A Demonic Wind

Ive been listening to the album Mark by Michael Card.  There is a song on the the album title "A Great Wind, a Great Calm, a Great Fear”.  In this song there is reference to the storm that comes on the Jesus and the Disciples as they cross the Sea of Galilee.  Michael puts forth the idea that the storm is of a Demonic Nature.  This is something I had never considered but he makes some very good points.


First a number the disciples were fishermen by trade.



The apprenent purpose of the crossing is to confront the man possessed by the Legion of demons.


When Christ awakes and silences the storm the words recorded are the same he uses to silence demons.


Since I’ve usually viewed these two accounts as separate I had never considered the thought that they were linked.
