On the same day, when evening had come, He said to them, “Let us cross over to the other side.” Now when they had left the multitude, they took Him along in the boat as He was. And other little boats were also with Him. And a great windstorm arose, and the waves beat into the boat, so that it was already filling. Mark 4:35-37
Strong’s G2978-windstorm
A whirlwind, a tempestuous wind
- a violent attack of wind, a squall
- never a single gust nor a steady blowing wind, however violent, but a storm breaking forth from black thunder clouds in furious gusts, with floods of rain, and throwing everything topsy-turvy
It is no coincidence that a windstorm has risen, dear one. For any “crossing over” season tends to attract a storm that makes everything go a bit “topsy-turvy.”
You’ll want to turn around and run back to the other side, but don’t.
Jesus is still in the boat and He knows exactly where He is going.
He is not worried about that ole’ windstorm. You see, it’s very Creator can demand, “Peace be still,” and it must obey.
Don’t think it strange of the sudden storm as you near the other side. For the devil knows good and well he is about to lose decades of authority and positioning that was always there to halt you making it across. He is watching all his efforts come to nothing right before his eyes. So he is in a panic.
But you don’t have to be.
All of Hell has been assigned to kill, steal, and destroy that which you were born to do. Trust me, the demons are scattering frantically because they know what, and WHO, you carry.
They hope you’ll evacuate. They hope you’ll leave the post. They know if they can send the perfect distraction to you, you’ll fall short of the glory meant for you.
You see, that devil is guarding your door.
But listen, you serve the Almighty ONE who is THE DOOR. So use your birthright and demand that devil get out of your way. The name of Jesus demands they leave. Put the NAME above all names to work.
It will be up to you to decide to stay put during the hellish windstorm. If you tuck tail and run then you’re gonna miss out on some beautiful healings and deliverances. There’s gonna be some demoniacs loosed from chains. Don’t you want to join Jesus in that kind of work?
I know it seems like Jesus isn’t there, but He is. You just stay in prayer and worship the ONE who called you.
Suddenly you will hear Him rise calling for the wind to halt and the storm to calm.
Do not jump ship just yet…
You are nearer to the shore than you realize.
