0:24

As we enter into our passage for today, listen with your heart to the words.

Ask God to speak to you through the text.

Ask for openness...

Allow yourself to become immersed in the scene as it unfolds.

1:21

God's promise to Noah.

In this passage we hear God speaking to the people after the great flood. He is telling them his promise and gives them a sign. Imagine standing with the people and hearing these words.

1:46

Genesis 9:9-17

“Look. I now confirm my covenant with you and your descendants after you and with every living creature that is with you, including the birds, the domestic animals, and every living creature of the earth with you, all those that came out of the ark with you—every living creature of the earth. I confirm my covenant with you: Never again will all living things be wiped out by the waters of a flood; never again will a flood destroy the earth.”

And God said, “This is the guarantee of the covenant I am making with you and every living creature with you, a covenant for all subsequent generations: I will place my rainbow in the clouds, and it will become a guarantee of the covenant between me and the earth. Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears in the clouds, then I will remember my covenant with you and with all living creatures of all kinds. Never again will the waters become a flood and destroy all living things. When the rainbow is in the clouds, I will notice it and remember the perpetual covenant between God and all living creatures of all kinds that are on the earth.”

So God said to Noah, “This is the guarantee of the covenant that I am confirming between me and all living things that are on the earth.”

I wonder how it felt to be on dry land after so long?

4:18

How do the people and animals react to hearing Gods promise?

4:43

God creates a rainbow as a sign of his promise, have you seen a rainbow? How did it make you feel? What would you like to say to God about his promise?

5:22

Glory be to the Father and to the Son and to the Holy Spirit. As it was in the beginning, is now and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
