As in the Days of Noah

End times days of Noah

END TIMES

   A. Reference: Matthew 24:37-39 – “As it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man…”

“When the Son of Man returns, it will be like it was in Noah’s day. In those days before the flood, the people were enjoying banquets and parties and weddings right up to the time Noah entered his boat. People didn’t realize what was going to happen until the flood came and swept them all away. That is the way it will be when the Son of Man comes. “Two men will be working together in the field; one will be taken, the other left. Two women will be grinding flour at the mill; one will be taken, the other left. “So you, too, must keep watch! For you don’t know what day your Lord is coming. 

COMFORT DISTRACTIONS VS DEMONIC DISTRACTIONS

Recognizing the Signs

Reference: Matthew 24:3-14 – “And you will hear of wars and rumors of wars…”

Urgency for Unprecedented Faith

   Matthew 24:42 – “Therefore, stay awake, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming.”

   The call for believers to be vigilant and spiritually prepared

Separation and Moral Stand

2 Corinthians 6:17 – “Therefore go out from their midst, and be separate from them, says the Lord…”

Separation from worldly influences and the importance of taking a moral stand

Practical Steps for Unprecedented Faith

Philippians 4:6-7 – “Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with 

thanksgiving, let your requests be made known to God…”

Cultivate unprecedented faith and navigate uncertain times

Engaging in Moral Leadership

  Micah 6:8 – “He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love 

kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?”

Take a moral stand in their personal lives and communities

Matthew 24:14 – The state of the church…

LEGALISM.

Legalism: substituting rules for relationships.

You will never get to know God’s character through rules but rather through relationship.

WORLDLY DISTRACTIONS.

Phillipians 3:7-8 NIV

But whatever was to my profit, I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss 

compared to the surpassing greatness of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider 

them rubbish, that I may gain Christ… 

SPIRITUAL COMPLACENCY.

Satisfied with what we have done, not what is still to be done.

One of most dangerous things so many churches—spiritually complacent!

Marriage, Ministry, Relationship to God

If you’re not dead—you’re not done!

Philippians 3:12-14 (From prison!)

Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which 

Christ Jesus took hold of me. Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting 

what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me 

heavenward in Christ Jesus.
