Introduction: Have you ever been in a storm? Are you in one right now? You will make it through the storm if Jesus is in your boat! What do you do when you are in a storm?

1. Turbulence with Jesus! (Matt 8:23,24)

“23And when he was entered into a ship, his disciples followed him. 24And, behold, there arose a great tempest in the sea, insomuch that the ship was covered with the waves: but he was asleep!”

At times, when we follow Jesus, we may encounter a tempest – storm.

2. Talk to Jesus! (Matt 8:25)

“And his disciples came to him, and awoke him, saying, Lord, save us: we perish.”

When we have a need, Jesus is there for us, even in a storm. It helps tremendously to tell Jesus! Will you talk to Him now?

3. Triumph in Jesus! (Matt 8:26)

“And he saith unto them, Why are ye fearful, O ye of little faith? Then he arose, and rebuked the winds and the sea; and there was a great calm.”

Faith or fear, which one? Jesus responds to faith! Will you have faith in Him today?

Conclusion: The reason we should turn, talk, trust and triumph in Jesus is because He is in control!

“But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!” (Matt 8:27)
