Devotions on F.I.R.E. Year OneSample

And did not spare the ancient world, but saved Noah, one of eight people, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood on the world of the ungodly (2 Peter 2:5).

Are you urgently witnessing for Jesus knowing that judgment looms?

God sees the widespread wickedness of mankind and says, “Enough.” He limits the duration of time until the worldwide flood at 120 years (Genesis 6:3). Yet Noah, who finds favor from God, not only builds an ark in obedience to the Lord but also preaches to a sinful world for 120 years. No wonder he is placed next to Job and Daniel as a model saint (Ezekiel 14:14, 20). Another preacher, John the Baptist, comes with an urgent message. His words are penetrating; “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand!” (Matthew 3:2). Eternity is just around the corner. Let’s heed Paul’s words, “redeeming the time, because the days are evil” (Ephesians 5:16).

Employment Point: Proclaim Jesus to the lost, because judgment is coming.
