BUILD THE BOAT

Genesis 7:1

BUILDING THE BOAT REQUIRED NOAH'S HANDS. ENTERING THE BOAT REQUIRED NOAH'S HEART.

1. THERE COMES A TIME WHEN THE HAMMER HAS TO COME DOWN

THERE ARE SEASONS WHEN GOD TELLS YOU TO BUILD, AND THERE ARE SEASONS WHEN GOD TELLS YOU TO BELIEVE.

2. THE SAME GOD WHO TOLD NOAH TO BUILD THE BOAT BROUGHT THE RAIN

Genesis 7:4

GOD NEVER ASKS YOU TO PRODUCE THE MIRACLE. HE ONLY ASKS YOU TO PREPARE FOR IT.

3. GOD SHUT THE DOOR

Genesis 7:16

Noah was safe because God sealed what God called.

4. THE BOAT WAS NEVER REALLY ABOUT NOAH

THE BOAT WAS ABOUT GENERATIONS.

YOUR OBEDIENCE TODAY CAN BECOME SOMEBODY ELSE'S MIRACLE TOMORROW.

WHAT FEELS ORDINARY TODAY MAY BECOME GENERATIONAL TOMORROW.

5. AFTER THE STORM, THERE WAS A NEW BEGINNING

Genesis 8:18

IF GOD BROUGHT YOU TO IT, HE ALREADY HAS A PLAN TO BRING YOU THROUGH IT.

NOAH'S GREATEST MIRACLE WASN'T BUILDING THE ARK. NOAH'S GREATEST MIRACLE WAS TRUSTING GOD ENOUGH TO STEP INSIDE.

FAITH BUILDS THE BOAT. TRUST GETS IN THE BOAT. FAITHFULNESS STAYS IN THE BOAT UNTIL GOD SAYS IT'S TIME TO COME OUT.
