Genesis 7 - 8 points

Genesis 7

6. Noah was 600 years old when flood waters came on the earth. 

24.The waters flooded the earth for a hundred and fifty days

Genesis 8

1 But God remembered Noah and all the wild animals and the livestock that were with him in the ark, and he sent a wind over the earth, and the waters receded. 

3 The water receded steadily from the earth. At the end of the hundred and fifty days the water had gone down, 

4 and on the seventeenth day of the seventh month the ark came to rest on the mountains of Ararat. 

5 The waters continued to recede until the tenth month, and on the first day of the tenth month the tops of the mountains became visible.

10 He waited... 

12 He waited... 

13 By the first day of the first month of Noah’s six hundred and first year, the water had dried up from the earth.

14 By the twenty-seventh day of the second month the earth was completely dry.

20 Then Noah built an altar to the Lord and, taking some of all the clean animals and clean birds, he sacrificed burnt offerings on it. 

21The Lord smelled the pleasing aroma and said in his heart: “Never again will I curse the ground because of humans, even though every inclination of the human heart is evil from childhood. And never again will I destroy all living creatures, as I have done.

Prayer 

Lord, You remembered Noah and made the waters recede (move back). Likewise please remember me and have mercy on me, make all my problems go away. Help me to wait on You patiently and give thanks offerings to You at all times. In Jesus name i pray, Amen.
