"Noah's Perfection"; Genesis 6:9

One Minute Scripture Study: A Come Follow Me Podcast - Podcast autorstwa Kristen Walker Smith and Cali Black

I often cringe when I think about some of the things I did as a teenager just to be “funny”, that were not totally aligned with my values at the time. What can Noah teach us about this? When I look back on my high school years, I cringe a bit when I reflect on some of the things that I did. I had a super strong testimony and was active in church. But I also realize that maybe I shouldn't have participated in that prank, or wonder why I felt I was justified in being rude to someone. I'm not saying I was a bad kid, but I can totally see now that there was a disconnect in my integrity-- my actions did not always line up with my beliefs. When I read about Noah, he is spoken of so highly in the scriptures: "Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations'". Perfect?! Well, I'm a big fan of footnotes, and when I looked at the footnote attached to "perfect", I noticed the Hebrew meaning could also translate to, "complete, whole, having integrity". Now THAT makes sense to me. Noah must have been a man of great integrity. When he said that he loved God, his actions aligned with making God a priority in his life. He was consistent in every area of his life. This is what makes Noah such a great example and disciple of God.   Get our 365-day Old Testament daily devotional book: https://amzn.to/3nYC821 And grab Cali’s scripture study guide here: https://comefollowmestudy.com/shop/ Discount code: OMSS   Music courtesy of bensound.com
