Our scripture this morning is Genesis 9:1 (NET).
Then God blessed Noah and his sons and said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth.”
Does today’s verse sound familiar? In Genesis 1:28 we read “God blessed them and said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply! Fill the earth and subdue it! Rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and every creature that moves on the ground.”” God shows His constant and consistent love by giving the same command to Noah and his family as was given to Adam and Eve in the garden. This reboot of creation is different than the original, but God’s love for us is still the same. He wants us to choose a relationship with Him and to be part of what He is doing in our world and our lives.
Heavenly Father, Your mercy exceeds the power of evil and is there for us when we return in repentance. Bless us to stand firm in Your word and share Your love with all. Amen.
