in a storm, overwhelmed by the waves — don’t just pray for calm waters. Pray for spiritual clarity. Ask the Lord to identify and silence the deeper struggle. Trust that He knows what’s truly causing the unrest, and believe that when He speaks, everything must obey. Even the wind.
PRAY WITH ME:
Lord Jesus, I thank You that You are not afraid of storms — and You’re never asleep to my pain. You see not just the chaos around me, but the unseen forces that stir it up. Today, I ask You to speak to the wind in my life. Speak to the fear, the doubt, the wounds, the lies — whatever is at the root of my unrest. I trust You to bring real peace — not temporary calm, but lasting stillness in my soul. Help me to rest in Your authority, knowing that even the winds and waves obey You. In Your mighty name I pray, believe, receive, and praise. Amen.
