Which stilleth the noise of the seas, the noise of their waves, and the tumult of the people.
I am reminded of Christ’s calming of the storm on the Sea of Galilee[1]
- He stilled the noise of the seas, and the wind ceased
- He stilled the noise of the waves, and calmed the water
- He stilled the noise of the people, and brought them safely to land
Jesus is a fulfillment of this passage.
He is also a demonstration of it.
- He is aware of our circumstances.
- He is capable of resolving them.
- He is not slack concerning His promises.
Though we are often fearful we will perish, He will bring His people safely to that land beyond.
[1] Mark 4:35-41 (KJV)
And the same day, when the even was come, he saith unto them, Let us pass over unto the other side.
And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.
And there arose a great storm of wind, and the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full.
And he was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: and they awake him, and say unto him, Master, carest thou not that we perish?
And he arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm.
And he said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?
And they feared exceedingly, and said one to another, What manner of man is this, that even the wind and the sea obey him?
