Rev. Cyril A. Stevens – Sermon 0051A recorded on May 6, 1979 teaching from Luke 8:19-39 – Christ’s Colossal Power.
Pastor Cyril A. Stevens explores the colossal power of Christ as demonstrated through two dramatic encounters in the Gospel of Luke: the stilling of a great storm and the healing of a demon-possessed man. Stevens emphasizes that Jesus possesses total authority over both the natural and spiritual realms, addressing the “generator” or root cause of chaos rather than merely its outward symptoms. By contrasting the panicked exhaustion of the disciples with the absolute peace of God found in a sleeping Savior, Pastor Stevens challenges believers to examine the location and strength of their own faith. Ultimately, Stevens serves a call for individuals to sit at the feet of Jesus and then return to their daily lives to testify to the transformative impact of His divine strength.
