preparing a vessel of deliverance, an ark that would save<br />
Noah and his family, and He was using Noah to do this. Let<br />
us read Genesis 6:13-16...<br />
"And God said unto Noah, <strong>The</strong> end of all flesh is come before<br />
me; for the earth is filled with violence through them and<br />
behold I will destroy them with the earth. Make thee an ark<br />
of gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt<br />
pitch it within and without with pitch. AND THIS IS THE<br />
FASHION THAT THOU SHALT MAKE IT OF: <strong>The</strong> length of the<br />
ark shall be THREE HUNDRED CUBITS, the breadth of it<br />
FIFTY CUBITS, and the height of it THIRTY CUBITS. A<br />
window shalt thou make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou<br />
finish it above; and the door of the ark shalt thou set in the<br />
side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories shalt thou<br />
make it."<br />
Now God gave the instructions on how to build the ark. This<br />
was not left up to Noah. God knew just what He wanted, and<br />
He insisted on His plan. He knew just how big it needed to be<br />
in order to hold all the creatures that would come into it.<br />
Notice that the dimensions of this vessel were 30, 50 and<br />
300. This is not an accident. <strong>The</strong>se numbers are all very<br />
significant in the Bible. God's Bible is a book of numerical<br />
perfection. <strong>The</strong> Lord is very consistent in His use of various<br />
numbers. And these three numbers are very important in the<br />
building of this vessel of deliverance in Noah's day. <strong>The</strong>y are<br />
also important in what God is doing in these last days<br />
concerning His sons. Psalm 90:12 says "So teach us to<br />
NUMBER our days, that we may apply our hearts unto<br />
wisdom."<br />
"GOD IS BUILDING A HOUSE"<br />
Yes, God is building a house, and He is building it with living<br />
stones. This habitation of God though the Spirit will be a<br />
mighty vessel of deliverance in the time of judgment of these<br />
last days. It may be a laughing stock in the religious world,<br />
as Noah's big ship was. It may be a strange looking vessel<br />
compared to the ecclesiastical orders of our day, even as<br />
