John 14:6
We have entered a period of expectation of Easter, more specific Palm Sunday, Good Friday and Resurrection. A Spiritually Blessed period for the Apostolic Christians of the world – a period of fruitfulness, abundance and multiplication (Genesis 8:17) lies ahead for all.
We are reminded of Noah and the Ark, when God in His Almighty Wisdom instructed Noah to build an Ark Genesis 6:14 “Make thee an ark of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and without with pitch.” For His chosen to occupy and remain safe during the “40 days and 40 nights rain” (Genesis 7:4) that was about to set in and cleanse the earth! So too can we see this period that we are currently experiencing (albeit in a different form than rain) as a time of cleansing and a reminder of the Power of God Almighty; it is a time granted for us to reflect on our relationship with the Tri-Une God and for us all to illustrate our Love, Patience and indeed, our Spiritual Maturity.
At the end of the 40 days and 40 nights, when the rain subsided, Noah sent out a DOVE to observe the surroundings – at last the DOVE returned with an “Olive Leaf” (Genesis 8:10-11), which meant that the earth was Safe to occupy once again; and above all, a sign of Peace and Victory that was to come upon the chosen ones of GOD.
SO too our LORD and SAVIOUR, JESUS CHRIST came to this earth from Heaven, overcame sin, was crucified, overcame Hell, and was resurrected to life and extended an Olive Leaf so that we too can obtain PEACE, GRACE and VICTORY.
“Thanks be to GOD that giveth us the Victory through our Lord Jesus Christ”
(1 Corinthians 15:57).
