Reading: Genesis 6:14-16 NLT
14 “Build a large boat from cypress wood and waterproof it with tar, inside and out. Then construct decks and stalls throughout its interior.
15 Make the boat 450 feet long, 75 feet wide, and 45 feet high.
16 Leave an 18-inch opening below the roof all the way around the boat. Put the door on the side, and build three decks inside the boat—lower, middle, and upper.
DEVOTIONAL:
Today, let's reflect on the exactness of God's instructions to Noah. He provided specific measurements and materials for the Ark, symbolizing His sovereignty and wisdom. As you read these verses, consider the areas in your life where God is asking for obedience, even if His directions might not make sense to you at the moment. Trust in His divine plan.
Question for Reflection:
What is God asking you to build in your life right now, and how can you show obedience to His design?
