Noah lived just ten generations after the time in which Adam and Eve lived. God looked down upon the people whom He had created, and He faced the difficult fact that only one man, Noah, was living a righteous life. The world of Noah’s day had become filled with people who ignored Him, ridiculed Him, and refused a relationship with Him.
Every person during Noah’s generation could have, and should have, made the same choices Noah did, but the sad reality is that no one else did. No one but Noah and his family chose the tremendous way of living that is offered to everyone by God the Creator.
I can assure you that for any future storm in your life, as you remain in the righteousness of Christ, your heavenly Father will do for you what He did for Noah. He will give you a specific plan for how to live in a protected place during a storm, and He will be your shelter in that storm.
From the life of Noah, I am encouraged to walk with God before the storm comes into my world; I am instructed that there is a protective covering over those who wholeheartedly love and obey Him. And although the story of Noah is, in many ways, a human tragedy, I discover the word hope between every verse! I hear the Holy Spirit calling my name to live with reckless abandon for Christ and His kingdom.
God asked Noah to build a gigantic boat in the middle of the desert that would take a 120 years to finish—what has God asked you to do lately? Faith is not trusting God only when we understand what He has asked of us; it is trusting and obeying Him whether it makes sense to us intellectually or not—and this includes His instructions regarding imminent storms!
Noah and his family chose to ignore the mocking of their culture and to humbly and faithfully obey the Lord. The blessing would turn out to be epic.

Are you—or is someone you love—suffering from the trauma of plans that have been washed away, relationships that have been uprooted, or security that has been devastated? Rather than being destroyed by this tempest, what if you allowed the disturbance to increase your capacity for rapid growth and fulfilling your destiny in God? After digging deeply into the Word of God, there is a triumphant way to be StormProof!
