Doppler Radar
IllustrationAnalogy★★★★IF YOU drive into the Dallas/Fort Worth Airport from the south side, you’ll see a big, round thing up there. That big, round thing is the Doppler radar. It was built because pilots were not able to see wind shears. In the past, these sudden bursts of wind had been forceful enough to slow down an approaching plane, press it to the ground, and cause an accident. The Doppler radar detects wind shears so that planes, pilots, and passengers can be protected from disaster, from things they can’t see. God has given you a radar to help you because there are things you can’t see. The Word of God is a radar that will save us from disaster if we would only believe it to be true and act accordingly.
The point
Doppler radar detects wind shears pilots cannot see, protecting planes. Similarly, God's Word detects spiritual dangers we cannot perceive, protecting us from disaster.
