BE ENTHRONED OVER ALL THINGS IV

Shake off your dust; rise up, sit enthroned, Jerusalem. Free yourself from the chains on your neck, Daughter Zion, now a captive.

Isaiah 52:2 NIV

In Mark 4, when the storm arose and the disciples became terrified that the boat was sinking, they woke Jesus and said, “Teacher, don’t you care if we drown?” (Mark 4:38 NIV)

Jesus calmed the storm, but He did not commend them for waking Him. Instead, He asked, “Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?” (Mark 4:40 NIV)

The disciples had not yet understood that their security was not ultimately in the boat—it was in Christ. They trusted the boat more than they trusted the One who was in the boat with them. There was still much they did not understand about who Jesus was and what He had come to accomplish. Jesus Himself told them later: “There is so much more I want to tell you, but you can’t bear it now.” (John 16:12)

Beloved, just as We live for God’s purpose. God does not live for us; we live for Him. In the same way, our senses and our minds exist our purpose, we were not created to live according to the dictates. Stand strong in what Christ has done, irrespective of the fears, tremblings or what our senses tell us. for it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose.”(Philippians 2:12-13)

Therefore, it does not matter how fierce the storm may appear—whether it is financial, marital, relational, physical, or otherwise. We can remain calm and collected because God is the One at work in us. Remember Christ is seated, and we are seated with Him, do not interrupt His rest because of the dictates of our senses as the disciples did on the boat. (Mark 4:40 )

Shake off the dust. Rise up. Sit enthroned.

You are not ruled by the storm. You are seated with the One who rules over all things.

WE PRAY FOR THE GRACE TO SIT ENTHRONED ABOVE ALL THINGS IN JESUS NAME AMEN!

THANK YOU JESUS!
