The disciples of Jesus reacted to the waves in a negative way expecting a negative outcome. They panicked and they were speaking what the devil intended: death. They chose fear instead of faith and Jesus rebuked them for it.
On the other hand, Jesus used His faith and spoke to the storm and it died down. They were amazed that even winds obeyed Him. God created us to have dominion over the elements and anything that endangers our life. I have scattered rain storms many times!
I like what the Bible says here: “Then he stood up and rebuked the wind and waves, and suddenly all was calm.” Jesus stood; that is powerful! Take your stand against the forces of darkness and command them to shut up and they will obey you, in the name of Jesus!
Never forget that Jesus is with you in the boat and that you cannot drown. Whatever cannot kill Jesus cannot kill you if you believe and act appropriately.
PRAY: I command the wind and waves in my life to calm down now, in the Name of Jesus!
PROPHETIC DECLARATION: I stand against every storm in your life and I command them to die, in the Name of Jesus! I rebuke that crisis in your marriage, business, and ministry. You will not drown in that crisis. You are coming out victorious in Jesus Name!!
