RAINBOWS AND ESTABLISHED COVENANTS


IN THE BEGINNING...THE WORD
DAILY DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY, NOVEMBER 1, 2012

RAINBOWS AND ESTABLISHED COVENANTS

And I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth.
And God said, This is the token of the covenant which I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for perpetual generations:
I do set my bow in the cloud, and it shall be for a token of a covenant between me and the earth.
And it shall come to pass, when I bring a cloud over the earth, that the bow shall be seen in the cloud:
And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become a flood to destroy all flesh.
And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it, that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.
And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant, which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth. Genesis 9:11-9:17

God, you set your bow in the cloud for us, to remind us that you love us.  You make covenants with us, promises that you will keep.  We can trust you from age to age.  What is man that you are mindful of us?  Thank you for your everlasting covenants.  We can trust your promises...and we do.

Today, let us remember the rainbow!
