Withstanding the strongest storms.

We must remember God's faithfulness in our lives. How do we do this?

18 While he was saying these things to them, a ruler came and worshipped him, saying, "My daughter has just died; but come and lay your hand on her, and she will live." 19 Jesus got up and followed him with his disciples. 20 And behold, a woman who had been ill with a flow of blood for twelve years came up behind him and touched the hem of his garment, 21 for she said to herself, "If I only touch his garment, I will be made well." 22 But Jesus turned and looked at her and said, "Take heart, daughter; your faith has made you well." And the woman was made well from that hour. 23 When Jesus entered the ruler's house, he saw the flute players and the crowd making a commotion. 24 He said to them, "Move away; the child is not dead, but sleeping." And they mocked him. 25 But when the people had been put outside, he went in and took the girl by the hand, and she stood up. 26 And news of this spread throughout that land.
Two Blind Men Receive Their Sight
27 As Jesus passed on from there, two blind men followed him, crying out, "Have mercy on us, Son of David!" 28 And when he had come into the house, the blind men came to him. And Jesus said to them, "Do you believe that I am able to do this?" They said, "Yes, Lord." 29 Then he touched their eyes, saying, "According to your faith, be it done to you." 30 And their eyes were opened. And Jesus strictly charged them, saying, "See that no one knows this." 31 But when they had gone out, they spread his news throughout that land.
A Mute Man Speaks
32 As they went out, behold, they brought to him a mute man possessed by a demon. 33 And when the demon was cast out, the mute man spoke. And the people marveled, saying, "Nothing like this has ever been seen in Israel."

Matthew 9:18-33

Jesus' followers, his disciples, experienced impressive moments during their time walking alongside Jesus Christ. They participated in impressive miracles, such as when Jesus revived the ruler's daughter, when he made those two men see again, when he allowed the mute to speak again, when he freed the man who was possessed by a demon. Let us also remember when he and his disciples were sailing on the sea, and a violent storm arose, and Jesus walked on the water as if nothing had happened. At that moment, his disciples were afraid.

24 Now the boat was in the middle of the sea, tossed by the waves, for the wind was contrary. 25 But in the fourth watch of the night, Jesus came to them, walking on the sea. 26 When the disciples saw him walking on the sea, they were terrified, saying, "It's a ghost!" And they cried out in fear.

Matthew 14:24-26

This same thing can happen in those stormy times. Perhaps because of the situation we are experiencing, we may lose sight of what Jesus Christ has accomplished for us in the past. We forget when Jesus answered our prayers, we forget when He guided us through His Holy Spirit, or we simply forget those miracles that seemed impossible.

The key here is to read the Word of God and nourish ourselves with it. It is also important to always keep in mind what God has done in our lives. This is like a map that shows us where we have been and how God has helped us along the way to where we are now and where we want to go. Every trial, every difficulty we go through is different. We can simply pause and remember how great God is, how powerful He is, and the mighty work He has done in us to bring us to where we are today. His nature is unchanging, and He is unconditionally faithful regardless of what we do or don't do.

Let us remember that our nature and the enemy seeks to divert our focus from God, our job is to spend time in the word, not neglect reading the Bible and always keep in mind where God has taken us, all this will help us remember that God is our provider and is the one who always protects us.
