Build a Boat!

Listen to this blog.

When the Son of Man appears, things will be just as they were when Noah lived.  People were eating, drinking, and getting married right up to the day the flood came and Noah went into the big boat.

They didn't know anything was happening until the flood came and swept them all away. This is how it will be when the Son of Man appears. Two men will be in the same field, but only one will be taken. The other will be left.  Two women will be together grinding grain, but only one will be taken. The other will be left.  So be on your guard! You don't know when your Lord will come.

Matthew 24:37-42

It seems that for many years Noah didn't know exactly when the Flood would come, but he patiently built the Ark because he knew the Flood was coming. The people who lived on the earth at the same time Noah was alive did not see the coming destruction. All they saw was a "crazy man" building a huge boat on dry land.

Noah prepared for the Flood while the world continued to party!

Jesus clearly says that when the End comes it will be like it was in the days of Noah. We do not know the day or the hour, but from all the signs it appears the End is very near.

So when the world invites you to be part of their non-stop party you might want to say, "I don't have time to party, I have to build a boat!"

In these last days building your boat is putting your hand to the task God places in front of you every day. Actually, Jesus Himself is the Ark that will rescue us from this world. This time instead of rain, the fire will fall and we will be carried away to Glory!
