Board that Ark !
Gen chapter 7 ver 1
"And the Lord said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation."
God invites us into His dwelling. If we accept and enter, we are protected against the storms of life. No matter how perilous the waves, we ride on top and do not drown.
In this world today, the ark is as real as it was during Noah's time. Today, we live in a society that has turned away from God. We truly deserve another flood of God’s wrath, but because He loves “fallen man” He provided us with an “ark” into which we likewise could enter. If we think this is imagination, we need to think again. The recent pandemic, Tsunamis, world disasters are all indicators that we need to accept Gods invitation and enter that ark before it is too late. But where us it?
That ark is our Lord Jesus Himself. Jesus provides that ark to give us safety, peace and security. He has sent personal invitations to all of us to board.
"Come now, let us reason together, says the Lord: though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red like crimson, they shall become like wool."
"Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”
"The Spirit and the Bride say, “Come.” And let the one who hears say, “Come.” And let the one who is thirsty come; let the one who desires take the water of life without price."
When we are travelling how anxiously we await the call to board our flight, train or bus. If we don't board we are left behind. The craft does not wait.
How much more do we want our God to wait?
