Yesterday, I told us by the Spirit of God that Heaven is never the goal of Christianity. We didn't get Born Again so that we can MAKE HEAVEN like they used to say. Jesus didn't die so that He can save us from Hell. He came to pay the price to restore the dominion of the Kingdom of God that was once on earth back to us. He came to restore the Authority that Adam had before the fall and much more than this, He has brought us into the God-Head through our Union with Him. This was what made Lucifer to the then known and some angelic beings in a massive rebellion against God. Now to the business of the day.
THE COMING OF JESUS LIKE THE DAYS OF NOAH.
Mt. 24:37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
24:38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark,
24:39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
One of the good weapons of defense in this days and times is THE UNDERSTANDING OF THE TIMES AND SEASONS. The Bible testified concerning the Men of Issachar that they had understanding of the times and season and knew what Israel ought to do therefore, their brethren were at their command. We are living in the days of Noah right now. Before we explore the Days of Noah, let us find out what
THE COMING OF JESUS MEAN
Scripturally, the coming of Jesus mean three things:
A. THE COMING OF JESUS IN US.
B. THE COMING OF JESUS FOR US.
C. THE COMING OF JESUS WITH US.
The coming of Jesus IN us describes Spiritual Maturity. The formation of the character, life and essence of Christ in us. It is full conformation to the FULL STATURE OF CHRIST. Gal. 4:19, Eph. 4:12-16, ROM. 8:29.
The coming of Christ FOR us is popularly called THE RAPTURE. 1 Cor. 15: 51-54.
The coming of Christ WITH us describes the coming of Christ with the Raptured Saints to reign on this Earth politically for 1000years. This will happen after the greatest battle of Armageddon; the battle between light and darkness.
I will do a broadcast on the END TIME later on.The most important of the THREE COMINGS OF CHRIST is THE COMING OF CHRIST IN US. If He didn't come IN you, He cannot come FOR you and if He didn't come FOR you, He cannot come WITH you. This is why Spiritual maturity is very important. This is a Trumpet Call to you.
THE DAYS OF NOAH
Jesus says in Mt. 24:37 'But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be'.
The question is what were the things that happened in the days of Noah that bears resemblance to our days?
The next verse shed some lights on this. 24:38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark,
24:39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Is it any wonder that the Entertainment Industry is almost the most prosperous industry today? Even the Church has been engrossed in the aqua of this End time malady.
God needs NOAHS IN THIS DAYS AND TIME. Those that will see beyond the happenings around. Those that will see into the Mind of God to draw wisdom to tackle the prevalent problems in this days and times. Noah had a foreknowledge of the problem coning on the Earth; A FLOOD capable of wiping out that entire generation. There was no precedent to this.
How was he going to solve this problem?
God said in Gen. 6:14 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.
Noah built the gigantic ark based on REVELATION. When the flood came, he entered into the ark. The same flood that destroyed every living thing was the same one that lifted the Ark up from the Earth.
WHAT DOES THE ARK OF NOAH REPRESENT IN THIS DAYS?
A. The Ark of Noah represents the present day MINISTRY OF JESUS. How do I mean?
Gen. 6:14 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; ROOMS shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.
John 14:1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
14:2 In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
14:3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
The Ark of Noah represents THE HOUSE OF GOD. The word MANY MANSIONS means MANY ROOMS. A little knowledge of different types of buildings tells you that a MANSION is bigger than a HOUSE. In the Ark of Noah, the rooms were PHYSICAL but, in the House of God, the rooms are SPIRITUAL.
The room means a place to function from; a platform for expression.
Notice that no animal attacked another in the Ark of Noah, it means there should be no room for competition in the Body of Christ.
Notice verse three:14:3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. Notice 'where I am, there ye may be also'. Jesus was on Earth when He said this.
The Ark that God expects us to build as a defense in this day and time is in OUR POSITION/PLACE/OFFICE in Christ.
B. The Ark that God expects the Noahs in this days and times is REVELATION. The Revelation(KNOWLEDGE WITH PARTICIPATION) of God that you have is a SURE DEFENSE AGAINST THE RISING FLOOD IN THIS TIME.
The Ark of Noah is THE ARK OF SAFETY.
There is a lesson for us in Hebrews.
Heb. 11:7 By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house; by the which he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by faith.
At least if your ark cannot save everybody in your community, let it be big enough to save YOUR FAMILY.
I will stop here and continue tomorrow.
