“Who
Is This Man?”
They
Asked.
“Even
The Winds And Waves Obey Him!”
Scripture
Matthew
8
23 Then
Jesus got into the boat and started across the lake with his
disciples.
24 Suddenly,
a fierce storm struck the lake, with waves breaking into the boat.
But Jesus was sleeping.
26 Jesus
responded, “Why are you afraid? You have so little
faith!” Then he got up and rebuked the wind and waves, and
suddenly there was a great calm.
Observation
Who
is this Man? Who is Jesus to you? Today is the day we celebrate
Resurrection Sunday! No matter how long you live and no matter how
long I live, you and I can be certain of this, we are still going to
die! Are you ready to die? I mean ... have you made arrangements?
I
don't mean arrangements at the funeral home. I mean have you
surrendered your life to the Lord Jesus Christ and have you asked Him
to forgive you of your sins.
Jesus
came to this earth to rescue us. That is why He is called Savior!
Is
He your Savior?
John
20:25-29
But
he replied, “I won’t believe it unless I see the nail wounds in
his hands, put my fingers into them, and place my hand into the wound
in his side.”
26 Eight
days later the disciples were together again, and this time Thomas
was with them. The doors were locked; but suddenly, as before, Jesus
was standing among them. “Peace be with you,” he said.
27 Then he
said to Thomas, “Put your finger here, and look at my hands.
Put your hand into the wound in my side. Don’t be faithless any
longer. Believe!”
29 Then
Jesus told him, “You believe because you have seen me. Blessed
are those who believe without seeing me.”
Jesus
Christ is my Lord and my God!
Who
is Jesus to you?
Application
I
will celebrate the Resurrection of my Savior today!
How
about you?
Don't
stay home – get up and get to church!
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, thank You for leaving Heaven and coming down to this earth.
Thank You for taking on the human flesh and dying a criminal's death
on the cross to pay the penalty for my sins. Thank You for coming
back to life just as You said that You would. And I know that one day
soon You are coming back to get me and everyone else who calls You
Lord and means it.

Bible Reading: 1 Samuel 24; Psalm 57,58; 1 Chronicles 8; Matthew 8
