DAY 3 OF 3

Day 3: The First Kingdom Influencer

Focus: Becoming a Kingdom Influencer through Submission and Strength

After the flood, Noah’s family emerged from the Ark into a world that had been cleansed and renewed by God. They were given the monumental task of rebuilding humanity, and this new beginning was not just a physical reconstruction but a spiritual one. Mrs. Noah’s influence as a kingdom influencer came not from seeking attention but from faithfully living out God's plan.

In many ways, Mrs. Noah exemplifies the qualities of the woman described in Proverbs 31. This passage speaks of a woman who is strong, dignified, and wise—qualities that Mrs. Noah likely embodied as she supported Noah and her family during this time of transition. Proverbs 31:25-26 states, “She is clothed with strength and dignity; she can laugh at the days to come. She speaks with wisdom, and faithful instruction is on her tongue.” Mrs. Noah’s strength would have been evident in her ability to adapt to their new reality, maintaining her family’s morale and faith as they began to repopulate the earth.

As a kingdom influencer, Mrs. Noah’s submission to God’s plan is a powerful example of obedience and trust. The Bible often highlights the importance of submission as a source of strength, not weakness. James 4:7 tells us, “Submit yourselves, then, to God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.” By submitting to God’s will, Mrs. Noah became a vessel through which God’s purposes could be fulfilled, influencing her immediate family and future generations.

As they emerged from the Ark, Mrs. Noah found herself in a unique position of mentorship. She was responsible for guiding her two daughters-in-law, helping them navigate a new world that required learning and adapting to God’s renewed covenant with humanity. This mentorship was vital in setting a new standard of faithfulness and obedience, demonstrating the impact of a life fully submitted to God. In this way, she was an influencer in the truest sense—shaping the hearts and minds of those around her through quiet strength and unwavering faith.

While the Bible does not explicitly mention the grief Mrs. Noah and her family may have felt, they likely experienced deep loss. They had witnessed the destruction of their world and the loss of countless lives. Yet, in this new beginning, they were called to trust God’s promises, much like the Proverbs 31 woman who “laughs at the days to come,” confident in the Lord’s faithfulness.

Reflection:

Mrs. Noah’s story teaches us that being a kingdom influencer is not about being in the spotlight but about living out God’s calling with strength, submission, and grace. Like her, we are called to influence those around us by faithfully following God’s plan, trusting that He will use our lives for His glory, even if our names are not remembered in history. As 1 Peter 5:6 encourages us, “Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you in due time.”

May we all strive to be like Mrs. Noah, quietly and faithfully submitting to God’s will, becoming influencers for His Kingdom through our strength and unwavering trust in His promises.

Wisdom:

True influence often comes through quiet, faithful service. Mrs. Noah’s legacy is a reminder that sometimes our most profound impact is made in the lives we shape through consistent, godly living.

Action Step:

Think about your sphere of influence. How can you, like Mrs. Noah, be a quiet force for God’s kingdom in your family and community?

Closing Prayer:

Abba Father,

Thank You for Your infinite wisdom that guides our hearts and minds. We are grateful for the conscious and unconscious ways You lead us to submit to Your perfect will. Just as Mrs. Noah demonstrated strength and obedience in a time of great change, help us to embody that same strength and faithfulness in our lives. Teach us to embrace Your will, support our spouses, and impact our families with grace and love. May we be found faithful in every task You give us, always submitted to Your statutes and purpose. We ask this in the name of Jesus. Amen.
