Genesis 8:3 The water receded steadily from the earth. At the end of the hundred and fifty days the water had gone down,//
While it only rained for 40 days and 40 nights, the water remained for 150 days. I forget that it may time for the Lord to work and heal.

Genesis 7:16 The animals going in were male and female of every living thing, as God had commanded Noah. Then the Lord shut him in.//
Note that it is the Lord who closes the ark. Sometimes God puts us in small places with only those close to us to protect us.

Genesis 6:6 The Lord regretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled.//
An all-loving and all-knowing God that regrets what He did. I am reminded that I cannot understand God or His ways.

Genesis 5:3-5 When Adam had lived 130 years, he had a son in his own likeness, in his own image; and he named him Seth. After Seth was born, Adam lived 800 years and had other sons and daughters. Altogether, Adam lived a total of 930 years, and then he died.//
Throughout the entire chapter, the lives of men are known for their children. Not one of them is remembered for their careers; only their children and and their children’s children.

Genesis 4:7 If you do what is right, will you not be accepted? But if you do not do what is right, sin is crouching at your door; it desires to have you, but you must rule over it.”//
To push sin out of our lives, we must rule over it.

Genesis 3:22-24 And the Lord God said, “The man has now become like one of us, knowing good and evil. He must not be allowed to reach out his hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever.” So the Lord God banished him from the Garden of Eden to work the ground from which he had been taken. After he drove the man out, he placed on the east side of the Garden of Eden cherubim and a flaming sword flashing back and forth to guard the way to the tree of life.//
The Lord will use angels to block us from the things that we should not partake.

Genesis 2:8 Now the Lord God had planted a garden in the east, in Eden; and there he put the man he had formed.//
How interesting it is that the Lord starts with planting in Genesis and ends with harvesting in Revelation.

Genesis 1:14 And God said, “Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night, and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years,//
Time was created by God, not man.

Revelation 22:20 He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.//
We wait with strong anticipation for the second coming of Jesus!!!

Revelation 21:27 Nothing impure will ever enter it, nor will anyone who does what is shameful or deceitful, but only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s book of life.//
A great day with everything made new is coming!
