Noah was a preacher of righteousness…

Scripture tells us this…

God told Noah something that He hadn’t really told anyone else…

That He was going to destroy the entire world with a flood…

At the time God told Noah this it had never rained…

Noah believed God…

Noah preached what God had told him – which He hadn’t told anyone else (so Noah had no support in this) – for one hundred and twenty years…

When the flood came the sum total of people who believed his message (apart from himself) was seven (eight including himself)…

He was a preacher of righteousness and through his obedience he condemned the world…

God was clearly pleased with Noah through this commendation which was given to him by scripture – by I believe the Apostle Paul (who I believe wrote Hebrews)…

How would we view Noah?

He preached for one hundred and twenty years and only seven other people believed his message…

But God had spoken to him…

He remained faithful…

He didn’t waver in unbelief – just like Abraham didn’t (who came after him)…

He believed God and he acted – he built – and he preached…

He “got on with it”…

Even though it appears that he “did it alone”…

I am not trying to say that each of us should be loners – not at all…

But I am trying to say that each of us should obey the Lord…

At the end of the day we each “stand and fall” before Him…

If He says to do something – we should do it before Him – in His Presence – knowing that we are standing before Him Alone…

No matter what response we get from people we are to be faithful to the heavenly vision – as the Apostle Paul was…

Even if we have to “go it alone” for periods of our lives…

I’ve found great consolation in the life of Noah from this perspective…

I “stand and fall” before the Lord Alone…

I am happy with this (I’m smiling as I type this)…

This is true contentment and this is the absence of the fear of man…

If anyone is to join me that’s between them and God…

I’m not pushing for it…

I’m content with “me and God” (I’m also content for “me, God and everyone else who will follow – as led by the Lord to follow” 🙂 – Thank You Jesus 🙂 – I feel the joy 🙂  )…

Yes, I’m a part of a local congregation, yes, I’m a part of a local prophetic intercessors group, yes, I have fellowship with everyone who comes across my path – I am open for all this – for anyone who wants to be surrendered to the Lord – but I’m “going on” with the Lord – wherever He’s calling me – and I’m not waiting for others to join me until I follow Him – and I have joy in this – the same joy which I believe Noah had as he was mocked about the preposterousness of God destroying the entire world with a flood…

We are each called to lead in our different ways…

Let’s lead as the Lord leads us…

Praise You Jesus… 🙂
