Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. John 14:6
Welcome
Let me start off by telling you that you're not reading this by mistake. Jesus has assigned every single one of these arks, to go out to ones he has chosen to receive them. They will go to his watchman the ones that he knows will Trust and Obey him, even when it's uncomfortable or doesn't make sense yet. They will go to the awaken ones. The ones that know, the world right now is loud, distracted, and comfortable enough to keep people asleep.
It is time to be like Noah. It is time to wake up others and do what God has called you to do. You are called to turn away from what’s pulling you further from Him, even if it’s hard and even if no one else notices.
So put on the full armor of God, really seek him and then listen for his voice instead of drowning it out. You have been chosen to warn people:
Philippians 2:10-11
That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
​
Just like in Noah’s time, not everyone will understand. Some will laugh, some will mock, and some will roll their eyes and even walk away. You're not doing anything wrong, remember that. Also remember you are called to love people well by showing kindness, truth, and grace where you are. So plant the seed anyways, however he has you doing it. That might look like sharing your testimony. Inviting someone to church. Praying for someone in private. Giving when it costs you something. Speaking truth when it would be easier to stay quiet. You may never see what grows from it and that’s okay. Noah didn’t see the rain when he started building either. He just listened, trusted and obeyed. So go plant the seeds.
God has always warned his people before the storms out of mercy, he is trying to prepare us for judgment day. Did you know we are called to judge righteously?
John 7:24
"Do not judge according to appearance, but judge with righteous judgment."
If we say we love God, we should be willing to examine our lives against his commandments as well. We may see where we’ve drifted, where we need repentance, and where we need Jesus to change us. Like Noah, we’re called to trust God, examine our hearts, and obey. This ark is a reminder of all that, and to plant the seeds and let God handle the rest.”

Father this morning I put on the helmet of salvation to guard my mind today. Guard what I think, hear, see and speak and subject every thought to the Lordship of Jesus. Help me to take every thought captive to make it obedient to Christ. | declare today that I have the mind of Christ according to your Word.
BREASTPLATE OF RIGHTEOUSNESS
I put on the breastplate of righteousness to guard my heart, my will and my emotions. It is not my righteousness, but the righteousness of Christ through what He did on the cross. Today I am honored to live out of His righteousness that He places within me. Father protect me from reacting to circumstances and people emotionally. Let me respond with the spirit of Christ and not out of my emotions.
BELT OF TRUTH
Father I put on the belt of truth. Jesus you are the truth-Satan you are a liar. Today I choose to believe in the truth about who God is and who l am in Christ. 1 am a son/daughter of God, joint heirs with Christ. I have been redeemed by the blood of Jesus. I have been filled with the Holy Spirit and today i will live a victorious life according to the word of God which is truth. Father, today give me the discernment to know the difference between right and wrong, truth and error.
PREPARE MY FEET TO RUN WITH THE GOSPEL OF PEACE
Lord, today wherever my feet take me will represent the good news of Jesus. I will use my life to be an expression of Your deep inner peace. Your Word says "beau-tiful are the feet of those who bring good news." Today I will bring the good news of Jesus and the power of what he did on the cross to a dying and hurting world.
SHIELD OF FAITH
Father today take up the shield of faith which will, according to your Word extinguish the flaming arrows of the enemy. The shield will not only stop the flaming arrows, but as choose to stay behind the shield in humility I will be protected from every assault that comes against me. Today declare with my mouth that You, O Lord, are the only true and living God and my faith is in You and You alone.
SWORD OF THE SPIRIT
Lord, today I take up the sword of the Spirit which is the Word of God. It is alive and active and sharper than any two-edged sword. Today I choose to apply the Word of God and its Wisdom to every situation | face. I will hide Your Word in my heart that I might not sin against You. From Your Word I will seek wisdom, discernment, and direction as I seek to do your will. Your Word will be the weapon I deploy to defeat the schemes of the enemy. Lord, I thank You forgiving me the full armor of God which will protect me today. As I put on the armor I seal this act in confidence in Christ and His finished work. I am placing a hedge of protection around myself and my family. I ask that by Your Spirit You guard and protect me so that/ can accomplish all that You ask me to do. Lord, I consider it privilege to love and serve You and I declare with my mouth that there is none like you. I love You with all of my heart; You are a good Father, May my life be pleasing to You. I worship you in spirit and in truth.
