In this message, we explore the story of Noah and the flood—not just as an account of judgment, but as a powerful picture of God’s heart, grace, and redemptive plan.
Genesis 6–9 shows a world corrupted by sin, where violence fills the earth and mankind’s intentions are evil continually. Yet, amidst the brokenness, one man—Noah—walks with God. Through his radical obedience and faith, God preserves creation and makes a covenant of hope.
This sermon traces the trajectory from creation to de-creation to recreation. We see how the flood points back to the Garden of Eden, and forward to the cross of Christ. Just as salvation came through one man, Noah, so our eternal salvation comes through one righteous man—Jesus.
You’ll be challenged to consider:
• How God responds to sin with grief, not rage
• What it means to walk with God in a broken world
• Why faith in the unseen is central to discipleship
• How the ark points to Christ, our ultimate place of refuge
This message invites us to deeper trust, radical obedience, and a renewed vision of God’s heart in the midst of human failure. The bow in the sky reminds us of His promise—but the cross reminds us of His love.
