The Best Christmas Ever: Mighty God

Best Christmas Ever

MIGHTY GOD

Pastor Hope Flask

December 14, 2025

Main Scriptures: Mark 4:35-41

Additional Scriptures: Jeremiah 32:17, Hebrews 12:21, Job 23:15, Isaiah 6:5, 25:4, 1 Samuel 17:45-47, Zephaniah 3:17, Nahum 1:3, Psalms 27:5, 61:3-4, 91:1-2, 107:29

POINTS:

  • God is omniscient; God knows everything.

  • God is omnipresent; God is everywhere.

  • God is omnipotent; God can do anything.

  • Fixers will connect with the Mighty God aspect of Jesus’ character but miss His tenderness and compassion.

  • Feelers connect with the God who daily counsels us because they can easily ignore the God whose power tells the sun where to stand every day.

  • The power of Christ is caring power, and the care of Christ is powerful caring.

  • “Quiet, be still,” is more accurately translated as “shut up and stay shut up”.

  • Nothing is a match for Jesus.

  • Jesus isn’t a man of great power; Jesus is God of great power.

  • Sometimes God’s solution to our problem is more terrifying than the problem.

  • We all think sinking is incompatible with Jesus’ love.

  • We all draw these inferred conclusions about Jesus. And the most common one is that if God cares, He wouldn’t let bad things happen to us.

  • 4 ways to practically internalize that our God is a mighty God:

  1. Practice the power of focus.

  2. Think about Jesus’ death.

  3. Think about Jesus in His word.

  4. Put our faith in the right place.

  • Let your “Ah” open your eyes to Jesus, who is not just the baby in a manger, but the Lord of the storm.
