BIBLE STUDY| MIRACLES OF JESUS SERIES.|THE FIFTH MIRACLE OF JESUS pt.8| WALKING BEFORE GOD, COVENANT, IDENTITY & ETERNAL WITNESS|JESUS WALKING ON WATER| CHIMDI OHAHUNA Main Bible Text:-Mark 4:35-41, Matthew 8:23-27, and Luke 8:22-25 In this powerful, Scripture-packed episode, we'll discover why the disciples, seasoned fishermen who knew storms inside out (Matthew 4:18-20), didn't cry out to Jesus until their boat was "now full" and all hope seemed lost. It's a mirror to our own lives; how often do we lean on our own understanding, skills, and past victories until we're in real jeopardy? In this episode You'll learn:- The spiritual danger of self-reliance: Trusting in yourself first isn't wisdom, it's a setup for failure. True "smartness" means running to God at the first sign of trouble, not after your plans have failed. Why denying or pacifying problems instead of seeking God's intervention is likened to witchcraft, it's a refusal to acknowledge the alarm and fear that signal it's time to act. Storms aren't preventable; they're part of the journey to "the other side" that Jesus has ordained. But you can stop them from capsizing you by learning to "sleep" in the storm—entering a place of profound trust in the Lord (Psalm 61:2). When overwhelmed, don't look elsewhere: Cry out to Jesus, the Rock higher than any wave (Mark 4:38). Jesus as the Master Key: He's already in your ship, ordaining your destiny, accompanying you through the storm, and securing your future beyond it. Biblical symbolism of waters: "Great waters" often represent trouble in Scripture (Psalm 32:6; Ezekiel 26:19). Waters outside propel the ship forward—we're called to sail on troubles as salt and light (Matthew 5:13-16)—but waters inside spell disaster. Declare it today: "MY LIFE IS NOT THE OCEAN FOR TROUBLE!" Through Jesus in us, we arise, shine, and offer solutions to a troubled world (Isaiah 60:1-3; Romans 8:19). The necessity of renewal: External troubles will splash in, accumulating in your mind and heart, but renewing your mind (Romans 12:2) empowers you to rebuke the storm and speak peace to the waves. Value your life in Christ and the lives of others—that's the fuel to bring heaven's solutions to earth. God's protection in the storm: Having God doesn't exempt you from waves beating against your ship, but you can always call on Him to save, secure, and preserve. Discover the "secret place" in God—like Joseph becoming the refuge for Israel in famine—where your mind can't be worn out (Psalm 124:1-8). Intimacy with the Holy Spirit keeps you conscious of Jesus within, turning panic into peace. This isn't just Bible study—it's a lifeline for anyone facing overwhelming circumstances. If you're tired of self-help that sinks, tune in to hear how childlike dependence on Jesus isn't weakness; it's your greatest strength. Don't feel childish for crying out—be childlike in calling on Him. Action Points to Storm-Proof Your Life: * Embrace childlike faith: Call on Jesus first, not last. * Bring solutions: As light in the world, use His power to address troubles around you. *Value life: Honor your own journey in Christ and extend that grace to others—rebuke storms, speak peace, and watch God move. Beloved, whether you're in the middle of a personal gale or helping someone else navigate theirs, this episode will equip you to wake Jesus, stand firm, and sail through to victory. The storm may rage, but with the Master on board, peace is just a cry away. Press play and let the winds hear His voice: "Peace, be still." Your ship won't sink—it's time to rise and shine.
