Luke 17:26-27 (NKJV) 26 And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: 27 They ate, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered the ark, and the flood came and destroyed them all.
Things in the world have changed rapidly over the last few years.
We are living in a critical time in history.
We may not necessarily be on the edge of the rapture. Only God the Father knows the day and the time for that.
We are, however, living in times when we need to be awake, alert, vigilant and actively discerning what we are witnessing all around us.
Almost everyone will readily admit that things today are vastly different than they were even a few years ago.
We need to let God show us why they’ve changed.
This doesn’t imply a need for us to understand all of it, but we do need to at least recognize it and acknowledge it as being so.
We need to see the signs. And then we need to let God show us how to respond to what we’re seeing.
He will prompt us and show us. We just need to be sure we’re paying attention and heeding those promptings.
Are we sensing or feeling lately like He might be telling us to do something out of the ordinary from time to time; something outside of our normal habits?
Maybe we’ve felt like we need to buy extra groceries. Maybe He’s prompting us to handle our money differently; cut back on unnecessary spending, or move our money from one account to another, etc.
These are just examples, but recognizing them might help us better understand what God is trying to show us.
Maybe we have felt this, but we’ve just brushed it off because we didn’t understand it.
God will speak to each of us based on our own situations, because each of our circumstances are different.
But even in that, there will often be a common thread from one believer to another, since God is the same, and speaks the same message to everyone, albeit it in different ways.
It’s critical that we are careful to pay attention to God’s promptings and the leading of the Holy Spirit.
As He is faithful to lead, let us also be faithful to follow.
