"And they came to him, and awoke him, saying, Master, master, we perish. Then he arose, and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water: and they ceased, and there was a calm" (Luke 8:24).

As human beings we are all involved in a soul journey. The journey path is full of all sorts of stronghold and obstacles that are planted there by the enemy to prevent us from reaching our desired destination. Our preferred desired soul destination is God's eternal life kingdom. And our only way for overcoming all enemy's stronghold and obstacles that are in the way of us entering God's eternal life kingdom is Christ Jesus, who is the way, truth and life itself (John 14:6).

Jesus Christ as the only way is our Captain of life and holy navigator. He came from heaven to earth to deliver us from the ocean of afflictions and get us on board of His life boat. Jesus boat can never sink or capsize no matter how heavy the storm targeted at it because every storm, principalities and powers are subject to His commanding voice and dominion authority. And as long as we continually focus our eyes on Christ and not on the raging storm, we will be still and remain in His perfect rest in the midst of all storms.

The storm, that we face after we have entered King Jesus's boat cannot cause us any spiritual or natural damage. It is nothing but a distraction strategy by the already defeated enemy to get us into shifting our focus away from Christ the author and finisher of our faith back to the seemingly looking world problems (Hebrews 12:1-3). In Christ, we have God's perfect solutions and have become problems free in all realms and dominion. Therefore, any seemingly looking problems is no longer our reality but an illusion, which will in time soon disappear!

The boat of Christ is a supernatural boat. And once we enter into it, the enemy whose main warfare tactics is to do with focusing our attention on the natural using fear, will surely try us left, right and centre with all manner of storms in order to scare us into jumping off the boat back into his sea of afflictions. The enemy knows that as long as we remain in Jesus's boat no storm or sea of affliction can stand in the way of the manifestation of God's spiritual pre-approved divine solutions for our lives. God of course has not given us the spirit of fear (2 Timothy 1:7). And no matter how heavy the storm, it is important we live by faith in Christ and never succumb to the enemy's fear tactics.

Our attention must be on Christ at all times. And no matter how heavy the storm we end up facing once we have entered King Jesus's life boat, it is important, that we continually trust in His divine super power, which is above all powers. He is able to still every storm and bring everything concerning your life into perfect order. Therefore, be still in Master Jesus's life boat and enjoy the ride! Keep your eyes continually focused on Christ and not on the raging storm. Always believe, that as long as you remain in Jesus's boat, you will be safe and secure, guaranteed to accomplish God's entire purpose for your soul and bound to make it all the way to your desired eternal life destination.

"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me" (John 14:6).
