| How To Be Steady In Your Storm Mark 4:35-41 |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| A study by Pastor Jerry Frazier Pastor, Fountain Gate Worship Center |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Life offers storms and it's best to be in the boat with the Master as you hold fast. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| "Holding fast" is one of the most frequent exhortations throughout the Scripture. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| Here are five necessary instructions that will cause you to be steady in your storms: | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 1} Hold fast to the complete revelation of truth. {Titus 1:9}a} Stick to the "Divine Expression": the 'Word made alive.'b} Failure is the path of least persistence. {2 Tim 1:13} | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 2} Hold fast to our confession of Christ. {Hebrews 4:14} a} Lay hold of YOUR covenant agreement with Father God. b} Our covenant Keeper is not a dead martyr, but a Living Saviour! c} Necessity makes even the timid brave. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 3} Hold fast to all that conforms to His will. {1 Thessalonians 5:21} a} To be steady in your storm, listen to the Captain. b} Conforming to His will releases "peace, be still." 1} the true translation for '...be still' is 'be muzzled.' {The same as you would for an out of control dog} c} A silenced enemy is an awesomeanswer in the midst of your storm! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 4} Hold fast our confidence in His coming. {Hebrews 3:6} a} Rejoice and boast of the glory during your storm. b} When the winds howl, you need to shout! {Numbers 23:21} c} A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner. d} Confident believers always become acheivers. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
| 5} Hold fast our combined treasures in Christ. {Revelation 3:1} a} SIEZE YOUR POSSESSIONS! b} DON'T THROW YOUR PROVISIONS OVERBOARD! | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||
