  • On christmas day 2015,
  • 00:01:33.416 --> 00:01:37.754
  • Friends and family members gathered together
  • 00:01:38.688 --> 00:01:41.257

  • Little did the residents of garland, rowlett,

  • And collin county know that within a matter of hours,
  • 00:02:00.510 --> 00:02:04.747
  • A devastating tornado would strike that area,
  • 00:02:04.747 --> 00:02:09.018
  • A tornado with winds up to 200 miles per hour.
  • 00:02:09.018 --> 00:02:13.122
  • The deadliest and most fierce tornado
  • 00:02:13.122 --> 00:02:15.425
  • Recorded in that area's history.
  • 00:02:15.425 --> 00:02:18.795
  • The result was millions of dollars of property damage.
  • 00:02:18.795 --> 00:02:22.765
  • 11 people lost their lives as a result of the storm.
  • 00:02:22.765 --> 00:02:27.637
  • What started out that christmas day as a day of celebration
  • 00:02:27.637 --> 00:02:32.375
  • Turned into a night of horror.
  • 00:02:32.375 --> 00:02:36.012
  • But that's how storms come.
  • 00:02:36.613 --> 00:02:39.182
  • Storms that are deadly and disruptive and destructive
  • 00:02:39.182 --> 00:02:44.520
  • Come suddenly and they come unexpectedly.
  • 00:02:45.388 --> 00:02:48.858
  • Today, we're going to look at another group of people
  • 00:02:49.926 --> 00:02:52.061
  • Who experienced a life-threatening storm in their life,
  • 00:02:52.061 --> 00:02:57.033
  • But this storm, instead of destroying their lives,
  • 00:02:57.033 --> 00:03:00.637
  • Actually strengthened their faith.
  • 00:03:00.637 --> 00:03:04.107
  • And today, we're going to look at their experience
  • 00:03:04.107 --> 00:03:07.010
  • And discover some secrets for surviving the storms
  • 00:03:07.010 --> 00:03:10.713
  • That come into our life as well.
  • 00:03:10.713 --> 00:03:13.182
  • If you have your bibles, turn to luke 8
  • 00:03:13.182 --> 00:03:16.619
  • As we talk about "secrets for surviving your storms."
  • 00:03:16.619 --> 00:03:21.090
  • Now, today we are resuming our study of the gospel of luke.
  • 00:03:21.090 --> 00:03:25.628
  • I've called this series,
  • 00:03:25.628 --> 00:03:26.996
  • "reigniting your passion for christ."
  • 00:03:26.996 --> 00:03:30.733
  • Maybe at the beginning of this new year,
  • 00:03:30.733 --> 00:03:32.735
  • You would say your passion for christ
  • 00:03:32.735 --> 00:03:35.672
  • Isn't what it should be, and maybe you've become dull
  • 00:03:35.672 --> 00:03:39.342
  • And lackadaisical about your faith.
  • 00:03:39.342 --> 00:03:41.911
  • Let me assure you, nothing will reignite your faith anymore
  • 00:03:41.911 --> 00:03:45.848
  • Than getting up close to the savior,
  • 00:03:45.848 --> 00:03:47.984
  • Looking at his life and ministry.
  • 00:03:47.984 --> 00:03:50.219
  • And that's what we're going to do over these months
  • 00:03:50.219 --> 00:03:52.655
  • In our study of the gospel of luke.
  • 00:03:52.655 --> 00:03:55.858
  • Now last time in luke 8,
  • 00:03:55.858 --> 00:03:57.260
  • We talked about the parable jesus told
  • 00:03:57.260 --> 00:04:00.530
  • Of the sower and the seed.
  • 00:04:00.530 --> 00:04:02.899
  • And remember that parable illustrates
  • 00:04:02.899 --> 00:04:05.702
  • The four different conditions of the human heart.
  • 00:04:05.702 --> 00:04:08.838
  • Why is it some people who receive the gospel embrace it
  • 00:04:08.838 --> 00:04:13.076
  • And it takes root in their life,
  • 00:04:13.076 --> 00:04:14.877
  • While other people can hear the same message and reject it?
  • 00:04:14.877 --> 00:04:17.714
  • Well, jesus said,
  • 00:04:17.714 --> 00:04:19.248
  • "it all has to do with the condition of the human heart."
  • 00:04:19.248 --> 00:04:22.485
  • Now, sometime after that parable, we come to verse 22.
  • 00:04:22.485 --> 00:04:26.723
  • Look at the text with me.
  • 00:04:26.723 --> 00:04:28.524
  • Now it came about on one of those days
  • 00:04:28.524 --> 00:04:30.993
  • That jesus and his disciples got into a boat
  • 00:04:30.993 --> 00:04:34.697
  • And he said to them,
  • 00:04:34.697 --> 00:04:36.132
  • "let us go over to the other side of the lake,"
  • 00:04:36.132 --> 00:04:40.236
  • And they launched out.
  • 00:04:40.236 --> 00:04:41.637
  • Now i want you to underline that command,
  • 00:04:41.637 --> 00:04:44.073
  • "go over to the other side of the lake."
  • 00:04:44.073 --> 00:04:46.676
  • You'll see why this is significant in just a moment.
  • 00:04:46.676 --> 00:04:49.712
  • Now, what lake is jesus talking about?
  • 00:04:49.712 --> 00:04:52.448
  • Well, he's talking about the lake of gennesaret.
  • 00:04:52.448 --> 00:04:55.351
  • Today, we call it the sea of galilee.
  • 00:04:55.351 --> 00:04:59.389
  • But it really wasn't a sea, it was just a lake!
  • 00:04:59.389 --> 00:05:02.625
  • It was about 13 miles long.
  • 00:05:02.625 --> 00:05:04.560
  • It was about eight miles wide at its widest point.
  • 00:05:04.560 --> 00:05:08.197
  • It's also today the lake of gennesaret,
  • 00:05:08.197 --> 00:05:11.067
  • Or the sea of galilee,
  • 00:05:11.067 --> 00:05:12.502
  • Is the lowest freshwater lake in the world.
  • 00:05:12.502 --> 00:05:15.338
  • It is 680 feet below sea level.
  • 00:05:15.338 --> 00:05:18.708
  • You'll see why that's significant as well in just a moment.
  • 00:05:18.708 --> 00:05:21.577
  • So jesus says, "we're going on a boating expedition.
  • 00:05:21.577 --> 00:05:24.380
  • Let's get in the boat and go to the other side."
  • 00:05:24.380 --> 00:05:26.983
  • Look at verse 23.
  • 00:05:26.983 --> 00:05:28.384
  • But as they were sailing along, jesus fell asleep.
  • 00:05:28.384 --> 00:05:33.623
  • Now here you see
  • 00:05:33.990 --> 00:05:35.291
  • A great illustration of the humanity of jesus.
  • 00:05:35.291 --> 00:05:36.893
  • Yes, jesus is 100% god, but he was also 100% human.
  • 00:05:36.893 --> 00:05:42.231
  • He got tired just like you and i get tired.
  • 00:05:43.132 --> 00:05:45.568
  • He was ready to take a nap
  • 00:05:45.568 --> 00:05:47.003
  • And there was probably something about
  • 00:05:47.003 --> 00:05:48.404
  • That gentle rocking motion of the boat
  • 00:05:48.404 --> 00:05:51.774
  • That put him to sleep.
  • 00:05:51.774 --> 00:05:53.943
  • That's how some people respond to
  • 00:05:53.943 --> 00:05:55.545
  • The rocking motion of a ship, it puts them to sleep.
  • 00:05:55.545 --> 00:05:58.648
  • I'll never forget my first experience on a sailboat.
  • 00:05:58.648 --> 00:06:01.584
  • It was with amy. we were in the ninth grade.
  • 00:06:01.584 --> 00:06:04.120
  • Her family loved to sail,
  • 00:06:04.120 --> 00:06:05.555
  • So they thought they'd take me on a sailing trip.
  • 00:06:05.555 --> 00:06:08.257
  • I spent the entire time leaning over the edge of the ship.
  • 00:06:08.257 --> 00:06:12.195
  • How can i say this delicately?
  • 00:06:12.195 --> 00:06:14.297
  • Removing ballasts.
  • 00:06:14.297 --> 00:06:15.798
  • I mean, it was a sickening experience all day long.
  • 00:06:15.798 --> 00:06:21.137
  • That's how i responded to the ship,
  • 00:06:21.904 --> 00:06:23.039
  • But jesus had a different response.
  • 00:06:23.039 --> 00:06:24.574
  • He fell asleep. he was tired, it put him to sleep.
  • 00:06:24.574 --> 00:06:27.043
  • But notice what happened, verse 23.
  • 00:06:27.043 --> 00:06:30.513
  • But as they were sailing along, jesus fell asleep
  • 00:06:31.447 --> 00:06:33.816
  • And a fierce gale of wind descended upon the lake
  • 00:06:33.816 --> 00:06:38.721
  • And they began to be swamped and to be in danger.
  • 00:06:38.721 --> 00:06:43.259
  • Now, remember what i said about the sea of galilee.
  • 00:06:43.259 --> 00:06:45.228
  • It's 680 feet below sea level.
  • 00:06:45.228 --> 00:06:47.864
  • Around the sea of galilee are imposing mountains,
  • 00:06:47.864 --> 00:06:51.734
  • And what happens regularly is that
  • 00:06:51.734 --> 00:06:53.936
  • Cool air from the mountain descends
  • 00:06:53.936 --> 00:06:57.340
  • And it comes over the lake where you have,
  • 00:06:57.340 --> 00:06:59.709
  • It's really a basin,
  • 00:06:59.709 --> 00:07:01.244
  • Where you have this warm, humid air trapped above the lake.
  • 00:07:01.244 --> 00:07:05.314
  • And you know what happens when cold air meets warm air?
  • 00:07:05.314 --> 00:07:08.684
  • There's a sudden storm, an explosion.
  • 00:07:08.684 --> 00:07:11.287
  • And this regularly happened on the sea of galilee.
  • 00:07:11.287 --> 00:07:13.923
  • In fact, it was such a fierce storm that
  • 00:07:13.923 --> 00:07:16.225
  • The boat began to be swamped with water.
  • 00:07:16.225 --> 00:07:18.427
  • They were in life-threatening danger.
  • 00:07:18.427 --> 00:07:20.463
  • When i read this account,
  • 00:07:20.463 --> 00:07:22.265
  • Think about that scene from the movie, "the perfect storm."
  • 00:07:22.265 --> 00:07:24.867
  • Remember that movie?
  • 00:07:24.867 --> 00:07:26.135
  • And that scene where you have that tiny boat
  • 00:07:26.135 --> 00:07:28.404
  • Facing a wall of water that comes over it?
  • 00:07:28.404 --> 00:07:31.307
  • That's what was going on here.
  • 00:07:31.307 --> 00:07:32.708
  • This wasn't just a rain shower, it was a violent storm.
  • 00:07:32.708 --> 00:07:36.646
  • They were in danger,
  • 00:07:36.646 --> 00:07:38.014
  • A term meaning that they were risking their lives.
  • 00:07:38.014 --> 00:07:41.551
  • And where was jesus in the middle of this violent storm?
  • 00:07:41.551 --> 00:07:45.988
  • (pastor jeffress snoring)
  • 00:07:45.988 --> 00:07:50.092
  • Now, the text doesn't say this,
  • 00:07:50.726 --> 00:07:53.329
  • But i have to believe
  • 00:07:53.329 --> 00:07:54.730
  • The disciples were pretty disgusted with jesus.
  • 00:07:54.730 --> 00:07:58.668
  • I mean, how in the world could jesus be asleep
  • 00:07:58.668 --> 00:08:01.304
  • When their lives were at risk?
  • 00:08:01.304 --> 00:08:03.372
  • And so verse 24 does say that the disciples awaken jesus.
  • 00:08:03.372 --> 00:08:07.977
  • They awaken jesus.
  • 00:08:07.977 --> 00:08:09.211
  • They begin to shake him and say,
  • 00:08:09.211 --> 00:08:10.646
  • "lord, lord, don't you know what is happening?"
  • 00:08:10.646 --> 00:08:14.517
  • Jesus rebuked the wind and said to the sea, "hush!
  • 00:08:14.517 --> 00:08:19.789
  • Be still!"
  • 00:08:20.089 --> 00:08:21.490
  • Literally in greek, "winds and waves be muzzled!"
  • 00:08:21.490 --> 00:08:26.529
  • And the wind died down and it became perfectly calm.
  • 00:08:27.597 --> 00:08:30.800
  • And jesus turned to his disciples and he said,
  • 00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:34.537
  • "you ruined a perfectly good nap for this?"
  • 00:08:34.537 --> 00:08:37.807
  • (congregants laughs)
  • 00:08:37.807 --> 00:08:39.208
  • Now that didn't say that exactly, but he almost did.
  • 00:08:39.208 --> 00:08:42.445
  • Look what he says in verse 25!
  • 00:08:42.445 --> 00:08:44.680
  • And jesus said to them, "where is your faith?
  • 00:08:44.680 --> 00:08:49.518
  • Where's your faith?
  • 00:08:49.986 --> 00:08:51.988
  • Why are you so bent out of shape over this?
  • 00:08:51.988 --> 00:08:54.690
  • Didn't you hear what i said at the beginning of the trip?
  • 00:08:54.690 --> 00:08:58.160
  • Get in the ship so that we can go to the other side."
  • 00:08:58.160 --> 00:09:03.366
  • Jesus already promised
  • 00:09:03.866 --> 00:09:05.167
  • They were going to make it to the other side.
  • 00:09:05.167 --> 00:09:06.802
  • Where is your faith?
  • 00:09:06.802 --> 00:09:08.638
  • And they were fearful and they were amazed,
  • 00:09:09.572 --> 00:09:12.108
  • Saying to one another, "who then is this
  • 00:09:12.108 --> 00:09:15.745
  • That he commands even the wind and the water
  • 00:09:15.745 --> 00:09:18.848
  • That they should obey him?"
  • 00:09:18.848 --> 00:09:21.217
  • Somewhere there is going to come an unexpected storm
  • 00:09:21.217 --> 00:09:25.121
  • Into your life.
  • 00:09:25.121 --> 00:09:26.489
  • How do you survive that kind of unexpected storm?
  • 00:09:26.489 --> 00:09:30.393
  • Well, i want you to notice four principles
  • 00:09:30.393 --> 00:09:33.062
  • That emerge from this passage
  • 00:09:33.062 --> 00:09:34.563
  • That tell us how to handle the storms
  • 00:09:34.563 --> 00:09:36.932
  • That will inevitably come into our life.
  • 00:09:36.932 --> 00:09:40.770
  • Number one, remember, storms are natural. expect them.
  • 00:09:41.871 --> 00:09:47.176
  • Storms are natural. expect them.
  • 00:09:47.810 --> 00:09:50.246
  • I always think about peter's words in 1 peter 4:12 and 13.
  • 00:09:50.246 --> 00:09:54.050
  • He said, "beloved,
  • 00:09:54.050 --> 00:09:55.451
  • Don't be surprised at the fiery ordeal among you
  • 00:09:55.451 --> 00:10:00.556
  • Which comes upon you for your testing
  • 00:10:01.323 --> 00:10:02.992
  • As though some strange thing were happening to you."
  • 00:10:02.992 --> 00:10:06.729
  • And we think it's strange
  • 00:10:07.296 --> 00:10:08.531
  • That we would suffer as christians.
  • 00:10:08.531 --> 00:10:10.032
  • Peter says, "don't be surprised! don't think it's strange."
  • 00:10:10.032 --> 00:10:13.169
  • But he says, "but to the degree
  • 00:10:13.169 --> 00:10:14.637
  • That you share the sufferings of christ,
  • 00:10:14.637 --> 00:10:16.972
  • Keep on rejoicing so that at the revelation of his glory
  • 00:10:16.972 --> 00:10:21.877
  • You may rejoice with exaltation."
  • 00:10:21.877 --> 00:10:24.413
  • There is a day of rejoicing coming,
  • 00:10:25.214 --> 00:10:27.750
  • But that's not until he comes again.
  • 00:10:27.750 --> 00:10:30.653
  • Until then, don't be surprised at the storms in your life.
  • 00:10:30.653 --> 00:10:34.557
  • They're natural, expect them.
  • 00:10:34.557 --> 00:10:36.959
  • Principle number two, god is aware of our storm.
  • 00:10:36.959 --> 00:10:40.463
  • Call on him.
  • 00:10:40.463 --> 00:10:42.431
  • The disciples were convinced that
  • 00:10:43.165 --> 00:10:44.734
  • Jesus was unaware of what was happening to them.
  • 00:10:44.734 --> 00:10:46.802
  • So they said,
  • 00:10:46.802 --> 00:10:48.237
  • "lord, don't you care what is happening to them?"
  • 00:10:48.237 --> 00:10:50.773
  • Jesus was very calm.
  • 00:10:51.240 --> 00:10:53.342
  • You know why he was able to sleep through the storm
  • 00:10:53.342 --> 00:10:56.479
  • That he knew was coming?
  • 00:10:56.479 --> 00:10:58.047
  • Because he's the one who prepared the storm.
  • 00:10:58.948 --> 00:11:01.517
  • He's the one who prepared the storm.
  • 00:11:02.318 --> 00:11:04.787
  • There are so many times we want to say,
  • 00:11:05.654 --> 00:11:07.423
  • "well, god has nothing to do with
  • 00:11:07.423 --> 00:11:09.024
  • The calamity we're experiencing.
  • 00:11:09.024 --> 00:11:11.260
  • He wishes he could help, he wishes he could prevent it,
  • 00:11:11.260 --> 00:11:13.696
  • But he's just unable to do so."
  • 00:11:13.696 --> 00:11:15.064
  • No! that's not the god of the bible.
  • 00:11:15.064 --> 00:11:18.234
  • Now, please don't misunderstand what i'm saying.
  • 00:11:18.234 --> 00:11:20.603
  • God is not the author of evil.
  • 00:11:20.603 --> 00:11:26.342
  • Some of you have gone through tremendous evil
  • 00:11:23.939 --> 00:11:28.677
  • That has been inflicted upon you.
  • 00:11:28.677 --> 00:11:31.247
  • God is not the instigator of evil,
  • 00:11:31.247 --> 00:11:34.483
  • But he still has authority over evil.
  • 00:11:34.483 --> 00:11:37.319
  • I mean, there's nothing that happens to us
  • 00:11:37.319 --> 00:11:39.054
  • That god couldn't stop if he wanted to.
  • 00:11:39.054 --> 00:11:42.491
  • The fact is god has a purpose
  • 00:11:43.125 --> 00:11:44.960
  • In everything that happens to us,
  • 00:11:44.960 --> 00:11:46.495
  • Whether he's directly or indirectly responsible for it.
  • 00:11:46.495 --> 00:11:50.065
  • Nothing happens to a child of god
  • 00:11:50.065 --> 00:11:52.668
  • That has not been sifted through
  • 00:11:52.668 --> 00:11:54.270
  • The perfect loving will of god.
  • 00:11:54.270 --> 00:11:57.706
  • And that's why we say,
  • 00:11:57.706 --> 00:11:59.008
  • "god is aware of the storms in our life."
  • 00:11:59.008 --> 00:12:03.012
  • Thirdly, storms are opportunities for growth. welcome them.
  • 00:12:03.012 --> 00:12:08.384
  • Storms are opportunity for growth. welcome them.
  • 00:12:09.351 --> 00:12:12.521
  • Why is it that god either directly causes
  • 00:12:12.521 --> 00:12:14.924
  • Or at least allows storms into our life?
  • 00:12:14.924 --> 00:12:18.460
  • Is it because god is bored in heaven?
  • 00:12:18.460 --> 00:12:21.263
  • He's tired of talking to the angels
  • 00:12:21.263 --> 00:12:22.898
  • And thinks, "let's have a little fun down there on earth?"
  • 00:12:22.898 --> 00:12:26.101
  • Or does he allow storms into our life
  • 00:12:26.869 --> 00:12:28.737
  • Because he's a sadist who loves to inflict torture
  • 00:12:28.737 --> 00:12:32.942
  • Upon his creatures and see them writhe in pain?
  • 00:12:32.942 --> 00:12:35.711
  • No! psalm 103:8 says, "god is compassionate.
  • 00:12:35.711 --> 00:12:40.282
  • He is full of loving kindness."
  • 00:12:40.282 --> 00:12:43.452
  • The fact is god has a plan
  • 00:12:43.452 --> 00:12:46.255
  • That he's working out in our lives
  • 00:12:46.255 --> 00:12:48.657
  • And storms are the vehicles he uses
  • 00:12:48.657 --> 00:12:51.727
  • To cause us to grow in our faith.
  • 00:12:51.727 --> 00:12:54.697
  • You see that in luke 22:31 and 32.
  • 00:12:54.697 --> 00:12:58.234
  • Remember what jesus said to peter
  • 00:12:58.234 --> 00:12:59.835
  • Before peter would deny him three times?
  • 00:12:59.835 --> 00:13:02.438
  • He said in verse 31, "simon, simon, behold!
  • 00:13:02.438 --> 00:13:05.908
  • Satan has demanded permission to sift you like wheat.
  • 00:13:05.908 --> 00:13:10.479
  • But i have prayed for you that your faith may not fail
  • 00:13:10.479 --> 00:13:14.917
  • And you, when once you have turned again,
  • 00:13:14.917 --> 00:13:18.020
  • Will strengthen your brothers."
  • 00:13:18.020 --> 00:13:20.990
  • When a difficulty comes into your life,
  • 00:13:21.857 --> 00:13:26.662
  • Satan on one hand is rooting against you.
  • 00:13:27.529 --> 00:13:31.867
  • He is praying, if you will,
  • 00:13:31.867 --> 00:13:34.370
  • That that problem will absolutely destroy you.
  • 00:13:34.370 --> 00:13:37.973
  • But when you're going through that very same problem,
  • 00:13:39.041 --> 00:13:41.210
  • God is on your side rooting for you,
  • 00:13:41.210 --> 00:13:44.280
  • That that experience will deepen
  • 00:13:44.280 --> 00:13:46.749
  • And strengthen your faith in him.
  • 00:13:46.749 --> 00:13:49.618
  • Whether a problem in life destroys you
  • 00:13:50.452 --> 00:13:53.856
  • Or strengthens you is based upon your response.
  • 00:13:53.856 --> 00:13:59.094
  • Storms are marvelous opportunities for strength
  • 00:14:00.062 --> 00:14:02.998
  • And growth in our faith.
  • 00:14:02.998 --> 00:14:05.501
  • Scott peck has written,
  • 00:14:05.501 --> 00:14:07.336
  • "it is in this whole process of meeting and solving problems
  • 00:14:07.336 --> 00:14:10.973
  • That life has its meaning.
  • 00:14:10.973 --> 00:14:13.175
  • It is only because of problems
  • 00:14:13.175 --> 00:14:15.077
  • That we grow mentally and spiritually.
  • 00:14:15.077 --> 00:14:17.613
  • It is for this reason that wise people learn not to dread,
  • 00:14:17.613 --> 00:14:22.217
  • But actually to welcome problems
  • 00:14:22.217 --> 00:14:24.820
  • And welcome the pain of problems."
  • 00:14:24.820 --> 00:14:28.857
  • Thousands of years earlier,
  • 00:14:28.857 --> 00:14:30.492
  • James, the half brother of jesus,
  • 00:14:30.492 --> 00:14:32.328
  • Said it this way in james 1:2-4, and he said,
  • 00:14:32.328 --> 00:14:36.532
  • "you can consider it all joy, my brethren,
  • 00:14:36.532 --> 00:14:38.834
  • When you encounter various trials
  • 00:14:38.834 --> 00:14:40.836
  • Knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.
  • 00:14:40.836 --> 00:14:44.807
  • And let endurance have its perfect result
  • 00:14:44.807 --> 00:14:47.242
  • That you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing."
  • 00:14:47.242 --> 00:14:52.581
  • The value of storms is that hopefully, like the disciples,
  • 00:14:53.749 --> 00:14:58.153
  • The storms will drive you toward jesus
  • 00:14:58.153 --> 00:15:01.991
  • And not away from jesus.
  • 00:15:02.491 --> 00:15:04.760
  • Florence willet has penned these words
  • 00:15:05.594 --> 00:15:07.863
  • About the values of storms in our life.
  • 00:15:07.863 --> 00:15:10.466
  • This is great. listen to this.
  • 00:15:10.466 --> 00:15:12.434
  • "i thank god for bitter things.
  • 00:15:12.434 --> 00:15:15.838
  • They've been a friend to grace.
  • 00:15:15.838 --> 00:15:18.807
  • They've driven me from the paths of ease
  • 00:15:18.807 --> 00:15:21.310
  • To storm the secret place.
  • 00:15:21.310 --> 00:15:24.146
  • I thank god for the friends
  • 00:15:24.146 --> 00:15:25.814
  • Who failed to fill my heart's deep need.
  • 00:15:25.814 --> 00:15:29.218
  • They've driven me to the savior's feet,
  • 00:15:29.218 --> 00:15:31.987
  • Upon his love to feed.
  • 00:15:31.987 --> 00:15:34.590
  • I'm grateful too through all life's way
  • 00:15:34.590 --> 00:15:37.393
  • No one could satisfy.
  • 00:15:37.393 --> 00:15:39.428
  • And so i found in god alone, my rich, my full supply."
  • 00:15:39.428 --> 00:15:47.369
  • Fourth, and above all,
  • 00:15:47.870 --> 00:15:49.405
  • The most encouraging thing about storms is this:
  • 00:15:49.405 --> 00:15:52.875
  • God will deliver us through the storm. trust in him.
  • 00:15:52.875 --> 00:15:58.580
  • Now think about this.
  • 00:15:59.081 --> 00:16:00.716
  • If indeed god has caused or allowed a storm into my life,
  • 00:16:01.884 --> 00:16:06.588
  • If indeed storms are the way
  • 00:16:07.189 --> 00:16:08.457
  • That i grow in my relationship with god,
  • 00:16:08.457 --> 00:16:11.460
  • Is it any wonder that god refuses to exempt us from storms
  • 00:16:12.594 --> 00:16:17.900
  • Or that he refuses in most instances
  • 00:16:18.700 --> 00:16:19.968
  • To even deliver us out of the storm?
  • 00:16:19.968 --> 00:16:23.038
  • You know, we spend so much time trying to prepare ourself
  • 00:16:24.173 --> 00:16:26.975
  • To keep from having to go through a difficulty,
  • 00:16:26.975 --> 00:16:29.912
  • Or we exert so much energy
  • 00:16:29.912 --> 00:16:31.513
  • When we're in the middle of a storm.
  • 00:16:31.513 --> 00:16:32.948
  • "lord, take me out of this! take me out of this!"
  • 00:16:32.948 --> 00:16:36.485
  • Have you noticed how rarely
  • 00:16:36.485 --> 00:16:37.619
  • He ever takes us out of the storm?
  • 00:16:37.619 --> 00:16:39.822
  • His plan is not to take us out of the storm,
  • 00:16:39.822 --> 00:16:42.558
  • It is to lead us through the storm,
  • 00:16:42.558 --> 00:16:45.928
  • Safely to the other side.
  • 00:16:45.928 --> 00:16:48.397
  • Listen to the words of isaiah 43:2,
  • 00:16:48.397 --> 00:16:51.533
  • And notice the repetition of the word through.
  • 00:16:51.533 --> 00:16:56.305
  • When you pass through the waters, i will be with you.
  • 00:16:56.305 --> 00:17:01.543
  • And through the rivers, they will not overflow you.
  • 00:17:02.578 --> 00:17:06.148
  • When you walk through the fire, you will not be scorched
  • 00:17:06.148 --> 00:17:10.686
  • Nor will the flame burn you.
  • 00:17:10.686 --> 00:17:13.789
  • God is with you through the chemotherapy.
  • 00:17:14.656 --> 00:17:18.760
  • He's with you through the weeks of unemployment.
  • 00:17:19.728 --> 00:17:23.031
  • He is with you through the desertion of a close friend.
  • 00:17:24.133 --> 00:17:27.836
  • He's with you through the death of a loved one.
  • 00:17:28.837 --> 00:17:32.975
  • You know, one famous pastor wrote
  • 00:17:32.975 --> 00:17:36.211
  • In the margin of his bible, these words,
  • 00:17:36.211 --> 00:17:39.148
  • "we are far more secure in the storm with jesus in our boat
  • 00:17:39.148 --> 00:17:44.419
  • Than we will ever be on the shore without him."
  • 00:17:45.354 --> 00:17:48.991
  • If you're a christian, jesus is in the boat with you
  • 00:17:50.025 --> 00:17:54.229
  • And he will see you through the storm.
  • 00:17:54.229 --> 00:17:57.599
  • I remember talking to a friend,
  • 00:17:57.599 --> 00:17:59.468
  • His company was going through a massive reorganization.
  • 00:17:59.468 --> 00:18:03.005
  • He said he wasn't sure that he would even have a job
  • 00:18:03.005 --> 00:18:05.507
  • In the next three months.
  • 00:18:05.507 --> 00:18:07.442
  • The uncertainty was causing turmoil in his life
  • 00:18:07.442 --> 00:18:10.212
  • And in his family's life.
  • 00:18:10.212 --> 00:18:11.280
  • And he said,
  • 00:18:11.280 --> 00:18:12.781
  • "robert, if god would just tell me that in three months
  • 00:18:12.781 --> 00:18:17.119
  • There was light at the end of the tunnel,
  • 00:18:17.119 --> 00:18:20.255
  • Or if he would tell me now,
  • 00:18:20.255 --> 00:18:21.690
  • 'you're going to have to fight five different monsters
  • 00:18:21.690 --> 00:18:24.193
  • While you're in this tunnel, but eventually you'll succeed
  • 00:18:24.193 --> 00:18:26.862
  • And make it to the other side,'
  • 00:18:26.862 --> 00:18:28.330
  • If god would tell me that, i could go through this."
  • 00:18:28.330 --> 00:18:31.633
  • Well, the fact is god has told us that.
  • 00:18:31.633 --> 00:18:34.703
  • He has told us that there is light at the end of the tunnel.
  • 00:18:34.703 --> 00:18:38.607
  • He's told us that beyond the storm
  • 00:18:38.607 --> 00:18:42.311
  • There is a shore of safety.
  • 00:18:42.311 --> 00:18:45.113
  • Let me show you where that is in the bible.
  • 00:18:46.048 --> 00:18:48.483
  • If you don't get anything else out of the sermon today,
  • 00:18:48.483 --> 00:18:50.886
  • I think you're going to be encouraged by this.
  • 00:18:50.886 --> 00:18:52.421
  • Turn over to hebrews 6 for just a moment.
  • 00:18:52.421 --> 00:18:55.924
  • Hebrews 6.
  • 00:18:55.924 --> 00:18:57.826
  • This is one of the greatest truths
  • 00:18:57.826 --> 00:18:59.661
  • I've ever seen in scripture.
  • 00:18:59.661 --> 00:19:01.997
  • Verses 18 to 20.
  • 00:19:01.997 --> 00:19:04.066
  • In order that by two unchangeable things
  • 00:19:04.066 --> 00:19:07.236
  • In which it is impossible for god to lie
  • 00:19:07.236 --> 00:19:10.239
  • We may have strong encouragement.
  • 00:19:10.239 --> 00:19:12.474
  • We who have fled for refuge
  • 00:19:12.474 --> 00:19:14.610
  • In laying hold of the hope that is before us.
  • 00:19:14.610 --> 00:19:18.146
  • This hope we have as an anchor of the soul,
  • 00:19:18.146 --> 00:19:22.618
  • A hope, both sure and steadfast,
  • 00:19:22.618 --> 00:19:25.554
  • And the one which enters within the veil
  • 00:19:25.554 --> 00:19:28.223
  • Where jesus has entered as a forerunner for us,
  • 00:19:28.223 --> 00:19:32.961
  • Having become a high priest forever,
  • 00:19:32.961 --> 00:19:35.697
  • According to the order of melchizedek.
  • 00:19:35.697 --> 00:19:38.634
  • Now, someday when we study hebrews,
  • 00:19:38.634 --> 00:19:40.235
  • We'll talk about what all of this means.
  • 00:19:40.235 --> 00:19:42.204
  • But there are two things i want you to see in these verses.
  • 00:19:42.204 --> 00:19:45.207
  • Two words that are used to describe jesus.
  • 00:19:45.207 --> 00:19:48.277
  • First of all, he is called the anchor.
  • 00:19:48.277 --> 00:19:51.880
  • And secondly, he is called the forerunner.
  • 00:19:51.880 --> 00:19:55.617
  • The forerunner.
  • 00:19:55.617 --> 00:19:57.486
  • Let me tell you why that applies to you and me today.
  • 00:19:57.486 --> 00:20:00.889
  • In the mediterranean sea,
  • 00:20:01.456 --> 00:20:03.625
  • There are all kinds of different harbors
  • 00:20:03.625 --> 00:20:05.927
  • In which boats would land,
  • 00:20:05.927 --> 00:20:08.196
  • But every harbor in the mediterranean sea
  • 00:20:08.196 --> 00:20:11.733
  • Is laced with rocks,
  • 00:20:11.733 --> 00:20:14.336
  • Making the most dangerous time of a ship's journey
  • 00:20:14.336 --> 00:20:17.839
  • When it was trying to go ashore.
  • 00:20:17.839 --> 00:20:19.508
  • Because as it would enter the harbor,
  • 00:20:19.508 --> 00:20:21.343
  • It had to navigate between those rocks
  • 00:20:21.343 --> 00:20:23.945
  • And a sudden gust of wind could push the boat
  • 00:20:23.945 --> 00:20:26.882
  • Up against the rock and cause it to sink.
  • 00:20:26.882 --> 00:20:29.851
  • But in every shore there was what was called the anchor rock
  • 00:20:31.019 --> 00:20:35.757
  • That was near the shore itself.
  • 00:20:36.391 --> 00:20:37.759
  • The anchor rock was the large immovable rock.
  • 00:20:37.759 --> 00:20:41.430
  • You know, when we think of an anchor,
  • 00:20:41.430 --> 00:20:42.831
  • We think of a big piece of iron
  • 00:20:42.831 --> 00:20:44.399
  • That a ship drops off its side to keep it in place.
  • 00:20:44.399 --> 00:20:47.369
  • But in biblical times, the anchor was the large rock
  • 00:20:47.369 --> 00:20:51.473
  • That was near the shore in any harbor.
  • 00:20:51.473 --> 00:20:53.875
  • And so as a boat was getting ready to enter into the harbor
  • 00:20:53.875 --> 00:20:57.713
  • On its way to shore,
  • 00:20:57.713 --> 00:20:59.348
  • A crew member, called the forerunner,
  • 00:20:59.348 --> 00:21:02.551
  • Would get out of the main boat into a smaller boat.
  • 00:21:02.551 --> 00:21:05.420
  • He would take a line from the main boat
  • 00:21:05.420 --> 00:21:07.956
  • And he would go on shore
  • 00:21:07.956 --> 00:21:10.158
  • And he would attach that line to the anchor rock.
  • 00:21:10.158 --> 00:21:14.596
  • And once that boat was tied to the anchor rock,
  • 00:21:14.596 --> 00:21:17.833
  • Then it could be pulled safely to the shore.
  • 00:21:17.833 --> 00:21:21.336
  • Now notice what jesus is called.
  • 00:21:21.970 --> 00:21:24.840
  • He is called our forerunner.
  • 00:21:24.840 --> 00:21:28.210
  • He has gone on ahead of us.
  • 00:21:28.210 --> 00:21:30.612
  • He has made it through this world successfully.
  • 00:21:30.612 --> 00:21:33.248
  • He has navigated the rocks, if you will,
  • 00:21:33.248 --> 00:21:35.484
  • And now he is onshore.
  • 00:21:35.484 --> 00:21:37.285
  • He is beyond the veil. he is in heaven right now.
  • 00:21:37.285 --> 00:21:41.757
  • He is our forerunner, but he is also our anchor.
  • 00:21:41.757 --> 00:21:47.028
  • If we are in christ,
  • 00:21:47.496 --> 00:21:49.131
  • We are attached to jesus christ and he is in heaven.
  • 00:21:49.131 --> 00:21:53.769
  • He is pulling us through this life,
  • 00:21:53.769 --> 00:21:56.204
  • Helping us navigate the rocks,
  • 00:21:56.204 --> 00:21:59.274
  • Making sure that we make it safely to the other side.
  • 00:21:59.274 --> 00:22:04.679
  • Isn't that a great truth?
  • 00:22:05.247 --> 00:22:07.382
  • That's why jesus said,
  • 00:22:07.382 --> 00:22:09.651
  • "i will not leave you as orphans in this world.
  • 00:22:09.651 --> 00:22:14.122
