Let's Go Back to the Bible

“Who can this be?”

When Jesus calmed the storm on the Sea of Galilee, the disciples marveled, “Who can this be, that even the winds and the sea obey Him?” (Matt. 8:27). But, after everything they saw that day, they should have known Jesus was truly Lord of all. Earlier in the day, leprosy obeyed Jesus (8:1-3), then paralysis obeyed Jesus (8:5-13), then fever obeyed Jesus (8:14-15), then demons obeyed Jesus (8:16), and then sicknesses obeyed Jesus (8:16-17). So, when the wind and the waves obeyed Jesus (8:26-27), they were just falling in line with everything else that had obeyed Jesus that day! He is truly “Lord of all” (Acts 10:36)!

So the question today is–“Is He YOUR Lord?” If so, what evidence would there be of such? The leprosy, paralysis, fever, demons, sicknesses, wind and waves obeyed Jesus without any “yeah, but” or any “what if?” or any excuses or any finagling of any kind! There was just immediate compliance! So again, is Jesus YOUR Lord? Or do leprosy, paralysis, fever, demons, sicknesses, wind and waves obey better than you?
