GOD: Our Ark Of Safety
126th BDS – 5/23/2024
Scripture Reference: Genesis 6:3, 5-7, 11-14, Genesis 7:1
In these passages of Scripture, GOD looked at all that He had created and it disappointed Him to the point of sadness. Violence had covered the whole Earth, the hearts of mankind were evil and corrupted beyond repair, lawlessness plagued every corner and crevice. GOD had grown tired and decided to destroy everything that He had created with the exception of 8 souls which were Noah and his family because Noah had the favour of GOD on His life. So GOD instructed Noah to build an ark that would keep him, his family and 2 each of every natural creation and creature.. an Ark of Safety.. and everyone and everything else were wiped out by the great flood that filled the Earth. Today, our Ark of Safety has returned to Who it should have always rested in from the beginning of Time.. our One True and Living GOD!!!
“Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; Thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance. Selah.”
Psalm 32:7 KJV
Allow Him to do what He does best.. protects His own…
“Trust in him at all times; ye people, Pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah.”
Psalm 62:8 KJV
Our GOD doesn’t have a secret agenda.. so telling Him everything that concerns us is a comforting truth that opens us up to total transparency with Him, because we can absolutely trust Him and Him alone.
“For thou hast been a strength to the poor, a strength to the needy in his distress, a refuge from the storm, a shadow from the heat, when the blast of the terrible ones is as a storm against the wall.”
Isaiah 25:4 KJV
We can be assured that our GOD will meet our every need no matter the situations that we find ourselves in. He is a dependable shelter that will cover us emotionally, physically, naturally and Spiritually without ever failing us even when the intentions of others are meant to bring shame to our names.
Final Thought: “Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness. Behold, all they that were incensed against thee shall be ashamed and confounded: they shall be as nothing; and they that strive with thee shall perish.”
Isaiah 41:10-11 KJV
In a World where your best friend can quickly become your enemy, relationships fall apart, families split over petty arguments, governments care only about their own and the uncertainty of what tomorrow may bring can cause feelings of hopelessness, our GOD promises to be with us and assures us not to fear what we see going on around us. He will give us the strength to get through the hard times, He is more than available to help us if we let Him, He will defend us when the enemy attempts to use others against us and in turn will flip the odds in our favor so that what was meant for evil against us will work out for our good and cause our enemies to wonder why their wicked plans did not succeed while exposing them for all to see the evil nature of their hearts. Run to our GOD, our forever present Ark of Safety!!!
