As we reflect on the story of Noah from Genesis 6:9-9:17, we see Noah as a righteous man in a corrupt world, unwavering in his obedience to God's commands. Despite the widespread wickedness that led God to regret creating humanity, Noah's faith and adherence to God's instructions provided a glimmer of hope. The sermon highlights how Noah's faithful actions led to the salvation of his family and a covenant with God, symbolized by the rainbow as a promise never to destroy the earth with a flood again. We are encouraged to emulate Noah's faithfulness and obedience, trusting in God's promises and redemption through Christ.
