Salvation of your House

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.
