Common Ground

ASK: Have you ever done anything that you didn't understand? ​​What was it? Did you know that the Bible Character we are going to talk about this week was asked to do something that He didn't understand? The story begins when God was looking at the world and all he saw was SIN! Do you remember what SIN is? It's when we break God's law! And God decided that he was going to make it rain all over the earth to get rid of all the sin.  BUT there was one man who made God happy. His name was Noah...and this is what God asked him to do that He didn't understand.

Read Word


9 This is the history of Noah’s family. He was a good man all his life, and he always followed God. 10 Noah had three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth. 11-12 When God looked at the earth, he saw that people had ruined it. Violence was everywhere, and it had ruined their life on earth. 13 So God said to Noah, “Everyone has filled the earth with anger and violence. So I will destroy all living things. I will remove them from the earth. 14 Use cypress wood and build a boat for yourself. Make rooms in the boat and cover it with tar inside and out.15 “This is the size I want you to make the boat: 300 cubits (1 cubit = 1.5 Feet) long, 50 cubits wide, and 30 cubits high. 16 Make a window for the boat about 1 cubit below the roof. Put a door in the side of the boat. Make three floors in the boat: a top deck, a middle deck, and a lower deck.
17 “Understand what I am telling you. I will bring a great flood of water on the earth. I will destroy all living things that live under heaven. Everything on the earth will die. 18 I will make a special agreement with you. You, your wife, your sons, and their wives will all go into the boat. 19 Also, you will take two of every living thing on the earth with you into the boat. Take a male and female of every kind of animal so that they might survive with you. 20 Two of every kind of bird, animal, and creeping thing will come to you so that you might keep them alive. 21 Also bring every kind of food into the boat, for you and for the animals.”
22 Noah did everything God commanded him.  7:1 Then the Lord said to Noah, “I have seen that you are a good man, even among the evil people of this time. So gather your family, and all of you go into the boat. 2 Get seven pairs (seven males and seven females) of every kind of clean animal. And get one pair (one male and one female) of every other animal on the earth. Lead all these animals into the boat with you.

Like Jesus

Noah was living in a time that had never seen rain! Yet, Gold told Him that it was going to happen.  God gave Noah specific instructions on how to build the boat.  God even told Noah how many animals to take on the ark He was to take clean animals by sevens and unclean animals by two. And just like Noah didn't understand, there are some things in the Bible that we don't understand.  But just because we do not understand those things - doesn't mean we shouldn't do them.  Jesus said, "You are my friends, if you do what I command." (John 15:14)
