Mark 4:35-41 Let us go across to the other side.  Why are you so afraid? Have you still no faith?
Be in unity in the Spirit, be in unity with one another, unity as a nation.  Let the Word of God be your anchor.  God needs us to be united.
Mark 1:27-28
Luke 5:9, 13
He is the god of Now. Swift. Strenuous. Quick- has compassion, Love. He hears us when we pray. (Call on His name) He will help straightway- immediately, forthwith)
Acts 27:9-31 Paul in a storm. (Word from God 22-26) When the storm came He instructed them. Taught them the secrets of the Kingdom. He took them into the storm.
1. They ignored Paul and kept sailing.
2. But not for long.
3. When neither sun nor stars for may days.
4. When things start getting really bad, that’s your moment (if you will only listen to the voice of God and the voice of Reason.
Ps.91:1 You’re going to make it.
It’s time to grow up. Sometimes He takes everything you depend on from  you. 
If you call yourself a child of God, It is time.
Why are you afraid? God is with you and will keep you.  Peace, be still.
God gave you power. Stand , get strong.  Withstand every fiery dart.
What else do you need, says the Lord? Get up NOW and be the church says the Lord.
Stand up and dedicate yourself. Jesus is the only saviour! God holds your tomorrow.  He’s gathering the church of Jesus.
