Hebrews
11:7
It was by faith that Noah built a large boat to save his family from the flood. He obeyed God, who warned him about things that had never happened before. By his faith Noah condemned the rest of the world, and he received the righteousness that comes by faith.

We
learn from Noah
that it is possible to remain faithful and pleasing to God even in the midst of
a corrupt and sinful generation. Surely it wasn't easy for Noah, but he found
favor in God's eyes because of his remarkable obedience.
God blessed and saved Noah, just as he
will faithfully bless and protect those of us who follow and obey him today.
Our call to obedience is not a short-term, one-time call. Like Noah, our
obedience must be lived out over a lifetime of faithful commitment. Those of us
who persevere will finish the race.
