Because of the wickedness of man God destroyed the world with a flood. Imagine if you will the terror that would fall on Noah and his family the first time that it rained following the flood. Having lived through that great flood one would imagine that Noah would not run for the hills but for the boat when water starts to fall from the sky. Yet that never happened because God allayed those fears by making a promise to Noah. “And I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.” (Genesis 9:11)
I am friends with a meteorologist who posts lots of weather related pictures on Facebook and Twitter. Many people love to look at the beauty of rainbows. Make no mistake, they are beautiful. I don’t know what is in the mind of the masses when they behold a rainbow but I do know what is in mine. “And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.” (Genesis 9:17) God does not break His promises!
