In the seventh chapter of Genesis we are still looking at the history of Noah but it is the flood and God’s preservation of Noah and his family. One hundred twenty years passed from the time that God first spoke to Noah concerning the flood and the time in which they entered the ark. During those years he raised three sons, saw them marry, built a massive ship on dry land and stored all the supplies that would be necessary to care for the living cargo. Whenever I think of Noah I think of Heb. 11:7 where we read “By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household.” It’s that “moving with Godly fear, preparing an ark” that amazes me. One hundred twenty years after that divine warning and Noah stayed obedient and faithful to God’s calling and because he did he not only secured his salvation but that of his households as well. We can never underestimate the importance of faithful obedience to God’s call in our lives.
