The Jesus Bible Reading Plan

Day 30 of 365 NOAH AND THE FLOOD The story of Noah offers a clear picture of the saving mercy of God. In the midst of humanity's sin and rebellion, God made a way for the salvation of the human race through Noah and the ark. Were there not a man and a family who by God's grace stood out from the wickedness of their day, there would have been a new beginning on the part of God that would have omitted all of us! Mercifully, God provided Noah and his family with the ark to escape the floodwaters. The ark is a powerful picture of Jesus Christ in whom salvation would come to everyone who believed in him. Jesus, like the ark, would one day be lifted high above the floodwaters of our sin to endure the full wrath of God. By putting our hope in Jesus, we are rescued like Noah and his family. Jesus, thank you for your mercy. Help me to be like Noah-to stand out from the wickedness of my day in order to bring you the glory you deserve. Amen. Genesis 6:18 NASB 18 But I will establish My covenant with you; and you shall enter the ark-you and your sons and your wife, and your sons' wives with you.
