Title: God Keeps His Promises: The Story of Noah’s Ark
Bible Verse: “And God said, I will establish my covenant with you, neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there anymore be a flood to destroy the earth.” – Genesis 9:11
Introduction:
God is a loving and just God who keeps His promises. In the story of Noah’s ark, God showed His faithfulness to Noah and His covenant to never destroy the earth with a flood again. Let’s dive into the story and learn how God took care of Noah, his family, and the animals.
Lesson:
Noah was a man who loved God and followed His commands. God saw how wicked the people of the earth were, and He decided to send a flood to cleanse the earth. But God also saw Noah’s obedience and wanted to save him and his family. So, God told Noah to build an ark, a big boat.
Noah didn’t know what a flood was, and his neighbors made fun of him. But Noah continued to trust in God and follow His commands. He built the ark, and God told him to bring two of every kind of animal on the ark, so they wouldn’t die in the flood.
The rain came, and it didn’t stop for forty days and forty nights. But because Noah obeyed God, he and his family, along with the animals, were safe in the ark. The water covered everything on the earth, and all living things except for what was on the ark died.
After the flood, God made a covenant with Noah. He promised to never destroy the earth again with a flood. God put a rainbow in the sky as a symbol of His covenant. Whenever we see a rainbow, we can remember that God keeps His promises.
Conclusion:
Noah’s ark is a great reminder that God is faithful to His promises. No matter what, we can trust in God to take care of us, just as He took care of Noah and his family. So, let’s continue to follow God’s commands, obey Him, and trust in Him to keep His promises.
