We're continuing in Genesis today, chapter 7.
1. This chapter is pretty straight forward but there are a couple things to point out.
2. First, you may have noticed that Noah took a pair of every animal but then seven of the "clean" animals. Strange, right? But the "clean" animals were for Noah and his family to eat and to use to worship God.
3. Did you notice in verse 16 that it was God who shut Noah and his family in the ark along with all the animals? Pretty cool that God took a personal interest in securing Noah and his family inside.
This chapter is self explanitory but we can still fin d application for us today. God gave Noah some really odd instructions that everyone would have thought were insane. But God didn't leave Noah alone to carry out his orders. Instead, God personally got involved and sent him the animals and secured them into the ark safely himself. When God asks us to do something he always promises to help us. Whatever God is prompting you to do (that maybe you're scared of) know that he will be there to help you as you go.
