About this listen

Picking it up from last week, let’s imagine what it must have been like. The Bible gives us a picture of Noah and his family standing there in this new, and I believe replenished world inthe sunlight. Take the time to think about what it must have been like, and allow the Word of God to impress your imagination. It represented a new beginning, with Noah as the human centerpiece. Last week we noticed that the first thing he did was build an altar to the Lord and sacrifice burnt offerings. We talked aboutthe turning aside of God’s wrath—propitiation. Remember also the comment I made about true worship happens when we recognize our total dependence upon God. I would add today that Noah was publicly and completely giving his life to God. We talked about the aroma of Noah’s offering pleasing God meaning that God accepted the worship. We talked about God’s covenant, blessing, and grace, and we found the sacredness of human life spelled out and affirmed by God’s Word.Lastly, we talked about the sign of the covenant: a shimmering rainbow, “my bow” as God literally termed it.
