J.C. Ryle emphasizes the dual nature of Christ as both fully God and fully man, illustrating how His presence does not exempt believers from earthly troubles, as seen in the disciples' fear during the storm.

Ryle reassures that while believers may experience weakness and doubt, Christ's patience and compassion remain steadfast, reminding them that He is always present to calm their storms. The sermon highlights the importance of understanding Christ's power over all creation and His tender care for His followers, especially in their moments of fear and uncertainty.

Francois Fenelon preaches about the limits of our grace being the same as our temptation, emphasizing God's faithfulness in not allowing us to be tempted beyond what we can bear. He encourages trust in God's sovereignty in proportioning suffering to the patience bestowed by Him, likening it to the ebb and flow of the ocean where God sets the boundary for trials. Fenelon highlights the tendency for individuals to feel overwhelmed by future trials and the grace prepared to meet them, but reassures that God is always in control, ensuring that the waves of life will not engulf us beyond what we can handle.

Charles E. Cowman preaches about the miraculous crossing of the Red Sea by the children of Israel, emphasizing the power of God to make a way where there seems to be no way. He encourages believers to trust in God's command, even in the face of seemingly insurmountable obstacles, knowing that God will provide a path to freedom and victory. Cowman reminds the congregation that God's presence is greater than any storm or barrier, and that obedience to His leading will lead to a place of unknown blessings and praises.
