…for God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life…” John 3:16 (NKJV)

Do you know that one of the beautiful things about receiving Jesus Christ into your life is the fact that He is our ark of safety both in this world and in the world to come? I know that there are many people out there who don’t believe this, but that doesn’t make it untrue. The truth still remains that, the man who has received Christ has received a security for his life that cannot be contended with, because the Bible says, “…as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ..” Galatians 3:27 (NKJV), “…for you died, and your life is hidden with Christ in God…” Colossians 3:3 (NKJV). Now, nothing can come for you without confronting Jesus first, because you are in Christ Jesus. And as long as they cannot penetrate Jesus, they cannot penetrate you, that’s the reality of what you have in Christ in Jesus.

Therefore, I encourage you to live every day in the reality of this truth. I know there’s a lot of evil going on in the world. And the devil will stop at nothing to make you believe that you are unsafe, but override his lies with the truth I am sharing with you today. 

Remember the days of Noah, when God destroyed the world, what protected Noah, his family and the animals of the field was the ark that God instructed Noah to build. As the water destroyed everything in the world at that time, Noah and his family were safe. The same flood that destroyed the world, was the same flood that bore the ark so that Noah and his family could be safe (Scripture Reference: Genesis 6:13-22, 7:1-24, 8:1-22) ). 

Now our Lord Jesus Christ is our ark today. If you will abandon yourself to Him, and believe in what He represents to you, nothing shall by any means hurt you. He has paid the price for you to be safe, so remain in the safety of the Lord. Praise God!

Today’s Rhema

Nothing can come for you without it confronting Jesus first, because you are in Christ Jesus!

Confession for the Day

Thank you heavenly father for the grace to enter into this ark. I decree today that all Jesus represents to me is manifesting in every area of my life and the agenda of the wicked towards my life is forever paralyzed because Jesus is my ark. Hallelujah!
