Noah would catch the weather every night on the local channel and then turn to ABC for the evening news. The news wasn’t good because there were fights and rebellions all over his world. The environment of the day was saturated with immorality and a complete rejection of the Creator. His only consolation was that the weather was perfect for the coming week.
Then, out of nowhere, God appeared to him and made a powerful statement:
Genesis 6:13-14
And God said to Noah, “The end of all flesh has come before Me, for the earth is filled with violence through them; and behold, I will destroy them with the earth. Make yourself an ark of gopherwood;
This would result in ark dimensions of 525-624 ft x 87.5-104 ft x 52.5-62.4 feet or roughly the size of the aircraft carrier USS Independence. Noah had a hundred years to get the job done.
Not many people believed Noah or God and only eight made it out. This account is to instruct us that God will judge His creation. He is the One in control of the future and not man.
My question to you is, as you’re watching the news and weather, what is He saying to you?
Think about it.
