Build like Noah did - with Faith in God, Obedience to God and Fear of God

Matthew 24:37-39
37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

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 Noe entered into the ark,

39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.


Revelation 19:7-9New King James Version (NKJV)

Let us be glad and rejoice and give Him glory, for the marriage of the Lamb has come, and His wife has made herself ready.” And to her it was granted to be arrayed in fine linen, clean and bright, for the fine linen is the righteous acts of the saints.

Then he said to me, “Write: ‘Blessed are those who are called to the marriage supper of the Lamb!’” And he said to me, “These are the true sayings of God.”

The marriage of the Lamb has come and the bride has to get ready for the glorious day.

Our King is coming.

Yet so many people are complacent.

We are the terminal generation.

Genesis 6:1-7
6 And it came to pass, when men began to multiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them,

2 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.

3 And the Lord said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.

4 There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown.

5 And God saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually.

6 And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart.

7 And the Lord said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.


The world is coming into the influence of demonic forces.

God is setting a limit. God will be patient as long as He sees any possibility of change.

The Lord is long suffering. But there will come a day when He says enough is enough with human wickedness.

The evil that is in man's heart is there continually.

Gender neutral, no gender identity. Instead of "he" or "she," there's now "ze." That's absolute wickedness in our world now.

2 Timothy 3:1-5
This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.

2 For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,

3 Without natural affection, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, fierce, despisers of those that are good,

4 Traitors, heady, highminded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God;

5 Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such turn away.


Men will be lovers of self.

They will be lovers of money.

They will be disobedient to parents. Parents have abdicated their role as parents.

They will love pleasure instead of loving God. I.e. pleasing yourself.

God is repenting that He had made man in the first place. 

2 Peter 3:6-7
6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:

7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.


Genesis 6:8
8 But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord.

Grace means free, unmerited favour.

Noah was saved because he found grace in the eyes of the Lord, not because he was righteous.

Because you have been saved by grace, you have the potential to save the whole human race.

It only took one man who found grace and he saved the entire human race and animals as well.

Genesis 6:9
These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.

Righteousness is the external manifestations. He was righteous in the sight of God and blameless (internal transformation) in his time. And Noah walked with God. He had a relationship with God. Like Enoch did. Like Noah did.

Genesis 6:13
13 And God said unto Noah, The end of all flesh is come before me; for the earth is filled with violence through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.

Noah became a recipient of divine revelation and vision from God. Jesus said, "My sheep hear My voice and they follow Me."

We have a world out there that needs the gospel message.

Genesis 6:14-22
14 Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.

15 And this is the fashion which thou shalt make it of: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty cubits.

16 A window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou make it.

17 And, behold, I, even I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is the breath of life, from under heaven; and every thing that is in the earth shall die.

18 But with thee will I establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons, and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee.

19 And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep them alive with thee; they shall be male and female.

20 Of fowls after their kind, and of cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after his kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive.

21 And take thou unto thee of all food that is eaten, and thou shalt gather it to thee; and it shall be for food for thee, and for them.

22 Thus did Noah; according to all that God commanded him, so did he.


Noah built only what God told him to build.

Experts built the Titanic and an amateur built the ark.

Go into the presence of God and build what God tells you to build.

Hebrews 11:7
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.

Noah was a man of obedience.

Noah was a man of faith.

He moved with Godly fear.

True faith and true fear are always combined.

The whole world is going be destroyed very soon but I have a separate agenda.

This destruction of the human race is a reality.

If we have genuine faith, we also need to have genuine fear.

2 Peter 2:5
5 And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;
Noah preached righteousness.

He saved the whole human race and the whole animal creations.

You could just save one person for Jesus but you could have saved a whole generation.

Do it with faith, obedience and fear as Noah did and rescue what we can rescue in our generation.

Do what we can do in this end time rescue of the human race and let God do what we cannot do but He can do.
