STANDING ON
Faith is standing upon the word of God. This is basing your calmness and confidence on what God said. You will know a man of faith by his measure of calmness and peace irrespective of the challenging situations he faces. He will not be moved by anything that is happening. Why? He has heard God and that He is enough for him. He is not fearful but calm. In other words, within him, he has overcome the war.
In the scripture we read today is a terrible situation that confronted Paul the apostle and all that were with him on the ship. There was a great storm that had been on for days and weeks. They have faced so much loss of property, wealth, and even confidence. But among them was Paul, he was not joining them to panic and expect death. He was standing on what God said, so he had peace. Because he had heard from God, he concluded, “There shall be no loss of life” (Act 27:22).
Have you heard God speak to you about your situation, either through your Bible reading or your pastor’s message? Friend, that is enough to deliver you (John 8:32). Stand upon this word of God and give up your struggles. God is up to His word. He will not say what he is not able to do, but you can allow or disallow Him by the state of your heart. Stop that fear; tell yourself if he has said it, He is up to it. Take your peace and see the salvation of the Lord. There shall be no loss.
Prayer: Lord, help me to always stand on your word.
“WHEN GOD SPEAKS AND
YOU CAN SEE WHAT HE SAYS, THEN YOU CAN’T DOUBT HIS WORD”
