Rain, Rain...

37 As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. 38 For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark; 39 and they knew nothing about what would happen until the flood came and took them all away. That is how it will be at the coming of the Son of Man.
Matthew 24:37-39


"And what a fool, they say
To fast and pray
And what a fool, they say
C’mon it’s been two thousand years
Do you really think He’s coming?
C’mon and just get real.
And remember this verse
“And many, many scoffers will come”…
And when the rain starts falling
It’s too late, It’s too late
And when the rain starts falling
It’s too late, It’s too late."

"As In The Days of Noah"

Noah building the ark with no help except for his immediate family over the course of approximately 100 years was hard to miss! He must've become somewhat of a local draw, where visitors and travelers were probably directed to his site: " Hey, you must go see this local nut-job, Noah and his delusional family - building this gigantic ship in this arid place, and there is no body of water to be found anywhere, he has flipped his lid...says God told him to build it!", the locals would say...laughing at, scorning and scoffing, persecuting Noah and his family. But Noah knew what God told him- the ark is the only sea going vessel Noah ever built, divine direction downloaded to his brain the exact measurements, and the ability to craft this huge boat. It must've occurred to him that there was a reason why the Lord picked him, at that time, in that place, instead of a whole coastal community building out the vessel in a harbor, or other possibilities. It wasn't done this way because it was the only method possible ... the whole event was a sign, hopefully to awaken a generation of people who were cluelessly pursuing meaningless things, worshipping idols, who would possibly repent, and also be spared. But we know the outcome, the so obvious sign of Noah was minimized and ignored by that self absorbed generation, and because of their evil and idolatry, and unrepentant behavior they were swept away.
We are living in such a generation, a time when God is being removed from public places in the name of "separation of church and state" - a demonic tactic, this is the ME generation. The Lord Jesus has told us - warned us - given us the signs- that there will be another Day like that- no ark needed this time. Our safety is found by being squarely in the center of God's heart, and He is calling out His people . Jesus is the ark of the last generation, the worship and works of spreading the Gospel and works of justice is like the construction period of the ark. We are told that there would be scoffers in the last days, and we would be hated and persecuted for our Christian walk, and imitating Jesus in our lives.
It's not rain that will fall this time, but the day is coming, Jesus is coming . His testimony is reliable and true. Make sure your 'ark' is ready!
