PRACTICAL POINTS FOR DISCUSSION:
1. Having faith in Jesus as LORD and Savior does not mean we won’t experience any storms; but it does give us peace and confidence in the midst of the storm (Matthew 8:23-24).
2. When we know that Jesus is always with us, we will have no reason to be afraid (Matthew 8:25-27).
3. Even demons know who Jesus is and are subject to His power and authority (Matthew 8:28-29).
4. As the Creator, Jesus is sovereign and can do whatever He wants with whoever He wants (Matthew 8:30-32).
5. Unsaved people don’t understand God’s love and grace; therefore, being foolish they reject Him (Matthew 8:33-34; Luke 4:28-29).
