THE DANGER OF SELF-EXALTATION

By Rev. Samuel Arimoro

Main Text: Genesis 11:1-9

Key Verse:

“And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.” (Genesis 11:6)


Supporting Texts: Proverbs 16:18; James 4:6; 1 Peter 5:5; Philippians 2:3-4

Description: This message teaches that self-exaltation leads to pride, rebellion, divine correction, and ultimate confusion, emphasizing humility and dependence on God.

INTRODUCTION
The Tower of Babel story demonstrates humanity’s attempt to elevate itself apart from God. The people united to build a tower to make a name for themselves, seeking fame, security, and recognition through their own effort.

Self-exaltation is a trap that every believer must avoid. Pride blinds the heart, causing disobedience, rebellion, and eventual downfall. When people attempt to glorify themselves instead of God, divine intervention is inevitable.

This sermon encourages believers to recognise the danger of pride, cultivate humility, and align every ambition and collaborative effort with God’s will. True elevation comes only through submission to Him.

1. SELF-EXALTATION BREEDS PRIDE AND ARROGANCE
Human ambition without God leads to inflated self-importance.

a) Elevating Self Above God (Genesis 11:4-6)
The builders sought to make a name for themselves, ignoring God’s authority.

b) Pride Precedes Destruction (Proverbs 16:18)
Self-exaltation invites divine opposition and eventual failure.

c) Rebellion Against Divine Authority (James 4:6)
God resists the proud; self-glorification provokes His intervention.

d) Humility Protects from Downfall (1 Peter 5:5)
Submission and reverence prevent the consequences of arrogance.

Biblical Example:
The people of Babel exalted themselves to reach the heavens, which drew God’s scrutiny and led to confusion and scattering (Genesis 11:5-7)

2. SELF-EXALTATION LEADS TO DIVINE CORRECTION
God comes down to correct prideful human schemes.

a) Confusion Halts Human Ambition (Genesis 11:7-8)
God confused their language to stop their rebellious project.

b) Divine Order Overrides Human Plans (Isaiah 64:1)
God’s correction ensures that human pride does not undermine His purpose.

c) Correction as Instruction (Deuteronomy 8:18)
Consequences are a tool to teach dependence on God.

d) Intervention Preserves Future Generations (Psalm 33:10-11)
God frustrates projects of self-glorification to guide humanity in righteousness.

Biblical Example:
By confusing languages, God corrected the prideful builders, teaching that self-exaltation attracts divine intervention (Genesis 11:7-9)

3. SELF-EXALTATION DESTROYS UNITY
Human ambition without God leads to disunity and confusion.

a) Confusion of Language (Genesis 11:8)
Self-centered goals fracture community collaboration.

b) Pride Leads to Division (Philippians 2:3-4)
Ignoring God in unity fosters rivalry and conflict.

c) Dependence on God Prevents Collapse (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12)
God-centered unity sustains collective effort.

d) Humility Secures Harmony (Romans 12:16)
Respect and humility prevent disintegration of plans and relationships.

Biblical Example:
The Tower of Babel’s builders experienced scattered confusion, showing that self-exaltation destroys harmony and divine purpose (Genesis 11:8-9)

4. TRUE EXALTATION COMES FROM GOD
Believers are called to humility and submission to receive divine elevation.

a) God Grants Promotion (Psalm 75:6-7)
Elevation comes from God, not human ambition.

b) Humility Attracts Blessing (James 4:10)
Lowering oneself in reverence opens the door for God’s favour.

c) Obedience Leads to Honour (1 Samuel 2:30)
Following God’s will ensures lasting recognition and legacy.

d) God-Centered Unity Produces Fruit (Acts 2:42-47)
Communities built on God’s guidance prosper and glorify Him.

Biblical Example:
While the builders of Babel sought self-glory, God later elevated Abraham and the disciples as examples of divine honour through humility (Genesis 12:1-3; Acts 2:42-47)

CONCLUSION
The Tower of Babel teaches that self-exaltation leads to pride, divine correction, confusion, and disunity. Believers must submit ambitions, unity, and plans to God, recognising that elevation comes only through obedience and humility.

True blessing, harmony, and divine honour flow to those who glorify God above themselves. Avoiding self-exaltation ensures alignment with His purposes, protection from confusion, and lasting spiritual impact.

Description: This message shows that God comes down to check human pride, intervene in misguided plans, and enforce His divine order when unity is attempted without Him.

INTRODUCTION
The Tower of Babel illustrates humanity’s attempt to achieve greatness apart from God. The people sought unity to make a name for themselves, building a tower to the heavens. Their ambition, though seemingly impressive, was rooted in pride and disobedience.

God does not ignore human schemes that exclude Him. When mankind attempts to elevate themselves without acknowledging divine authority, God comes down to intervene, correct, and redirect. This story reminds believers that God’s involvement is essential in every collective effort or enterprise.

This sermon encourages believers to recognise God’s interventions in human affairs, understand the consequences of prideful ambition, and pursue alignment with God’s will in all undertakings.

b) Dependence Aligns Plans With God (Proverbs 3:5-6)
True success comes from recognising God in all efforts.

c) Humility Opens Doors for Divine Blessing (Philippians 2:3-4)
Submission to God ensures harmonious and fruitful collaboration.

d) Godly Dependence Produces Stability (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12)
Partnerships rooted in God’s guidance withstand challenges.

Biblical Example:
The people’s lack of dependence on God led to confusion and scattering, teaching that human unity must honour divine authority (Genesis 11:7-9)

4. GOD COMES DOWN TO ESTABLISH ORDER AND DIRECTION
God’s intervention restores divine order and ensures His purposes are fulfilled.

CONCLUSION
“When God comes down” teaches that His presence in human affairs corrects pride, redirects misguided efforts, and establishes divine order. The Tower of Babel demonstrates that human unity without God leads to confusion and failure, while alignment with Him ensures blessing and success.

Believers must submit collective efforts and personal ambition to God, recognising that true guidance, direction, and stability come from His intervention. Godly dependence transforms human plans into instruments of His eternal purpose.

Description:
This message teaches that unity without God leads to pride, confusion, and divine intervention, emphasizing the need for godly alignment in every collective effort.

INTRODUCTION

The story of the Tower of Babel illustrates how human unity, when detached from God, can lead to pride, rebellion, and ultimate confusion. The people sought to make a name for themselves, building a tower to assert their independence from God.

Believers today can fall into similar traps; seeking success, recognition, or power without acknowledging God’s presence, guidance, or authority. Human effort without divine alignment is ultimately unstable and susceptible to failure.

This message challenges believers to pursue unity that honours God, submitting every plan and effort to His authority. True success comes when human collaboration is guided by divine wisdom and purpose.

1. UNITY WITHOUT GOD BREEDS PRIDE

Human collaboration without acknowledging God often leads to arrogance and self-glory.

The builders wanted to make a name for themselves, elevating human identity above God.

b) Ignoring Divine Authority (Proverbs 16:18)
Pride precedes destruction when God is excluded from plans.

c) Elevation of Self Above God (James 4:6)
God resists the proud, showing that self-reliance opposes divine purpose.

d) Pride Leads to Disunity (1 Corinthians 1:11-12)
Conflicts emerge when human ambition supersedes submission to God.

Biblical Example:
The people at Babel united to build a tower to the heavens without acknowledging God, leading to their dispersal and confusion (Genesis 11:4-9)

2. GOD OPPOSES HUMAN EFFORTS DETACHED FROM HIM
Human initiatives that exclude God face divine resistance and consequences.

God allows consequences to redirect human ambition toward dependence on Him.

Biblical Example:
God confused the languages of the people at Babel, demonstrating that human effort without Him is futile (Genesis 11:7-9)

3. UNITY MUST BE ROOTED IN GODLY PURPOSE
Collaboration should honour God and align with His divine will.

a) God-Centered Plans Succeed (Proverbs 16:3)
Commit human efforts to God for alignment with His purposes.

b) Submission Prevents Destruction (Psalm 127:1)
Buildings and endeavours succeed only when God is the foundation.

c) Humble Collaboration Yields Fruit (Philippians 2:2-4)
Unity works best when self-interest is replaced with godly humility.

d) Divine Guidance Ensures Stability (Ecclesiastes 4:9-12)
Partnerships rooted in God bring strength, support, and blessing.

Biblical Example:
The failure at Babel contrasted with later godly unity, such as the disciples’ cooperation at Pentecost, which advanced God’s kingdom (Acts 2:1-4)

4. GODLY UNITY RESULTS IN BLESSING AND DIRECTION
True unity is guided by God and results in harmony, clarity, and success.

a) Unity Under God Brings Growth (Psalm 133:1-3)
Harmonious relationships produce spiritual blessing and abundance.

b) Direction Comes from God (Isaiah 30:21)
God provides guidance when collective efforts honour Him.

CONCLUSION
The Tower of Babel teaches that unity without God leads to confusion, failure, and divine correction. Believers are called to pursue collaboration and relationships rooted in humility, godliness, and submission to God’s authority.

Godly unity results in clarity, blessing, and progress according to His purpose. By honouring God in every human effort, believers position themselves to build legacies, communities, and ministries that align with His will.

Main Text: Genesis 8:15-19

Key Verse:

“And God spake unto Noah, saying, Go forth of the ark, thou, and thy wife, and thy sons, and thy sons' wives with thee.” (Genesis 8:15–16)


Supporting Texts: Isaiah 43:18-19; 2 Corinthians 5:17; Philippians 3:13-14; Psalm 107:20-22

Description: This message teaches that God leads His people from seasons of preservation into new beginnings, calling for obedience, faith, and readiness to embrace His fresh plans.

INTRODUCTION
Coming out of the ark signifies transition from a period of preservation and protection into a new phase of blessing and responsibility. Noah and his family were called to step into a fresh beginning after the flood, leaving the old, destroyed world behind.

Often, believers remain in “arks” of preparation, protection, or waiting. God’s call to step out requires faith, obedience, and a readiness to embrace new opportunities. The moment God commands, hesitation can cost blessings, but obedience ensures alignment with His divine purpose.

This message encourages believers to recognise when God is calling them into a new season and to step out with courage, trusting that the future He provides surpasses the past.

1. OBEDIENCE IS THE FIRST STEP INTO A NEW BEGINNING

Believers must trust God’s strength and wisdom to navigate unfamiliar territories.

Committing plans to God ensures He establishes the way forward.

Biblical Example:
Noah trusted God to provide food, guidance, and protection after leaving the ark, stepping confidently into a new life (Genesis 8:18-19)

3. NEW BEGINNINGS INVOLVE RESPONSIBILITY AND STEWARDSHIP
Transitioning into a new season carries both opportunity and responsibility.

Noah and his family were given responsibility to replenish the earth.

b) Responsibility Includes Obedience (1 Corinthians 4:2)
Faithful stewardship of new opportunities honours God and produces blessing.

c) Responsibility Requires Vigilance (Proverbs 27:23-24)
Taking care of God’s provision ensures sustainability of new beginnings.

How believers handle new opportunities affects future generations.

Biblical Example:
God tasked Noah with replenishing the earth, entrusting him with stewardship of His creation in the new era (Genesis 9:1-3)

4. NEW BEGINNINGS ARE MARKED BY PRAISE AND THANKSGIVING
Acknowledging God’s deliverance is essential in every new season.

a) Worship Recognises God’s Faithfulness (Genesis 8:20-21)
Noah built an altar and offered sacrifices in gratitude for God’s protection.

b) Thanksgiving Attracts Blessings (Psalm 107:20-22)
Praising God confirms faith and invites continued favour in new beginnings.

c) Praise Builds Spiritual Momentum (Psalm 100:4-5)

CONCLUSION
Coming out of the ark is a metaphor for stepping into God’s new plans, leaving old seasons behind, and embracing fresh opportunities with faith and obedience. Like Noah, believers must trust God’s guidance, act decisively, steward His blessings responsibly, and continually offer praise.

God calls every believer to recognise the season of transition and respond faithfully. Those who step out in obedience and faith will experience restoration, provision, and fulfilment of divine purpose.

Description:  This message teaches that divine timing requires patience and obedience, and waiting for God’s signal ensures the right steps are taken for fulfilment of His plan.

INTRODUCTION
Waiting for God’s signal is a spiritual principle that demonstrates trust, patience, and obedience. After the flood, Noah could not leave the ark until God indicated the right time. The sending of the dove and its eventual return without finding rest marked the divine signal for Noah to act.

In life, believers often face seasons of uncertainty, delay, or waiting. Impatience can lead to wrong decisions, missed opportunities, or unnecessary risks. Noah’s example teaches that waiting for God’s signal produces precision, safety, and alignment with His purpose.

This message encourages believers to exercise patience, seek divine guidance, and trust God’s timing before taking any major step. Waiting is not inactivity—it is an active posture of faith and discernment.

Relying on God during waiting periods builds intimacy and trust.

Biblical Example:
Noah’s waiting for God’s signal strengthened his obedience and trust, ensuring the correct timing to exit the ark (Genesis 8:12)

CONCLUSION
Waiting for God’s signal is a mark of faith, patience, and obedience. Noah’s example teaches that divine timing ensures precision, protection, and fulfilment of God’s purpose. Acting prematurely can compromise destiny, but waiting aligns believers with God’s will.

Believers are encouraged to cultivate spiritual discipline through waiting, trusting that God’s signal will always come at the perfect time. Obedience in waiting positions believers for blessing, restoration, and divine guidance.

Main Text: Genesis 7:1-5

Key Verse:

“Take thou unto thee of all clean beasts by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female.” (Genesis 7:2)


Supporting Texts: 2 Corinthians 6:17; Joshua 24:14; Psalm 1:1–3; Revelation 18:4

Description: This message teaches that God often calls His people to separation from corruption and evil in order to preserve them for His divine purpose.

INTRODUCTION
Separation is a spiritual principle designed by God to preserve the righteous from the contamination of a corrupt environment. In Noah’s time, the earth was filled with violence and wickedness. God’s command for Noah to separate from the world and prepare the ark ensured the survival of both his family and the animals.

God’s call to separation is not always easy. It often requires leaving behind comfort, popularity, or conformity. Noah had to build a vessel and isolate himself from a generation that had rejected God. His separation was not a punishment but a means of divine protection.

In today’s world, believers are still called to live holy and distinct lives. Separation preserves destiny, safeguards blessings, and positions God’s people for manifestation of His promises.

1. DIVINE SEPARATION PRESERVES LIFE
Separation protects those whom God intends to preserve from destruction.

a) God Commands Separation to Protect (Genesis 7:1-5)
Noah was instructed to separate the clean and unclean animals for preservation, showing that God’s instruction ensures survival.

b) Separation Prevents Contamination (2 Corinthians 6:17)
Believers must come out from ungodly influences to maintain holiness and protection.

c) Separation Secures Divine Blessing (Psalm 1:1-3)
Those who avoid wicked counsel flourish like trees planted by rivers of water.

d) Separation Distinguishes the Righteous (Joshua 24:14)
God calls His people to forsake idolatry and worldly compromise to preserve His purpose in them.

Biblical Example:
Noah’s obedience in separating clean and unclean animals and entering the ark preserved life while the flood destroyed the wicked (Genesis 7:2-3)

2. SEPARATION PROTECTS FROM JUDGMENT
Divine separation is a shield against coming judgment.

a) Obedience Brings Divine Preservation (Genesis 7:5)
Noah’s faith in following God’s separation commands saved his household from the flood.

b) Separation Shields Against Spiritual Destruction (Revelation 18:4)
God’s people are called to come out of Babylon to avoid His wrath.

c) Separation Creates a Refuge (Psalm 27:5)
Staying away from ungodly paths ensures a place of safety under God’s hand.

d) Separation Is a Covenant of Protection (Exodus 12:13)
The blood on the door marked the Israelites safe from the plague, demonstrating preservation through obedience.

Biblical Example:
By separating from the wicked generation and entering the ark, Noah’s family was shielded from the flood judgment (Genesis 7:7)

3. SEPARATION PRESERVES DESTINY AND PURPOSE
God uses separation to ensure that His purposes are not destroyed.

a) Separation Maintains Alignment with God’s Will (Romans 12:2)
Transformation occurs when we separate from worldly patterns and embrace divine instruction.

b) Separation Prepares for Future Manifestation (1 Corinthians 15:58)
Those who are preserved through separation are positioned to fulfil God’s promises.

Noah’s separation allowed humanity to continue after the flood.

Biblical Example:

4. SEPARATION TESTS AND STRENGTHENS FAITH
Separation challenges believers to trust God fully and act by faith.

a) Faith Is Required in Separation (Hebrews 11:7)
Noah obeyed God’s call to separate despite the world’s corruption.

b) Separation Produces Spiritual Discipline (James 1:2-4)
Isolation from worldly compromise builds endurance and character.

c) Separation Confirms Commitment (1 Peter 1:6-7)
Remaining obedient in separation demonstrates a heart fully aligned with God.

d) Separation Leads to Reward (Revelation 3:10)
God honours those who remain faithful through testing and separation.

Biblical Example:
Noah’s faith and obedience in separating from the wicked preserved his family and fulfilled God’s plan (Genesis 7:1-5)

CONCLUSION
Separation is not a sign of punishment but a divine strategy for preservation. Noah’s obedience ensured his life, his family’s survival, and the continuation of God’s plan for humanity. Divine separation positions believers for blessing, protection, and fulfilment of God’s purposes.

God calls believers today to live distinct lives, separate from corruption and worldly influence. Those who obey and embrace separation will be preserved, protected, and positioned for divine destiny.

Main Text: Genesis 7:1-16

Key Verse:

“And the LORD shut him in.” (Genesis 7:16)

Supporting Texts: Exodus 14:13-14; Psalm 121:3; Isaiah 26:20; Revelation 3:8

Description: This message teaches that God’s divine doors of protection close to shield the obedient and preserve His purposes, often sealing in blessing and sealing out danger.

INTRODUCTION
God’s timing and sovereignty are perfect. At times, He closes doors not to punish but to protect. In Genesis 7, Noah obeyed God fully and entered the ark. The Bible explicitly records that “the LORD shut him in.” This act was divine intervention, securing Noah and his household from the coming judgment.

When God shuts a door, it is an act of preservation, not limitation. Many Christians misunderstand closed doors, seeing them as denial. However, in the case of Noah, the closed door marked salvation, separation from evil, and entry into God’s covenant promise.

This message highlights the importance of obedience, faith, and divine timing. Just as God shut the door of the ark for Noah, He can shut doors in your life to protect you from destruction and align you with His will.

Divine protection often comes in ways that human eyes cannot comprehend.

The ark door was sealed by God’s command at the exact time for safety.

When God’s people obey, He fights on their behalf.

c) God’s Doors Are Sealed Against Destruction (Psalm 121:3)
The Lord preserves the righteous from sudden harm.

d) Divine Closure Is Not Denial (Isaiah 26:20)
God’s sealed doors distinguish safety from judgment.

Biblical Example:
God shut the door of the ark, protecting Noah and his family while the flood destroyed the world (Genesis 7:16)

2. GOD SHUTS DOORS TO SEPARATE THE RIGHTEOUS FROM EVIL
Divine doors distinguish between judgment and preservation.

a) Separation Protects Destiny (Genesis 7:1-5)
God’s sealed door marked Noah as distinct from the corrupt generation.

b) Protection Through Exclusion (Psalm 91:7)
Evil may be around, but it cannot enter where God’s protection is active.

c) God Distinguishes Between Obedience and Disobedience (Exodus 12:13)
Doors of deliverance are reserved for those aligned with God’s instruction.

d) Divine Separation Produces Safety (Psalm 34:7)
God’s angels encamp around those He preserves.

Biblical Example:
While the flood waters consumed the earth, Noah and his family were safely preserved inside the ark (Genesis 7:16)

3. GOD SHUTS DOORS TO PRESERVE PROMISES AND PURPOSES
Closed doors ensure the fulfillment of God’s plan for His people.

Doors open and close according to God’s perfect plan.

Biblical Example:
The closure of the ark door preserved Noah’s family, ensuring the continuation of the human race and God’s plan for salvation (Genesis 7:16-17)

4. GOD SHUTS DOORS TO TEST FAITH AND OBEDIENCE
Divine closures often reveal the depth of one’s trust and submission.

a) Faith Is Strengthened Through Closure (Hebrews 11:7)
Noah’s trust in God was demonstrated while inside the sealed ark.

b) Obedience Is Proved in Confinement (James 1:12)
Endurance through isolation and testing affirms obedience.

c) God Tests Commitment to His Word (1 Peter 1:6-7)
The flood tested Noah’s patience and obedience.

d) Divine Doors Bring Glory After Trial (Revelation 3:8)
God opens doors after closing others, revealing His faithfulness.

Biblical Example:
Noah obeyed God fully while confined in the sealed ark, and his obedience ensured his family’s survival and future blessing (Genesis 7:16)

CONCLUSION
When God shuts a door, it is an act of preservation, protection, and preparation. Noah’s life demonstrates that divine closure is not limitation but a shield for destiny and a pathway to fulfilment. Those who trust God in closed doors find that these closures are blessings in disguise.

Believers must learn to see closed doors as God’s intervention rather than restriction. Obedience, faith, and patience in the midst of divine closure result in preservation, protection, and fulfilment of God’s promises.

PRAYER POINTS

BUILDING THE ARK BEFORE THE RAIN

BUILDING THE ARK BEFORE THE RAIN

By Rev. Samuel Arimoro

Main Text: Genesis 6:13-22

Key Verse:

“By faith Noah, being warned of God of things not seen as yet, moved with fear, prepared an ark to the saving of his house.” (Hebrews 11:7)


Supporting Texts: Genesis 7:1-7; Matthew 24:37-39; Proverbs 22:3; Habakkuk 2:2-3

Description:
This message teaches the power of faith-driven obedience that prepares ahead of manifestation and acts on God’s word before evidence appears.

INTRODUCTION
God often calls His people to prepare for what they cannot yet see. Faith does not wait for physical confirmation before it acts; it responds to divine instruction with trust and obedience. Noah was commanded to build an ark at a time when rain had never fallen, making his obedience both unusual and demanding.

In Noah’s generation, preparation before evidence looked like foolishness. While others lived carelessly, Noah invested his time, resources, and strength in a divine instruction that contradicted natural understanding. Yet, his preparation was not in vain; it became the means of salvation for his household.

This message challenges believers to build in faith before the rain comes; before promotion, breakthrough, judgment, or revival manifests. God still honours those who prepare ahead of time in obedience to His word.

1. FAITH OBEYS GOD BEFORE SEEING EVIDENCE
True faith responds to God’s word even when circumstances offer no visible support.

a) Faith Acts on Divine Warning (Hebrews 11:7)
Noah acted on God’s warning about unseen events, proving that faith believes God’s word over physical reality.

b) Faith Does Not Depend on Experience (2 Corinthians 5:7)
Noah had never seen rain, yet he believed God beyond personal experience.

c) Faith Respects God’s Authority (Proverbs 3:5)
Trusting God fully meant Noah leaned not on human reasoning.

d) Faith Moves with Godly Fear (Psalm 111:10)
Reverence for God motivated Noah to take God’s instruction seriously.

Biblical Example:
Noah responded in faith to God’s warning about the coming flood and began building the ark without any visible sign of rain (Genesis 6:13-14)

2. OBEDIENCE REQUIRES PREPARATION AHEAD OF TIME
Preparation is proof that faith is genuine and active.

a) God Commands Preparation Before Manifestation (Genesis 6:14)
God instructed Noah to prepare the ark long before the flood arrived.

b) Delay in Preparation Leads to Loss (Proverbs 22:3)
Noah’s early preparation spared him from sudden destruction.

c) Preparation Demands Discipline and Sacrifice (Luke 14:28)
Building the ark required sustained effort, resources, and commitment.

d) God Rewards Timely Obedience (Ecclesiastes 3:1)
Noah prepared in God’s timing, not his own convenience.

Biblical Example:
Noah spent years constructing the ark exactly as God commanded before the flood came (Genesis 6:22)

3. PREPARATION ATTRACTS MOCKERY BEFORE IT BRINGS DELIVERANCE
Those who prepare ahead often face ridicule before they see results.

a) Obedience Can Look Foolish to the World (1 Corinthians 1:18)
Noah’s obedience was mocked because it defied human logic.

b) Mockery Is a Test of Conviction (Galatians 6:9)
Noah remained consistent despite public ridicule.

c) Faith Endures Opposition (James 1:12)
Perseverance under pressure proved Noah’s faith genuine.

d) God Vindicates the Obedient (Isaiah 54:17)
The ark eventually silenced every mocker.

Biblical Example:
Noah continued building the ark faithfully while the world ignored and mocked the warning (Matthew 24:37-39)

4. PREPARATION POSITIONS YOU FOR DIVINE PRESERVATION
God’s provision is often hidden inside obedience-driven preparation.

a) God Preserves Those Who Prepare (Genesis 7:1)
Noah’s preparation positioned him for divine invitation into the ark.

b) Preparation Becomes a Place of Refuge (Psalm 27:5)
The ark became a shelter because it was built in obedience.

c) God Secures What He Ordains (Genesis 7:16)
God shut the door of the ark, sealing Noah’s safety.

d) Prepared Faith Secures Generations (Acts 16:31)
Noah’s preparation saved his entire household.

Biblical Example:
Noah and his family entered the ark and were preserved when the flood came (Genesis 7:1-7)

CONCLUSION
Building the ark before the rain was an act of radical faith, unwavering obedience, and disciplined preparation. Noah’s story reminds us that God often calls His people to prepare long before manifestation appears. What looks like delay is often divine training for preservation.

Today, God is calling believers to build: build faith, character, obedience, and spiritual capacity before the rain comes. Those who prepare early will not panic when the storm arrives, for God always shelters those who obey Him in faith.

PRAYER POINTS
1. Father, strengthen my faith to obey You even when I cannot see evidence, in Jesus name.
2. Lord, deliver me from spiritual laziness and help me to prepare ahead, in Jesus name.
3. Every spirit of delay assigned to stop my preparation, be destroyed, in Jesus name.

Supporting Texts: Hebrews 11:7; Genesis 7:1-5; Deuteronomy 28:1-2; John 14:15

Description: This message reveals how one man’s complete obedience to God became the channel through which an entire generation was preserved.

INTRODUCTION
Obedience is one of the most powerful spiritual principles in Scripture. From Genesis to Revelation, God consistently ties divine favour, preservation, and generational impact to obedience. Obedience is not merely compliance; it is alignment with God’s will regardless of personal convenience or public opinion.

In Genesis 6, the earth was filled with corruption, violence, and rebellion against God. Judgment was inevitable. Yet, in the midst of widespread disobedience, God found one man whose heart was fully submitted to Him. That man was Noah. His obedience did not only save his life; it preserved his household and secured the future of humanity.

In a time when many believers are tempted to compromise, this message calls the Church back to radical obedience. God is still looking for men and women whose obedience can secure families, churches, cities, and even nations.

1OBEDIENCE BEGINS WITH HEARING GOD CLEARLY
Obedience is impossible without divine instruction. Noah obeyed because he heard God distinctly in a noisy and corrupt world.

a) God Speaks Before He Acts (Genesis 6:13)
God revealed His plans to Noah before executing judgment, showing that obedience flows from divine revelation.

b) Hearing God Separates You from the Crowd (John 10:27)
While others followed the culture of corruption, Noah listened to God’s voice and stood apart.

c) Obedience Requires Spiritual Sensitivity (1 Samuel 3:10)
Noah’s ability to hear God was rooted in a heart that feared and reverenced Him.

d) God Entrusts His Secrets to the Obedient (Amos 3:7)
God shared His redemptive plan with Noah because obedience qualifies a man for divine secrets.

Biblical Example:
God spoke to Noah about the coming flood and the ark, while the rest of the world remained ignorant and unprepared (Genesis 6:13–21)

2OBEDIENCE MUST BE COMPLETE AND PRECISE
Partial obedience is disobedience. Noah followed God’s instructions without alteration or argument.

a) God Demands Exact Obedience (Genesis 6:22)
Noah followed all that God commanded him, not selecting what was convenient.

b) Obedience Tests Submission, Not Logic (Proverbs 3:5-6)
Building an ark without rain required faith beyond human reasoning.

c) Obedience Requires Patience and Endurance (Galatians 6:9)
Noah laboured for years without immediate results, yet he did not stop.

d) Delayed Obedience Is Still Required Obedience (Hebrews 10:36)
Noah stayed consistent until the flood came.

Biblical Example:
Noah built the ark according to God’s detailed measurements and instructions without deviation (Genesis 6:22)

3.   OBEDIENCE PROVOKES DIVINE PRESERVATION
God’s judgment may be global, but obedience creates divine exemption.

a) Obedience Attracts Divine Protection (Psalm 91:1-7)
While destruction came upon the earth, Noah was preserved inside the ark.

b) Obedience Creates a Safe Haven (Proverbs 18:10)
The ark became a refuge because it was built by obedience.

c) God Separates the Obedient from Judgment (Exodus 12:13)
Obedience marks a difference between destruction and deliverance.

d) Obedience Secures God’s Presence (Genesis 7:16)
God Himself shut Noah into the ark, guaranteeing his safety.

Biblical Example:
Noah and his family were preserved while the flood destroyed the corrupt world (Genesis 7:1-5)

4.   OBEDIENCE EXTENDS SALVATION TO OTHERS
True obedience is never selfish; it has generational impact.

a) One Man’s Obedience Can Save Many (Romans 5:19)
Noah’s obedience preserved his entire household.

b) Obedience Positions You as a Deliverer (Judges 6:14)
God used Noah as an instrument of human survival.

c) Obedience Transfers Blessings to Family (Acts 16:31)
Noah’s family benefited from his righteous walk with God.

d) Obedience Shapes Future Generations (Genesis 9:1)
Humanity was restarted through an obedient man.

Biblical Example:
Through Noah’s obedience, humanity was preserved and given a new beginning (Genesis 8:15-19)

CONCLUSION
Obedience is God’s pathway to preservation, favour, and generational impact. Noah did not save the world by strength, influence, or popularity, but by unwavering obedience to God’s word. In every generation, God looks for men and women who will stand firm when others compromise.

Today, God is still seeking obedient vessels through whom families, churches, and nations can be saved. When you obey God completely, your obedience becomes a shelter for others and a testimony to future generations.

PRAYER POINTS

A MAN WHO FOUND FAVOUR WITH GOD

A MAN WHO FOUND FAVOUR WITH GOD

By Rev. Samuel Arimoro

Main Text: Genesis 6:8-9

Key Verse: “But Noah found favour in the eyes of the LORD.” — Genesis 6:8

Supporting Texts: Psalm 5:12; Proverbs 3:3-4; Hebrews 11:7; Luke 1:30; Acts 7:46

Description: This message reveals how a man can attract divine favour through righteousness, obedience, and a consistent walk with God.

INTRODUCTION
Favour is one of the strongest expressions of divine approval in Scripture. It is God’s supernatural advantage released upon a man, causing him to succeed where others struggle. In a generation filled with corruption and violence, the Bible records that Noah alone found favour with God.

Finding favour does not mean the absence of challenges; rather, it means divine backing in the midst of adversity. Noah lived among the same people, faced the same environment, yet enjoyed exemption, preservation, and elevation because God’s favour rested upon him.

This message teaches believers that divine favour is not random. God still searches for men and women whose lives align with His standards. When a man walks uprightly, obeys God completely, and fears Him sincerely, favour becomes inevitable.

1. FAVOUR IS FOUND, NOT ASSUMED
Divine favour is discovered through relationship, not entitlement.
It is something a man encounters by alignment, not something he demands by association.

a) Favour distinguishes individuals (Genesis 6:8)
Among millions of people, Noah alone was singled out by God.

b) Favour is personal (Psalm 5:12)
God surrounds the righteous with favour as with a shield.

c) Favour is not inherited (Ezekiel 18:20)
Every individual must walk rightly before God to access favour.

d) Favour flows from intimacy with God (Psalm 84:11)
Upright walking positions a man for divine approval.

Biblical Example:
Noah found favour while others encountered judgment, proving that favour is personal and deliberate (Genesis 6:8).

2. RIGHTEOUSNESS ATTRACTS DIVINE FAVOUR
God responds positively to moral integrity and upright living.
Righteousness is a magnet for divine favour.

a) Noah was righteous before God (Genesis 6:9)
His lifestyle aligned with God’s moral standard.

b) Integrity invites divine preservation (Proverbs 11:3)
Uprightness guides and sustains the righteous.

c) God honours holy living (1 Peter 1:15-16)
Holiness attracts divine endorsement and approval.

d) Righteousness produces stability (Psalm 112:1-3)
Those who fear the Lord are firmly established.

Biblical Example:
Job walked uprightly before God and received divine testimony and restoration (Job 1:1, 8; Job 42:10-12).

3. OBEDIENCE SUSTAINS FAVOUR
Favour is preserved through total obedience to God’s instructions.
Partial obedience can weaken or interrupt divine favour.

a) Noah obeyed God completely (Genesis 6:22)
He did all that God commanded him without alteration.

b) Obedience validates faith (Hebrews 11:7)
Noah’s faith was proven by action.

c) Sacrifice cannot replace obedience (1 Samuel 15:22)
God prioritises obedience over religious activity.

d) Consistency preserves favour (Luke 16:10)
Faithfulness in details sustains divine approval.

Biblical Example:
Abraham obeyed God’s call and instructions and entered into covenant favour (Genesis 12:1-4; Genesis 22:16-18).

4. FAVOUR BRINGS PRESERVATION IN TIMES OF JUDGMENT
When judgment falls, favour becomes divine exemption.
God’s favour acts as a covering in dangerous seasons.

a) Favour provides divine protection (Genesis 7:1)
God personally shut Noah into the ark.

b) Favour separates the righteous (Exodus 12:13)
God makes a difference between His people and others.

c) Favour preserves destiny (Psalm 91:7)
Disaster may fall around, but it will not consume the favoured.

d) Favour secures family salvation (Genesis 7:7)
Noah’s household was preserved because of him.

Biblical Example:
Lot was delivered from Sodom because of divine mercy and favour (Genesis 19:15-16, 29).

5. FAVOUR LEADS TO DIVINE PROMOTION
God’s favour does not stop at survival; it leads to elevation and legacy.
After preservation comes divine advancement.

a) Noah became a new beginning (Genesis 9:1)
God restarted humanity through him.

b) Favour establishes legacy (Proverbs 20:7)
The righteous leave an enduring generational impact.

c) Favour brings covenant blessing (Genesis 9:8-11)
God entered into a covenant with Noah.

d) Favour opens generational doors (Psalm 102:13)
Divine favour extends beyond one lifetime.

Biblical Example:
David found favour with God and was elevated from shepherd to king (1 Samuel 16:11-13; Acts 13:22).

CONCLUSION
Noah’s life proves that divine favour is possible even in a corrupt generation. While others compromised, Noah remained righteous, obedient, and faithful, and God preserved him and his household.

Believers today must pursue the same path. When a man finds favour with God, judgment turns to preservation, struggle turns to promotion, and chaos gives way to divine order.

10. Your life shall be a testimony of favour with God.

GRACE IN THE MIDST OF CORRUPTION

GRACE IN THE MIDST OF CORRUPTION

By Rev. Samuel Arimoro

Main Text: Genesis 6:5-8

Key Verse: “But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.” — Genesis 6:8

Supporting Texts: Romans 5:20-21; Titus 2:11-12; Psalm 84:11; John 1:16-17; Isaiah 1:18

Description: This message reveals how God releases grace to preserve, distinguish, and advance His people even when corruption dominates their generation.

INTRODUCTION
Corruption had reached an alarming height in the days of Noah. The Bible records that the imagination of man’s heart was continually evil, and wickedness covered the earth like a flood. In the midst of this moral collapse, divine judgment was imminent, yet God’s grace still spoke.

Grace is not the absence of judgment; it is God’s provision for preservation and redemption before judgment falls. While the world was drowning in sin, Noah stood out, not because he was perfect, but because he found grace in the eyes of the Lord.

This message teaches believers that no matter how dark a generation becomes, God’s grace is still available to keep, empower, and distinguish those who walk with Him. Grace does not excuse corruption; it empowers righteousness in corrupt times.

1. CORRUPTION ATTRACTS DIVINE ATTENTION
When wickedness becomes widespread, God responds decisively.
Corruption is never hidden from God, and persistent wickedness provokes divine intervention.

a) God sees the depth of corruption (Genesis 6:5)
God observed that evil was not occasional but continual, revealing a systemic decay.

b) Corruption grieves the heart of God (Genesis 6:6)
Sin does not only break laws; it breaks God’s heart.

c) Wickedness invites judgment (Romans 1:18)
Persistent rebellion provokes divine wrath and correction.

d) God responds at the right time (Ecclesiastes 3:17)
Judgment may delay, but it never fails to arrive.

Biblical Example:
The pre-flood world became so corrupt that God declared judgment upon all flesh, demonstrating that corruption never escapes divine notice.

2. GRACE DISTINGUISHES THE RIGHTEOUS
Grace marks God’s people for preservation in evil times.
Grace creates separation without isolation and favour without compromise.

a) Grace singles out individuals (Genesis 6:8)
While the world was corrupt, Noah stood alone by grace.

b) Grace is not earned by the crowd (Romans 11:6)
Grace operates by God’s choice, not popular behaviour.

c) Grace preserves amid destruction (Psalm 84:11)
God withholds no good thing from those who walk uprightly.

d) Grace produces divine covering (Isaiah 54:17)
Grace becomes a shield against generational judgment.

Biblical Example:
Noah and his household were preserved while the rest of the world perished, proving that grace separates the righteous from the corrupt.

3. GRACE EMPOWERS RIGHTEOUS LIVING
Grace is not permission to sin but power to overcome it.
True grace enables believers to live godly lives in ungodly environments.

a) Grace teaches holiness (Titus 2:11–12)
Grace instructs believers to deny ungodliness and worldly lusts.

b) Grace strengthens obedience (2 Corinthians 12:9)
God’s grace supplies strength where human ability fails.

c) Grace sustains consistency (Philippians 4:13)
Divine empowerment maintains righteous living over time.

d) Grace enables endurance (Hebrews 4:16)
Grace helps believers stand firm until the end.

Biblical Example:
Noah lived righteously for decades in a corrupt generation, sustained not by willpower but by grace.

4. GRACE DOES NOT CANCEL RESPONSIBILITY
Grace always demands a response of obedience and faith.
Divine favour must be partnered with human responsibility.

a) Grace came before the assignment (Genesis 6:8-14)
Noah found grace before he was commanded to build the ark.

b) Obedience validates grace (James 2:17)
Faith and grace are proven by action.

c) Grace requires perseverance (Galatians 6:9)
Noah obeyed consistently despite mockery.

d) Grace prepares for future deliverance (Hebrews 11:7)
Obedience to grace secures salvation and legacy.

Biblical Example:
Noah built the ark according to God’s instructions, showing that grace must be followed by obedience.

5. GRACE ALWAYS PREVAILS OVER CORRUPTION
God’s grace ultimately triumphs over evil.
Where sin abounds, grace super-abounds.

a) Grace outpaces sin (Romans 5:20)
God’s grace is greater than the darkest corruption.

b) Grace preserves destiny (Jeremiah 29:11)
God’s plans remain intact despite generational decay.

c) Grace brings new beginnings (Genesis 8:1)
After judgment, grace ushered in restoration.

d) Grace reveals God’s mercy (Lamentations 3:22-23)
God’s mercies renew even after devastation.

Biblical Example:
After the flood, Noah emerged into a renewed world, proving that grace does not only preserve, it restores.

CONCLUSION
The story of Noah reminds us that corruption may dominate a generation, but grace still speaks louder. While sin invited judgment, grace provided preservation, direction, and hope. God has never left Himself without a witness, even in the darkest times.

As believers, we must rely on grace to live righteously, obey faithfully, and stand boldly. Grace is God’s divine advantage in corrupt times. When the world collapses morally, grace becomes the platform for survival, distinction, and destiny fulfilment.
