Entering Noah’s Ark
(week 03/05)
Olubi Johnson
We are living in a time when God’s judgment and glory are about to be released simultaneously in the Church in an unprecedented manner.
The Lord is about to come, in us in glory, power and judgement, suddenly to His temple with judgement and glory and it will be similar to the time of Noah.
Matthew 24:37-40 NKJV: But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be. 38 For as in the days before the flood, they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, 39 and did not know until the flood came and took them all away, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.
Malachi 3:1-2 NKJV: And the Lord, whom you seek, Will suddenly come to His temple, 2 “But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears?
2 Thessalonians 1:10 NKJV: when He comes, in that Day, to be glorified in His saints and to be admired among all those who believe,
The flood of judgment that drowned the world was the same flood that lifted up Noah and those that were with him in the Ark.
Genesis 7:17 NKJV: The waters increased and lifted up the ark, and it rose high above the earth.
So in this time a spiritual Ark has been prepared for us to take refuge in before the flood starts.
This spiritual ark is the perfect or mature or developed love of God.
The physical Ark had dimensions of 300 cubits for its length, 50 cubits for its width and 30 cubits for its height.
Genesis 6:13-16 NKJV: And God said to Noah, “The end of all flesh has come before Me, for the earth is filled with violence through them; and behold, I will destroy them with the earth. 14 “Make yourself an ark of gopherwood; make rooms in the ark, and cover it inside and outside with pitch. 15 And this is how you shall make it: The length of the ark shall be three hundred cubits, its width fifty cubits, and its height thirty cubits. 16 You shall make a window for the ark, and you shall finish it to a cubit from above; and set the door of the ark in its side. You shall make it with lower, second, and third decks.
Spiritually these numbers symbolize:
300= 30 x 10— the maturity (Lu.3.23) of God’s commandment (Ex.34.28) of love: which speaks of keeping the commandment of love by the life of God (1Jn.3.23, Jn.20.31) and the Word of God (1 Jn. 2.5).
50—symbolises the Pentecostal (Ac.2.1-4) anointing of speaking in tongues, meaning you have to walk in the love of God by the power of the Holy Spirit (Rom. 5.5, Jude 1.20-21).
30= 3x 10 —symbolises the perfect (Lu.13.32) or complete operation of the commandment (Ex.34.28) of love.
You enter the Ark by making a decision to daily and diligently walk in divine love.
Now, you can enter this Ark at different levels of maturity in divine love: babes, little children, young men and fathers (1Pe.2.2, 1Jn. 2.13), symbolized as:
Living animals—babes in divine love, who have the right attitude of love but have not developed walking in divine love to any appreciable degree because they do not yet have the knowledge or understanding of what is happening prophetically and how to walk in divine love.
Wives of Noah and his sons—little children in divine love, who have little, understanding and knowledge of what is happening and how to walk in divine love and so are walking in a small measure of divine love.
Sons of Noah—young men in divine love, who have more understanding and knowledge of what is happening and how to walk in divine love and so are walking in more of the love of God.
Noah–fathers in divine love, who have a complete (in principle) understanding and knowledge of what is happening and how to walk in divine love and so are operating perfectly or completely all the principles of divine love.
The fathers provide spiritual covering for those that have not yet developed the love of God to maturity but have the right attitude and are doing the best they can at their level spiritual development.
So make the decision to start walking daily and diligently in the love of God at whatever level of spiritual maturity in divine love you may be so you can enter the ‘Noah’s Ark’ of love that will preserve you from the flood of judgement that is about to be released:
Jude 21 NKJV: keep yourselves in the love of God,
1 John 4:18 NIV: There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
1 John 5:18 NKJV: We know that whoever is born of God does not sin; but he who has been born of God keeps himself, and the wicked one does not touch him.
