God keeps His promises. God’s Promise • Genesis 8–9:17
After Noah finished building the big boat, God brought different kinds of animals into the boat. Noah and his family went in too. Then the rain kept pouring for forty days until it flooded the earth. When the rain stopped, Noah sent a dove to see if there was any dry land but there wasn’t. He sent the bird out again but this time it came back with an olive branch, which means that the flood has begun to subside. When the flood was gone, Noah, his family and all the animals came out of the boat. And God showed them a beautiful rainbow as a sign that He will not flood the earth again. He has kept His promises ever since.
