Kirk Cameron Says God Sends Hurricanes to Remind Us of His 'Immense Power'

Actor turned evangelist Kirk Cameron, known for his role in the ABC sitcom “Growing Pains,” said God sends hurricanes to remind people of his “immense power.”

In a Facebook Live video posted Thursday, Cameron wondered aloud if it’s just a coincidence that Hurricane Harvey left the costliest damage in U.S. history and Hurricane Irma now ranks among the strongest Atlantic-basin storms in recorded history.

He said it “could be something much more than” just happenstance.

“This is not Mother Nature in a bad mood. This is a spectacular display of God’s immense power,” Cameron said, adding:

“When he puts his power on display, it’s never without reason. There’s a purpose. And we may not always understand what that purpose is, but we know it’s not random and we know that weather is sent to cause us to respond to God in humility, awe, and repentance.”

Cameron went on to say God is the “Lord of the wind and the waves,” a reference to Matthew 8:23-27, when Jesus calmed a harsh storm for his scared disciples.

Storms like Harvey and Irma, the actor said, should serve as a reminder that God “supplies our life, breath, and everything else, so that you and I reach out to him.”

He encouraged parents to share that perspective with their children, too:

“Remind them that God is the blessed controller of all things. ... He is the one who gives us peace, security and strength in the midst of the storm and that he uses this to point us to him and to his care for us.”

On the other side of the political divide, “Mother!” star Jennifer Lawrence said the recent hurricanes are Mother Nature’s “wrath” against Americans for voting President Donald Trump into the White House.

Lawrence started by saying climate change is the result of human activity, yet “we continue to ignore it, and the only voice that we really have is through voting.”

“And we voted, and it was really startling,” she continued. “You know, you’re watching these hurricanes now, and it’s really hard, especially while promoting this movie, not to, not to feel Mother Nature’s rage, or wrath.”

Uh Yeah.  Like God will break your leg to teach you something.  God made you sick to show you how He loves you.    Hmmm. Spiritual stupidity.   God is in control.  This is heresy.  God is Sovereign over all creation but He is not in control in the Earth.  We are...You can look at it as;  God owns the store, and He installed US as managers.  We have dominion in the Earth.

Genesis 1:28

God blessed them: God said to them, “Be fruitful, multiply, fill the earth and subdue it. Rule over the fish in the sea, the birds in the air and every living creature that crawls on the earth.”

Psalm 8:4-9 (CJB)

^4 (3) When I look at your heavens, the work of your fingers,
the moon and stars that you set in place —
^5 (4) what are mere mortals, that you concern yourself with them;
humans, that you watch over them with such care?

^6 (5) You made him but little lower than the angels,
you crowned him with glory and honor,
^7 (6) you had him rule what your hands made,
you put everything under his feet —
^8 (7) sheep and oxen, all of them,
also the animals in the wilds,
^9 (8) the birds in the air, the fish in the sea,
whatever passes through the paths of the seas.

Psalm 115:16 (CJB)

¹⁶ Heaven belongs to Adonai,
but the earth he has given to humankind.

Does anyone here believe that God was just blowing hot air when He said this?  I think not.   God does not break your leg to teach you something.  God does not send killer hurricanes to show off.  Satan is the author of sickness and death.  Destruction will fit into that as well.   That's one of the reasons Jesus came to Earth.

Hebrews 2:14-15(CJB)

¹⁴ Therefore, since the children share a common physical nature as human beings, he became like them and shared that same human nature; so that by his death he might render ineffective the one who had power over death (that is, the Adversary) ¹⁵ and thus set free those who had been in bondage all their lives because of their fear of death.

So as having dominion in the Earth, what is our responsibility?

What did Jesus do?   Mark 4:39

He awoke, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, “Quiet! Be still!” The wind subsided, and there was a dead calm.

What did Jesus do?    John 5:19

Therefore, Yeshua said this to them: “Yes, indeed! I tell you that the Son cannot do anything on his own, but only what he sees the Father doing; whatever the Father does, the Son does too.

 

What do we do?   Jesus did what He saw the Father do, We do what we see Jesus do. 

 

Satan caused the storms, Satan caused the earthquakes, Satan causes tornadoes. Satan causes cancer. Satan causes the fighting between you and your mate.  Satan is the author of sickness and death.   You have dominion in the Earth.  YOU take dominion in your part of the world.  If you live in the hurricane path, set up a bloodline around your property and forbid any destruction inside that barrier.  Command the storm to collapse.  I have seen, several times, people command a storm to stay off their property.  I saw the rain come up to the edge of the property line and stop.  On the other side of the property the rain resumed.   WE HAVE DOMINION in the Earth.   Use it.
