Noah and the ArkGenesis 6:11-22By:Lilly Rose Zervas
People did what God told them not to do. Violence filled the Earth. But there was one man, who believed in God and listened to what he had told him to do.
I will bring a flood that would last 150 days, so that they all die. God said.
God said to Noah, “People have made the earth full of violence. So I will destroy all people on the Earth. Build a boat of cypress wood for yourself. Make rooms in it and cover it inside and outside with tar
After finishing his ark he gathered his family and all the animals and placed them in his ark.
Then the flood began.It rained for days.Everyone except for the animals and he and his family were saved.They were now sailing on the ship.God had said to him to tame the animals.
God remembered Noah, his family and the animals on board. Then he blew a wind over the Earth so the water went down. After 150 days the water finally went down.
"Go into the ark, you and your whole family, because I have found you righteous in this generation.
This story teaches us that God provides us with a way to begin again when we make mistakes.
Then God said to Noah and his children, “Have many children. Grow in number and fill the earth. Everything that moves, everything that is alive, is yours for food. Earlier I gave you the green plants. And now I give you everything for food.”
