Summary: If we will abide in Christ as the sailors stayed with the ship that Paul was shipwrecked in, God will provide a way for us to escape destruction.

You may seem over your head at times – swim on!

You may get weak and weary but – swim on!

You may get discouraged – hang on to the Lord and don’t let go! Keep on swimming!

You may reach the shore feeling as though you have been through the greatest storm that life could give to you but you will make it through!

Grab on to a piece of the ship! Hold on to the mast! Grab a piece of wood as it floats by!

God will not let you go down for the count! He will always provide a way!

God will send a piece of the ship to keep you afloat! If there isn’t a piece of the ship around for you to hold onto, then God has the power to let you walk on the water like Peter did if you just keep your eyes on Jesus.

God will bring His church through and not one soul will be lost – not one. Every one who stays in the ship and listens to the voice of God will be saved!

Folks, our greatest victories are ahead! God is bringing us through to be a glorious church without spot or wrinkle, washed in the Blood of the Lamb!

God has a work for us to do and no devil in hell nor people with the wrong spirit will be able to sink God’s church for He will not allow it to be lost!

There are souls we must reach and people who need healing that we must pray for. We will shake off the serpent, the Devil, into the fire of the Holy Spirit and he will slither away in torment for God has determined that the church will be powerful, pure and holy and that we will accomplish what God has given for us to do.

The people on that island looked at Paul as though he was a god because the snake had no power over him.

I want you to know that your family, friends, classmates, etc., will look at you and see Jesus in you. They will know that God is with you and they will marvel at the blessings and the power of God that is manifest in you!

The child of God should be above the trivial matters of this earth for this is not their home. Your sight is set on the streets of gold and the throne room of God our Father and His great majesty in Heaven. You should have an attitude of royalty for you are an adopted child of God. You should lift up your head in the midst of the storm and walk on in faith as though the storm wasn’t there.

I’m not talking about denying the storm but I am talking about looking past it or over it to see the victory that lies just ahead because the storm has no real power over you!

By faith we see the victory!

By faith we will see the sick healed!

By faith we will see those who are dead in sin, raised to a new life in Christ!

By faith we will see God perform miracles so that He may be glorified through us!

Thank God, the church, the people of God, who will put their trust and faith in God and obey Him until we reach Heaven’s shore, will live forever!

Romans 8:35-39, "Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, for thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
