MFM Daily Devotional 27th September 2026 – Jesus: The Master Over Every Storm

When Jesus and His disciples were on the sea, and there was a storm, and His disciples shouted, “Master, Master, we are perishing,” I like the way Jesus rebuked them after calming the storm. What an insult! The One who, by the words of His mouth, commanded the same sea and the storm into existence, and can, by the blast of His nostrils, dry up both, was in the boat with them, and they were afraid? In the first instance, as we see in Luke 8:22, He was the One who said they should get into the boat and go over to the other side of the lake.

I have a number of questions for you to answer: Did you seek God’s face before you got into that marriage, or that business deal, or that job, or that ministry, or conceived that child? My friend, it is inevitable that there will be a few setbacks in your life because they are your stepping stones to success. Storms of life are the fire which your Creator uses to fine-tune your life and anchor you to Him, the Eternal Rock of Ages.Religion & Belief

What then can the storm be? Is it barrenness in marriage? Is it failure in business? Is it problems in your ministry? Is it infirmity, sickness or disease? Ask Abraham, Elijah, the woman with the issue of blood, Peter, and so on. They had all been through storms, and the only thing that kept them going was their faith and obedience to God.

As in the case of the disciples on the sea, if He has led you into any situation, and a storm arises, He will never leave you nor forsake you. In fact, be of good cheer because He has overcome the world. This is why you must always carry Him along in whatever you do. In fact, NEVER enter a marriage or take any important decision in life without first knowing His will.

Beloved, do a regular audit of your heart and lifestyle to ensure that you are on course. If Jesus is asleep in the boat of your life, He says: “Peace, be still.” Also, ensure that you are always in praise mode. Then rejoice; the Lord is King.
