NOAH ESCAPES THE FLOOD

 

NOAH ESCAPES THE FLOOD

Passage: Genesis 7:1-24

Key verse: 5

 

1. Noah entered the ark (1-10)

God judged Noah’s generation and found Noah to be righteous. He told Noah to

enter the ark with his family and bring along with them pairs of animals and sets

of birds. By faith, Noah obeyed all the Lord commanded him and trusted God’s

promise to save them from imminent judgment. God provides a way of salvation;

those who trust and obey his plan will escape judgment.

 

2. Only Noah was left (11-24)

In the 600th year of Noah’s life, the floodgates of heaven were opened. Nature

responded, and the animals came to Noah’s ark for safety. It rained for 40 days,

covering the highest mountaintops. There was nowhere to hide. God’s judgment

was sure and complete. Everyone and every living thing died, except Noah and

those with him in the ark. The time for God’s final judgment will come, and only

those who have trusted in God’s righteousness will be saved.

 

Prayer Lord, help me to trust and obey your redemptive plan.

One Word Trust God’s plan of salvation
