And they came to Him and awoke Him, saying, “Master, Master, we are perishing!
Then He arose and rebuked the wind and the raging of the water. And they ceased, and there was a calm.
Matthew 21:21-22
So Jesus answered and said to them, “Assuredly, I say to you, if you have faith and do not doubt, you will not only do what was done to the fig tree, but also if you say to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ it will be done. 22 And whatever things you ask in prayer, believing, you will receive.”
When you rebuke the wind in Jesus’ name and the storms ravages FL anyway, will anyone have a basis for saying their faith is not crushed as God was obligated and expected to diminish the storm?
Additionally, are we now going to reason our way to limiting the exegesis and application of that passage to people expecting God to do as they pray with storms instead of trusting Jesus as being the Messiah? Such mishandling of Scripture like what people are doing is the reason some people refuse to evacuate and then die when the storm hits them.
Luke 8:24,

All pray again tonight at 9 pm edt.
