—Genesis 9:1-7
by: Dorothy Noel.
Noah was the new father of mankind and, as such, the mandate of mankind—to fill the earth—was passed on to him from Adam (Genesis 1:28). God’s plan for man did not change, even in the wake of extreme evil and a complete restart of the population. This was not a do-over or second chance but a continuation of the work God began at creation. If, in such extreme circumstances, God continued to exercise His sovereignty, how much more can we be sure He will do so in our world today?
