They Argued against going, there were several reasons why the use of constraint was necessary.
Matt 4
The disciples were caught up in the excitement Christ had to send them across the lake and disperse the crowd in order to calm the disciples and keep them from making a serious mistake.
The Consecration of Jesus
The Grace for Personal Preparation:
He needed to be renewed and strengthened .
He was physically Exhausted.
Its times in our lives that when we are tiered its not a good time to go to the beach but its time to pray
He needed to recover a clear perspective of His mission, He was mentally exhausted His mind was tired.
He needed to be charged with God’s power and with singleness of heart to do God’s will.
So much power had gone out of Him He was Spiritually Drained.
Christ knew that they would be fighting a storm.
And having to strain against the storm and having to fight for survival would help calm the excitement
Concern of Christ
Now, you know that all of us have troubles in this world.
And our Lord here was not showing off when He walked on water.
It certainly wasn’t a publicity stunt.
He wasn’t merely demonstrating His power.
But, you know, every miracle that Jesus gave, every miracle that Jesus performed, had a deeper lesson than the miracle itself.
It was not only a demonstration of His power, but it was a declaration of His wisdom and His plan for us.
I think it was G. Campbell Morgan that said, “Every parable that Jesus taught was a miracle of instruction, and every miracle that Jesus performed was a parable for our instruction.”
Now, that does not mean,
when I say that the miracle was a parable, that I believe the miracle did not happen.
Indeed, it happened.
But there is a lesson in this miracle for us to learn.
And that’s what I want us to see tonight as we look at this particular message: “How to Get On Top of Your Troubles.”
