Hebrews 11:7
“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; by the which
he condemned the world, and became heir of the righteousness which is by
faith.”
The next thing we see your faith in God does for you is that
it prepares ground for the salvation of your house, or family. It was like
Noah’s faith in God became like an ark prepared for the whole family to get in
and be saved. God is a god of families, therefore, when one family member gets
saved it
opens up the whole family to God.
“And brought them out, and said, Sirs, what must I do to be
saved? And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be
saved, and thy house.” Acts 16:30,31
What I want you to understand today is that God through your
faith in Him wants to get your whole family saved, therefore begin to believe
God for every member of your family to come to the saving knowledge of Christ.
What the jailor asked was for himself personally but Paul’s answer shows the
mind of God, that He wants the whole family.
So if your whole family is yet to
know Jesus, know that the way is open for them already, so begin to believe
them in one by one. Do not be satisfied until every member of your family has
come to the saving knowledge of Christ.
Believe on the Lord today for the salvation of the souls of
your household. Begin to take them one by one until the very last one is saved.
If every member of your immediate family is saved, widen the circle and begin
to believe for your extended family.
