Message | Daily Guide 22 April 2022 | Scripture Union Devotional
In the year 2020, the world experienced an unprecedented lockdown due to COVID19 that stunned the whole world. No visits, no work, no schooling, no gatherings for worship. It was virtual imprisonment. We see Noah being the first to endure a lockdown for over a whole year. He went through the lockdown in full faith and trust in the Lord. Now was a time for he and his family to gain freedom from the lockdown.
God had graciously saved him and his family from the flood. When the ark landed on Mt Ararat, Noah sent out the raven, which never came back. Then the dove which came back with the answers he was looking for. The dove did not come back the last time. Why did Noah remain in the ark? What patience! Since Noah was following God’s commands, why did he have to send the birds to see what the situation was?
Many of us meet various lockdowns in our lives, some which are quite debilitating like illnesses, some that cause lots of pain or ridiculing from friends and family. How did Noah survive over a year of lockdown? It is critical to be focused on God with unwavering faith and trust. The end will come (Isaiah 43:2; Jeremiah 29:11). God’s timing is best for you whatever discomfort you may be experiencing.
Practice/Word Application
So what? Reread vs.21‐22 and Jeremiah 29:11 and pray for your future.
