With a prayer you fed the hungry
With a word You calmed the sea;
Yet how silently You suffered
That the guilty may go free
God does everything through his Word. By his Word he creates out of nothing and reduces evil powers to the nothing from which they came.
Jesus exercised his power over creation and evil through various miracles simply by speaking. At his words demons obey, waves obey and the human body obeys (even when dead).
But for us he stopped speaking... and the waves crashed over him as a result.
But...
"With a shout you rose victorious"
("You're the Word of God the Father" by Stuart Townend and Keith Getty)
