BRAGADAYJAH 15

The Great Flood In giving Noah instructions concerning the living creatures that he should take into the ark, God stipulated that there were to be taken in male and female. Males and females were and are and always will be God’s plan for procreation, neither could it be otherwise. Once Noah and his family were securely inside of the Ark, the Lord shut them in. God, the God of heaven closed up the door of the Ark, and caused it to rain, so the Bible says for forty days. And at the end of that time the Ark was lifted up from the earth, above the earth. Now some men considering themselves to be wise, question the veracity of the flood account; but the word is clear about it. I remember well going home one late afternoon and feeling tired I laid on my bed and fell asleep. It was about 6.00 p.m. and there was no sign of rain about. Not a cloud in the sky. About two hours later a friend of mine knocked on the door and was astonished that I obviously had been sleeping. “You were in bed already and the whole place is washing away!” he exclaimed. When I looked out there were massive land slides and the water in my basement was over twenty feet high. I was truly amazed that so much water had descended in such short a space of time. In that episode many lives were lost, houses, people, animals, and bridges were washed away. Not so long ago, I went to sleep one night right here in Central Florida and the next morning found that many places were flooded and people trapped in their homes, and required days before they could get out of their houses. Yes Rome was not built in a day, but it could be destroyed by flood in an hour. Imagine, then what could be done in forty days and nights of constant rain, especially if God wills it to be a flood to fulfill His purpose. “And the waters prevailed, and were increased greatly upon the earth, and the Ark went upon the face of the waters. And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills that were under the whole heaven were covered. Fifteen cubits upwards did the waters prevail and the mountains were covered.” More….
