"I Will Establish My Covenant..."

“I Will Establish My Covenant…”

Blessings folk!

The Lord told Noah to build an ark for himself.
But, it was not limited to Noah.

Gen 6:17-18
“Behold, I, even I am bringing the flood of water upon the earth, to destroy all flesh in which is the breath of life, from under heaven; everything that is on the earth shall perish.
“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.


The Lord was bringing the flood of water to destroy all flesh in which is the breath of life.
But…
Important word…”but”….

God establishes His covenant with Noah.
The “Noahic Covenant”.

The Lord told Noah what to do.
Build the ark.
Enter the ark.

Then this…
The Lord promised Noah that his family would believe and be safe.
The Lord let him know those who would be saved.
Noah
Noah’s wife
Noah’s sons (Shem, Ham, Japheth)
Noah’s son’s wives.

We see a principle.
One we need to adopt.
The Lord is interested in our families.
The Lord established His covenant with Noah and family.

Remember, God is a covenant-making and covenant-keeping God.

What would happen if we as believers truly focused our attention upon our family?

Noah preached for 120 years and no one believed, except his family.

Selah.
