Deep calleth unto deep
Christ faced some very deep spiritual storms
When praying in the garden of Gethsemane
he travailed in deep agony, that his sweat became blood .
Christ faced satan in the wilderness, as he tried to fast, he was tempted, taunted, mocked, if your the Son of God, turn these stones into bread, he could of, he turned the water into wine.
Face to Face with evil, hatred verses God's love.
John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only son, that who so ever believeth in him should not perish but have eternal life.
In heaven there was war with the angles, against those who followed one of God's adorned beautiful ones who betrayed him, and wanted to be God himself.
He as called Lucifer the angle, was beautifully decorated it says with every kind of gem.
What about Jesus, he wore God's glory, and Power, and Majestic Authority
It just wasnt' a decoration of stones.
Greed, just like white collar stuff, not enough, it says, pride in him, came before a fall, as he fell from the heavens, and where did God cast him, the moon, jupiter, or mars, but he in a way, he cast him to rule on this earth, giving people a choice of free decision, to choose either to live a life of Holiness, or wickedness.
It is a mystery, as it says, but one day it will be all understood,
Trying to figure things out with logic, will not pan out, it's like cooking without any food in the pan, because it is spiritual, not humanly
and not easily understood, with all the learning, degrees on the wall, why because only the light of believing in Christ, sheds the truth, into the big bang, and the black hole.
It takes a telescope to view the galaxy, stars, planets, but
It takes faith, and a light to the understanding of the spirit, and not the mind.
Jesus is the light of the world, the way, the truth, and the light.
He is our telescope.
Even the Pope acknowledges there is a devil, and that people could be demon possessed, as exorcisms are done by the Catholic church, using the name of Jesus.
What is deep calleth unto deep.
Like a surfer, going with the board, into the deep waters,
Going into the word, the living waters, with our faith,
Ride the rough waves, or just delight in those heights, of his deep Love.
A mother eagle, drops her young one, so he will learn to fly, but is there to catch him, a training. Maybe God does this with us, let's us either swim in faith, or drown in fear, and panic. Tough lessons, but for our own good, we need to grow up.
To me it seems, the deeper we enter into living for the Lord,
the Lord calls us to enter into a deeper prayer life, in
Faith. Just as Peter stepped out on the waters, it was deep faith at first, and He said, "Lord let me come unto thee,"
Jesus said, come Peter,
Jesus was calling him, to a deeper place in his faith, but Peter saw the wind, and the waves, and started panicking, human as we are, and started to sink, and called out, saying Lord, save me least I perish.
Life is a deep pit sometimes, and we need to get into a deep prayer life, and get deep in faith.
Faith is like an ark, though tossed about.
Christ was sleeping when the storm came around, they panicked and called him to wake up, saying "don't you care that we perish."
I like this, call, they called, Peter called, to save him
Psalm 91:15
Call upon the Lord in the day of trouble, and he shall deliver you.
Deep calleth unto deep,
In deep distress, let's get in touch with God's deep love, for he careth for us. Thinking we could handle things in our own strength, is pride
We need him for he is our life jacket.
Sometimes getting into troubled water's is our own fault, but he is standing in the storm before us,,,,
Oh ye of little faith, Jesus said to Peter,,
