Changing the Atmosphere - Mark 4:31-41

Have you stopped to consider the prevailing atmosphere of your life, family, church, ministry, or locality right now? It is important to understand atmospheres and your ability to change them because Jesus has authorized and empowered you to do so. I have heard it said that Christians are not spiritual thermometers but spiritual thermostats. In other words, you are not merely supposed to detect the spiritual climate as a thermometer detects the existing temperature in a room; you are to change it, imposing the authority of the kingdom of God wherever you go. Start by changing the atmosphere. Keep a spirit of prayer and praise in your life. It creates the right atmosphere around you. Jesus changed the atmosphere in His region. You have the power to change the atmosphere and usher the presence and power of God into your situation, your home, and your church. Wherever he's present, the atmosphere has got to change.
