“At the name of Jesus every knee should bow…” (Philippians 2:10).

NOAH CONSTRUCTED THE ark by faith (Hebrews 11:7)…
Did Noah spend a hundred years building the ark with an uncertifiable faith? Did Noah’s faith declare, “I believe that God is, that He has instructed me to build an ark, but I cannot prove it?” Did Noah step forth from the ark with an uncorroborated faith that leaps around in the dark? Noah knew that God is, that God has spoken, and that God had enjoined him to erect an ark. Noah knew that it was God who fragmented the earth and immersed it in water, and not some explosive accident of nature. Noah knew that it was God who guided the ark through the massive turbulence and safely secured it on the mountain of Ararat. Noah took God at His word and did what he was told to do. That is what faith is, and that is what faith does. (Frank Chessser)
“By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith” (Hebrews 11:17).

Stay warm and dry today.
