And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon the earth; and the ark went upon the face of the waters.
Genesis 7:18
MESSAGE
You are only saved and secured in God’s Ark of salvation I.e. in Jesus. Everything outside of Noah’s Ark perished with the flood of judgement. All that man’s pride, the inventions of the time, the great architecture, and everything you can think about was wiped out.
But God preserved Noah and his family in the Ark. Despite the overwhelming flood upon the earth, the Ark went upon the face of the water but never sank.
These are extremely dangerous times in history, and I believe we are at the tail ends of the last times. The events of the day are pointers to only one fact, “safety is of the Lord” (Proverbs 21:31).
Nowhere is safe but under the shadow of the Almighty (Psalms 91:1). God’s word to you today is clearly saying that you are only safe in His Ark.
How do we keep our children away from the perversion and immorality of this age? Many children are pains in the hearts of their parents. Show them the way of salvation. Teach your children in the way of the Lord.
In Matthew 24, the Lord gave us a list of events leading to the end of times. Many of these events have been fulfilled right in our faces. Are you paying attention at all to all the trends in our nations? Only those hiding in His ark will be saved.
We must leave the religious lifestyle of this age and face the fact. If you don’t want to be corrupted by the flattery of this present religious age, you must know your God (Daniel 11:32). You must stand your ground earnestly contending for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints (Jude 1:3).
The ways of our fathers are not outdated, their God has not changed. Only that we have removed the ancient landmarks of the faith set by our fathers (Proverbs 22:28).
We have refused to walk in the ancient and old ways in which God promised to bless those who do. People are not getting saved the old way, people don’t love and serve God anymore the old way. Yet only in His Ark of salvation is safety. Let us leave denominationalism asides because in the Ark of salvation is no denomination but a throng of blood-washed saints (Jeremiah 6:16).
Are you already in the ark? Stay there don’t jump out. Do not remember anything you might have left behind, Remember Lot’s wife (Luke 17:32).
I appeal to sinners to join the Ark, the door is opened. It is in the Ark of salvation that you are guaranteed eternal safety. Do not linger in this world upon which judgement shall fall. Call upon the name of the Lord and be saved. (Romans 10:13).
REFLECTION
For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape.
1 Thessalonians 5:3
Do not be deceived by the false peace and safety the world preaches. Safety and Peace can only be found in Jesus Christ.
PRAYER
Father, please keep me and my family in You in these perilousl times.
