Our Walk and The Winds.
Our walk is a movement taking steps towards a desired destination.
The Walk of a Follower of the Lord Jesus Christ leads to an assured destination called the Eternal Life in the Kingdom of God. The Bibles teaches quite a bit about the WALK of a follower of Jesus Christ. There are some examples of the Old Testament patriarchs who walked with God.Some times during our walk we face many hurdles and problems. The Christian life is compared with a journey and walk, sometimes, on surface of the earth, sometimes on a sea and river, sometimes on a mountain top and sometimes on a battle field. The WIND is an element which God has created in the atmosphere of the earth. It is a necessary element for survival of the creation. But sometimes, winds are naturally out of control of the mankind. Wind is good if it is favorable. But if takes the shape of strong currents and flows without control, it creates disasters also. Only God could calm the strong stormy winds. Mankind has never been able to control it with its supreme technological advance today.
In the Episodes, we will see what the Bible and our experience teaches us as we journey in the life God has given us. There are several references about winds that led to fulfill the purposes of God. Sometimes, the wind is real and at times it is used as an allegorical phrase.
The Bible also talks about 4 winds which exist today. They are Northern, Southern, Western and Eastern winds. These are also called as 4 winds of the earth. It is good to understand this concept not only Biblically but also Culturally and Mythologically. It is because most of the Cultures have some kind of divinity ascribed to wind. These wind Mythologies and experiences both help us understand some interesting facts about their use in their contexts.
The 1-7 Episodes would be based on the following concepts:
Wind parted the sea under Moses. Wind helped Moses to bring out 5 to 6 Million Israelites out of Egypt through the floor of the sea on the other shore. The people walked through the parted walls of water on dry sea bed. Ex.14:21. Wind which brought Birds food for the Israelites on their journey to Promised Land.
The birds were called quails. (Nb.11:31) The estimated number required for the people to eat quails could be around: 20,160,000,000 quails for about 3 million adults. If the cost could be estimated then it should be around @$:1:00 each then the cost comes around 20 Billion Dollars. (2016 Crore Dollars X INRs. 75=151200 (Crore) God fed them because they wanted animal flesh to eat.
Wind which killed Job’s Children by striking the four corners of the house only to collapse on them. Jb.1:18-19 Wind which created a violent storm threatening to break the ship in which Jonah wanted to escape (Jon.1:4) after throwing him over board, and the sea grew calm.Wind which almost drown boat of the disciples of Jesus.(Mt.8:23-27) They shouted, “Lord, save us! We are going to drown.”Wind which caused shipwreck Paul was traveling. Ac.27:4-28:13 Paul warned not to begin but “the centurion, instead of listening to what Paul had said..Followed advice of the pilot and of the owner of the ship… The ship struck, bow stuck, stern broke. Wind which troubles the church regarding Apostolic teachings. Eph.4:14,Jas.1:6
