Crisis ConvertedSample

Theme: God is mighty. 

Crisis Converted Then:

Yahweh Almighty must never be forgotten. Even though every thought of his exiled people was focused on their oppressors, God draws their attention away from the threat to his power. His people will not rot away in a dungeon. They will not starve. God crafted everything we see. He even whips up the waves of the sea. In his hands rest his people. Fear of the enemy is no longer needed. God holds his people in his able hands. 

Crisis Converted Now:

In the press of daily anxieties, the greatest threat to our faith is to forget God. While treading out tasks on our to-do lists or blindly reacting to bad news, we can easily lose our focus and come to fear what is holding us down. 

But to remember God’s might, to recall that Christ has overcome Sin and Death, to take a moment to ponder God’s creative power that fashioned every single thing we see and even those things we can’t - that prompts comfort not cowering. God is mighty to save and calls us his own. Whom shall we fear?
