What About Hurricanes? Whirlwinds, Warnings and Wisdom…

What About Hurricanes?

The wonders and workings of the weather… and the wisdom needed to understand what God is doing through it and the storms of life (Job 37 ; Nahum 1 ; Jeremiah 25).

Nothing is wasted… nothing!

God has called for a whirlwind for all the nations (Jeremiah 25).

We are being conformed to Jesus.

The Father has chosen us, called us, converted us, commissioned us and conforming us to Jesus.

John 14:31 Jesus said, "That the world may know My love for My Father and that He has given me a commandment, SO I DO..."

When we SEE Jesus we want to see:

His Love [Relational] (compelled)
His Light [Revelation] (clarity)
His Life [Reward] (cause)
His Loyalty [Reliability] (credibility)

Misapplied zeal... (even the greatest acts of zeal, love and loyalty can be mistaken, misguided and tainted with sinful sincerity.) WHY? It's not God's WILL, WAY OR WORK. Illustrated with Peter (14:27-31)

Peter would have died FOR Jesus...

I don't want to be relatable at the expense of being reliable.

Our spirit should be:
Why can't my reliability — be what's relatable?

If I can't transfer my reliability, through my relatability, my relatable thinking has become unreliable.

Don't throw out your reliability to promote your relatability with a world that can't connect, abide and relate to Jesus.

Jesus with the scribes:

We can't violate nor diminish the value of the point and purpose of a passage and its eternal truth to appeal, accept or affirm the demands of the culture.

The word can't mean what it never meant.
