Trusting
During the Storm - Part 1
THE ABSENCE OF TRUST Matthew
8:23-27 Print this Bible Study
STIMULATE
** One of the principles we have stressed at our Tuesday night Bible Study
is that we should always be "Thinking Biblically" as
we encounter the events of our life each day. In any given week, our prayer
life can be busy with many requests that came out of the very challenging
events which have occurred in the lives of our brothers and sisters in
Christ.
MOTIVATE
** If we are always "Thinking Biblically" we will find
ourselves trusting the Lord no matter what happens! In June of 1995 the
Lord gave Beverly and me a tremendous opportunity to trust Him. After
one of our visits to Sedona, Beverly was hospitalized for a week because
of a parasite that she acquired from the water in the Phoenix airport.
The resulting trauma to her body gave us great cause to trust the Lord.
On Tuesday night of that week, at 1:00 am, I found it difficult to sleep
so I spent some time talking to the Lord about our next area of study.
That is when the Lord impressed on my heart to study a marvelous truth
proclaimed throughout the Scriptures, "Trusting During the Storm".
Over the next 4 weeks we will learn together from this four part series
as it will show us:
THE ABSENCE OF TRUST - Matthew 8:23-27
HALF-HEARTED TRUST - Matthew 14:22-33
TRUSTING WITH ALL MY HEART - Acts 27:18-25
THE PROMISES OF GOD - Selected Scriptures
For today, please join me in Matthew's gospel. In chapter eight, verses
23-27, we will meet the "O ye of little faith" group (KJV) that
most often displayed "The Absence of Trust".
