Genesis 8:16 Go out of the ark, you and your wife, and your sons and your sons’ wives with you. 18 So Noah went out, and his sons and his wife and his sons’ wives with him.”

‭‭At this point, Noah has obeyed God in the most illogical ways. He built an ark when rain was nonexistent and he allowed wild animals to reside with him and his family for over 150 days. Now, after the rains have stopped, Noah obeys God again by coming out of the ark.

The storm is over and dry land can be seen. Why should Noah continue to obey God? Because everything the Lord told him came to pass. As a result of Noah’s obedience, Noah and his family didn’t perish with the rest of mankind. Noah and his family were safe and all their needs were met during the flood.

With God, we seem to be on our best behavior when going through a storm. We pray, read, and are obedient like never before. However, when the storm is over, some of us go back to doing things our way. We don’t consult God or we limit our time with Him. The same God that got us through the storm, should be the same God that leads us to our destiny. Just because the storm is over doesn’t mean we don’t have to obey God. Let’s obey God until the end.
