Description
"Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth.”
Genesis 9:16(NIV)
Yes, the rainbow is God’s sign to mankind, his promise that he will never again destroy the earth by a catastrophic flood. However, the implications of it reach further than just that. Ultimately, the rainbow reminds us of our sin. After all, the flood never would have happened had it not been for the overwhelming sin the world. But, it also reminds us of the redemption that God offers. He allowed the righteous Noah to be saved and placed him in an Ark to do so. For believers today, God saves any who come to Jesus and accepts the free gift of salvation that has been offered. In that way, Jesus is the modern day ark, saving us from utter destruction. So, next time you see a rainbow in the sky, remember back to that Genesis story. It’s truly amazing to think that, to this day, God is still reminding us of what he did so long ago on this earth. It can provide us with comfort, knowing that even after a terrible storm, God can and will be with us.
