  Speaker 2: with God. This is a story about a man who
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: loved God and followed the Lord's instructions even when he
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: didn't understand what was going to happen. But before we

  Speaker 2: Do you feel relaxed and cozy? Now? Settle deeper into

  Speaker 2: your covers and feel God's peace around you like a
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: soft blangage He loves you so much. Listen carefully to
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: the Bible story about Noah and the Art. It is
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: a wonderful and true story about what it means to
• 2:58
  Speaker 2: follow God. In the Book of Genesis, we learned that
• 3:07
  Speaker 2: God created the world and everything in it. He created
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: man in his own image to live here and to
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: take care of the world. A long long time ago,
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: people on earth turned away from God. They did not
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: pray to him and did whatever they wanted to do.
• 3:46
  Speaker 2: But there was one man on earth who still loved
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: God and chose what was right. His name was Noah.
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: He loved and worshiped God. He listened to God, and
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: he walked with God. He believed in God even though
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: no one else did. He taught his family to love God.
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: One day, God spoke to Noah. Noah, you are a
• 4:42
  Speaker 2: good man. You are righteous, and you live a good
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: life with your family because you love Me and follow
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: my commands. I am going to save you and your
• 5:01
  Speaker 2: family from a great flood that I will bring upon
• 5:05
  Speaker 2: the earth. You see, my heart is sad that mankind
• 5:15
  Speaker 2: has rejected me and chosen to do whatever they please.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: They do not listen to me anymore. They do not
• 5:26
  Speaker 2: follow after my ways. They do not walk with me.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: My heart is grieved. But you, Noah, you and your
• 5:43
  Speaker 2: family will be saved from the great flood. Can you
• 5:52
  Speaker 2: imagine how Noah must have felt at hearing God's words
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: The Lord promised to protect him and his family. He
• 6:08
  Speaker 2: must have been greatly comforted. Tonight, as you lie on
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: your pillow and snuggle under the warm blankets, think about
• 6:25
  Speaker 2: how God comforts you. He protects you from harm, He
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: loves you. To prepare for the flood, God told Noah
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: to build a big boat called an arc. Noah trusted
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: God even though he had never seen a big boat
• 7:03
  Speaker 2: like an arc before. In fact, God told Noah exactly
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: how to build it. He gave him all the measurements
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: and even told him what kind of would you use?
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: In the Bible. God commanded Noah to build a boat
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: that was three hundred cubits long, fifty cubits wide, and
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: thirty cubits high. That's nearly one and a half football
• 7:45
  Speaker 2: fields to equal the oar's length. God also told Noah
• 7:52
  Speaker 2: to tell as many people as he could to stop
• 7:57
  Speaker 2: acting badly and to pray and worship God. Noah said,
• 8:08
  Speaker 2: I will do as you say, so Noah grabbed his
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: tools and went to work. In your mind's eye, you
• 8:24
  Speaker 2: see Noah chopping down trees and putting the wood into place.
• 8:36
  Speaker 2: People started noticing what Noah was doing as he built
• 8:41
  Speaker 2: the boat. The ark was made out of gopher wood,
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: and when Noah was finished building it, God spoke to
• 8:55
  Speaker 2: him again. This time, God said, go into the ark
• 9:02
  Speaker 2: with your whole family. Also, take two of every kind
• 9:09
  Speaker 2: of animal, male and female, for I will keep them
• 9:15
  Speaker 2: alive in the ark. Seven days from now, I will
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: send rain on the earth. It will rain for forty
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: days and forty nights. Now, as you listen to this story,
• 9:39
  Speaker 2: try to imagine what the arc must have looked like.
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: It was huge, three stories high. Think about how Noah
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: trusted God even though he had never seen a big
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: boat or been through a great flood. This is your
• 10:12
  Speaker 2: time to rest to trust God, even when you may
• 10:22
  Speaker 2: not completely understand. Take a deep breath and let God
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: know that you trust him. He will guide you, He
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: will protect you. Snuggle deeper into your covers and get
• 10:57
  Speaker 2: really comfortable. We continue the story of how Noah walked
• 11:04
  Speaker 2: with God. Noah obeyed God without hesitation. He trusted God
• 11:19
  Speaker 2: even when he didn't understand Noah walked with God. Tonight
• 11:34
  Speaker 2: as you sleep, you can trust God. You can trust
• 11:44
  Speaker 2: Him even when you don't know how something is going
• 11:50
  Speaker 2: to turn out, and you can have faith that God
• 11:57
  Speaker 2: will guide you and protect you. Dear God, thank you
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: for your loving protection. Help them to follow after you
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: with all of their heart, mind, soul and strength. Help
• 12:26
  Speaker 2: them to remember Noah, who trusted you and walked with you.
• 12:37
  Speaker 2: I pray that they will also choose to follow you.
• 12:47
  Speaker 2: As we continue the story, imagine what it must have
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: been like to go into the ark. All the animal
• 13:00
  Speaker 2: animals were brought to Noah by God in pairs. Noah
• 13:09
  Speaker 2: led them onto the ark. Noah also loaded grain to
• 13:16
  Speaker 2: feed all the birds and the animals. Before closing the
• 13:26
  Speaker 2: door one last time, Noah invited his friends and neighbors
• 13:35
  Speaker 2: to enter the ark to be safe from the flood.
• 13:44
  Speaker 2: People in the crowd said, Noah, there is no rain
• 13:51
  Speaker 2: in sight. You aren't making any sense. Another said, do
• 14:02
  Speaker 2: you really think this God is going to save you?
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: Noah said, I believe in our Lord. He will not
• 14:20
  Speaker 2: abandon me. He has always guided me to do what
• 14:29
  Speaker 2: is right. Noah's friends and neighbors still refused to get
• 14:39
  Speaker 2: on the ark. So Noah boarded his family and God
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: shut the door of the ark to keep them safe.
• 14:54
  Speaker 2: As soon as the door was closed, the first drops
• 15:01
  Speaker 2: of rain began to fall. The villages were amazed as
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: there hadn't been rain for a very long time. As
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: the water began to flood, the arc started to flood. Noah,
• 15:31
  Speaker 2: his family, and the animals were safe and warm in
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: the ark. Picture for a moment all the different kinds
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: of animals that went into the ark. Elephants, giraffes, foxes, birds,
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: two of every animal male and female went into the ark.
• 16:23
  Speaker 2: For forty days and forty nights, the rains came down.
• 16:35
  Speaker 2: The waters rose so high even the tops of the
• 16:41
  Speaker 2: mountains were covered. Can you picture that in your mind.
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: The tallest mountain you have ever seen was under water.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: But God protected Noah. He protects you too. Finally, after
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: forty days and forty nights, the rain stopped and God
• 17:33
  Speaker 2: sent a wind to blow over the earth to push
• 17:39
  Speaker 2: back the waters. For many days, Noah sailed in search
• 17:51
  Speaker 2: of dry land, but could find none. Noah opens a
• 18:02
  Speaker 2: window in the ark. All he could see was water.
• 18:11
  Speaker 2: It was everywhere. First, Noah sent a black raven to
• 18:20
  Speaker 2: search for dry land. The raven sad for miles, searching
• 18:30
  Speaker 2: for a place to build a nest where the water
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: had yet to go down. Noah waited seven more days
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: and sent a dove to search for dry land. This time,
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: the dove returned with an olive leaf in her mouth.
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: The dove had found dry land. It was almost time
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: for Noah and his family to go out of the ark.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: The ark then came to a stop on top of
• 19:27
  Speaker 2: a dry mountain top. God spoke to Noah, saying it
• 19:34
  Speaker 2: was now safe to leave the ark. You can now
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: lead a new life with your family. Let the animals
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: once again roam the earth. One of the first things
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: Noah did was buil, build an altar to the Lord,
• 20:04
  Speaker 2: and make a sacrifice to him. Noah did this to
• 20:12
  Speaker 2: show his painfulness and devotion to God. God again spoke
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: to Noah. Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: the rainbow appears, I will remember my covenant between me
• 20:41
  Speaker 2: and you and all living creatures of every kind. Never
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: again will the waters become a flood to destroy all life.
• 20:57
  Speaker 2: Whenever the rainbow appears in the cloud, I will see
• 21:03
  Speaker 2: it and remember my covenant with you. At last, Noah
• 21:14
  Speaker 2: and his family and all of God's creatures went out
• 21:21
  Speaker 2: of the Ark. God spoke to Noah again, this time
• 21:28
  Speaker 2: making a covenant with him. Picture now, a rainbow in
• 21:35
  Speaker 2: the clouds. Every rainbow you see in the sky is
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: a sign from God, a sign of his promise to
• 21:48
  Speaker 2: all living creatures. A rainbow is God's promise never to
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: flood the whole earth. You can remember how Noah loved
• 22:05
  Speaker 2: God and walked with him. Dear God, bless this dear
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: one tonight. Please remind them of your promises. Each time
• 22:19
  Speaker 2: they see a rainbow in the sky. Help them to
• 22:24
  Speaker 2: stop and thank you for keeping your word. Help them
• 22:33
  Speaker 2: to know that you love them very much and that
• 22:40
  Speaker 2: you want them to follow after you with all of
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: their heart, just like Noah. Hard We thank you for
• 23:00
  Speaker 2: being so loving and kind. In Jesus' name. Amen, do
• 23:17
  Speaker 2: you feel relaxed and cozy? Now? Settle deeper into your
• 23:27
  Speaker 2: covers and feel God's peace around you like a soft blanket.
• 23:37
  Speaker 2: He loves you so much. Listen carefully to the Bible
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: story about Noah and the Ark. It is a wonderful
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: and true story about what it means to follow God.
• 24:00
  Speaker 2: In the Book of Genesis, we learned that God created
• 24:06
  Speaker 2: the world and everything in it. He created man in
• 24:13
  Speaker 2: his own image to live here and to take care
• 24:20
  Speaker 2: of the world. A long long time ago, people on
• 24:29
  Speaker 2: earth turned away from God. They did not pray to
• 24:35
  Speaker 2: him and did whatever they wanted to do. But there
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: was one man on earth who still loved God and
• 24:49
  Speaker 2: chose what was right. His name was Noah. He loved
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: and washiped God. He listened to God, and he walked
• 25:06
  Speaker 2: with God. He believed in God even though no one
• 25:15
  Speaker 2: else did. He taught his family to love God. One day,
• 25:31
  Speaker 2: God spoke to Noah. Noah, you are a good man.
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: You are righteous, and you live a good life with
• 25:47
  Speaker 2: your family because you love Me and follow my commands.
• 25:55
  Speaker 2: I am going to save you and your family from
• 25:59
  Speaker 2: a great flood that I will bring upon the earth.
• 26:05
  Speaker 2: You see, my heart is sad that mankind has rejected
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: me and chosen to do whatever they please. They do
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: not listen to me anymore, They do not follow after
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: my ways, they do not walk with me. My heart
• 26:32
  Speaker 2: is grieved. But you, Noah, you and your family will
• 26:42
  Speaker 2: be saved from the great flood. Can you imagine how
• 26:51
  Speaker 2: Noah must have felt at hearing God's words, the Lord
• 26:59
  Speaker 2: promised to protect him and his family. He must have
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: been greatly comforted tonight. As you lie on your pillow
• 27:15
  Speaker 2: and snuggle under the warm blankets, think about how God
• 27:23
  Speaker 2: comforts you. He protects you from harm, He loves you.
• 27:40
  Speaker 2: To prepare for the flood, God told Noah to build
• 27:46
  Speaker 2: a big boat called an arc. Noah trusted God even
• 27:55
  Speaker 2: though he had never seen a big boat like an
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: arc before. In fact, God told Noah exactly how to
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: build it. He gave him all the measurements and even
• 28:18
  Speaker 2: told him what kind of would you use? In the Bible.
• 28:24
  Speaker 2: God commanded Noah to build a boat that was three
• 28:30
  Speaker 2: hundred cubits long, fifty cubits wide, and thirty cubits high.
• 28:40
  Speaker 2: That's nearly one and a half football fields to equal
• 28:44
  Speaker 2: the oar's length. God also told Noah to tell as
• 28:51
  Speaker 2: many people as he could to stop acting badly and
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: to pray and to worship God. Noah said, I will
• 29:06
  Speaker 2: do as you say. So Noah grabbed his tools and
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: went to work. In your mind's eye, you see Noah
• 29:23
  Speaker 2: chopping down trees and putting the wood into place. People
• 29:34
  Speaker 2: started noticing what Noah was doing. As he built the boat.
• 29:42
  Speaker 2: The ark was made out of gopher wood, and when

  Speaker 2: Noah was finished building it, God spoke to him again.
• 29:55
  Speaker 2: This time, God said, go into the ark with your
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: whole family. Also, take two of every kind of animal,
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: male and female, for I will keep them alive in
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: the ark. Seven days from now, I will send rain
• 30:20
  Speaker 2: on the earth. It will rain for forty days and
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: forty nights. Now, as you listen to this story, try
• 30:37

  Speaker 2: know that you trust him. He will guide you, He
• 31:42
  Speaker 2: will protect you. Snuggle deeper into your covers and get

  Speaker 2: really comfortable as we continue the story of how Noah
• 32:01
  Speaker 2: walked with God. Noah obeyed God without hesitation. He trusted
• 32:15
  Speaker 2: God even when he didn't understand. Noah walked with God. Tonight,
• 32:31
  Speaker 2: as you sleep, you can trust God. You can trust
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: him even when you don't know how something is going
• 32:47
  Speaker 2: to turn out, and you can have faith that God
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: will guide you and protect you. Dear God, thank you
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: for your loving protection. Help them to follow after you

  Speaker 2: with all of their heart, mind, soul and strength. Help
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: them to remember Noah, who trusted you and walked with you.
• 33:35
  Speaker 2: I pray that they will also choose to follow you.
• 33:44
  Speaker 2: As we continue the story, imagine what it must have
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: been like to go into the ark. All the animals

  Speaker 2: in the crowd said, Noah, there is no rain in sight.
• 34:50
  Speaker 2: You aren't making any sense. Another said, do you you
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: really think this God is going to save you? Noah said,
• 35:12
  Speaker 2: I believe in our Lord. He will not abandon me.
• 35:21
  Speaker 2: He has always guided me to do what is right.

  Speaker 2: of the ark to keep them safe. As soon as
• 35:53
  Speaker 2: the door was closed, the first drops of rain began
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: to fall. The villages were a mazed as there hadn't
• 36:09
  Speaker 2: been rain for a very long time. As the water
• 36:18
  Speaker 2: began to flood, the arcs started to flood. Noah, his family,
• 36:29
  Speaker 2: and the animals were safe and warm in the arc.
• 36:39
  Speaker 2: Picture for a moment all the different kinds of animals
• 36:48
  Speaker 2: that went into the ark. Elephants, giraffes, foxes, birds, Two
• 37:08
  Speaker 2: of every animal male and female went into the ark.
• 37:20
  Speaker 2: For forty days and forty nights, the rains came down.
• 37:33
  Speaker 2: The waters rose so high even the tops of the
• 37:38
  Speaker 2: mountains were covered. Can you picture that in your mind?
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: The tallest mountain you have ever seen was underwater. But
• 38:01
  Speaker 2: God protected Noah. He protects you too. Finally, after forty
• 38:20
  Speaker 2: days and forty nights, the rain stopped, and God sent
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: a wind to blow over the earth to push back
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: the waters. For many days, Noah sailed in search of
• 38:49
  Speaker 2: dry land, but could find none. So Noah opens window
• 39:00
  Speaker 2: in the ark. All he could see was water. It
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: was everywhere. First, Noah sent a black raven to search
• 39:19
  Speaker 2: for dry land. The raven sawed for miles, searching for
• 39:28
  Speaker 2: a place to build a nest where the water had
• 39:34
  Speaker 2: yet to go down. Noah waited seven more days and

  Speaker 2: sent a dove to search for dry land. This time,
• 39:56
  Speaker 2: the dove returned with an olive leaf in her mouth.
• 40:02
  Speaker 2: The dove had found dry land. It was almost time
• 40:12
  Speaker 2: for Noah and his family to go out of the ark.
• 40:21
  Speaker 2: The ark then came to a storm on top of
• 40:25
  Speaker 2: a dry mountain top. God spoke to Noah, saying it
• 40:31
  Speaker 2: was now safe to leave the ark. You can now
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: lead a new life with your family. Let the animals
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: once again roam the earth. One of the first things
• 40:54
  Speaker 2: Noah did was built an altar to the Lord and
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: make a sacrifice to him. Noah did this to show
• 41:10
  Speaker 2: his painfulness and devotion to God. God again spoke to Noah.
• 41:23
  Speaker 2: Whenever I bring clouds over the earth and the rainbow appears,
• 41:32
  Speaker 2: I will remember my covenant between me and you and
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: all living creatures of every kind. Never again will the
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: waters become a flood to destroy all life. Whenever the
• 41:55
  Speaker 2: rainbow appears in the clouds, I see it and remember
• 42:02
  Speaker 2: my covenant with you. At last, Noah and his family
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: and all of God's creatures went out of the ark.
• 42:21
  Speaker 2: God spoke to Noah again, this time making a covenant
• 42:27
  Speaker 2: with him. Fiction now a rainbow in the clouds. Every
• 42:36
  Speaker 2: rainbow you see in the sky is a sign from God,
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: a sign of his promise to all living creatures. A
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: rainbow is God's promise never to flood the whole earth again.
• 42:59
  Speaker 2: You can read remember how Noah loved God and walked
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: with him. Dear God, bless this dear one tonight. Please
• 43:12
  Speaker 2: remind them of your promises. Each time they see a
• 43:18
  Speaker 2: rainbow in the sky. Help them to stop and thank
• 43:23
  Speaker 2: you for keeping your word. Help them to know that
• 43:32
  Speaker 2: you love them very much and that you want them
• 43:39
  Speaker 2: to follow after you with awe of their heart, just
• 43:48
  Speaker 2: like Noah. God, we thank you for being so loving
• 43:59
  Speaker 2: and kind. In Jesus' name. Amen, do you feel relaxed
• 44:17
  Speaker 2: and cozy? Now? Settle deeper into your covers and feel
• 44:27
  Speaker 2: God's peace around you like a soft blanket. He loves
• 44:36
  Speaker 2: you so much. Listen carefully to the Bible story about
• 44:45
  Speaker 2: Noah and the Ark. It is a wonderful and true
• 44:51
  Speaker 2: story about what it means to follow God. In the
• 44:59
  Speaker 2: Book of Genesis, we learned that God created the world
• 45:05
  Speaker 2: and everything in it. He created man in his own
• 45:11
  Speaker 2: image to live here and to take care of the world.
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: A long long time ago, people on earth turned away
• 45:29
  Speaker 2: from God. They did not pray to him and did
• 45:36
  Speaker 2: whatever they wanted to do. But there was one man
• 45:43
  Speaker 2: on earth who still loved God and chose what was right.
• 45:51
  Speaker 2: His name was Noah. He loved and worshiped God. He
• 46:00
  Speaker 2: listened to God, and he walked with God. He believed
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: in God even though no one else did. He taught
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: his family to love God. One day, God spoke to Noah. Noah,
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: you are a good man. You are righteous, and you
• 46:43
  Speaker 2: live a good life with your family because you love
• 46:49
  Speaker 2: Me and follow my commands. I am going to save
• 46:54
  Speaker 2: you and your family from a great flood that I
• 46:59
  Speaker 2: will upon the earth. You see, my heart is sad
• 47:08
  Speaker 2: that mankind has rejected me and chosen to do whatever
• 47:14
  Speaker 2: they please. They do not listen to me anymore. They
• 47:20
  Speaker 2: do not follow after my ways. They do not walk
• 47:26
  Speaker 2: with me. My heart is grieved. But you, Noah, you
• 47:37
  Speaker 2: and your family will be saved from the great flood.
• 47:46
  Speaker 2: Can you imagine how Noah must have felt at hearing
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: God's words the Lord promised to protect him and his family.
• 48:03
  Speaker 2: He must have been greatly comforted. Tonight, as you lie
• 48:11
  Speaker 2: on your pillow and snuggle under the warm blankets. Think
• 48:19
  Speaker 2: about how God comforts you. He protects you from harm,
• 48:29
  Speaker 2: He loves you. To prepare for the flood, God told
• 48:43
  Speaker 2: Noah to build a big boat called an arc. Noah
• 48:51
  Speaker 2: trusted God even though he had never seen a big
• 48:57
  Speaker 2: boat like an arc before. In fact, God told Noah
• 49:07
  Speaker 2: exactly how to build it. He gave him all the
• 49:13
  Speaker 2: measurements and even told him what kind of would to use.
• 49:21
  Speaker 2: In the Bible. God commanded Noah to build a boat
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: that was three hundred cubits long, fifty cubits wide, and
• 49:33
  Speaker 2: thirty cubits high. That's nearly one and a half football
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: fields to equal the ox length. God also told Noah
• 49:48
  Speaker 2: to tell as many people as he could to stop
• 49:52
  Speaker 2: acting badly and to pray and worship God. Noah said,
• 50:03
  Speaker 2: I will do as you say. So Noah grabbed his
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: tools and went to work. In your mind's eye, you
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: see Noah chopping down trees and putting the wood into place.
• 50:31
  Speaker 2: People started noticing what Noah was doing as he built
• 50:37
  Speaker 2: the boat. The ark was made out of gopher wood,
• 50:45
  Speaker 2: and when Noah was finished building it, God spoke to
• 50:50
  Speaker 2: him again. This time, God said, go into the ark
• 50:58
  Speaker 2: with your whole family. Also take two of every kind
• 51:04
  Speaker 2: of animal, male and female, for I will keep them
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: alive in the ark. Seven days from now, I will
• 51:17
  Speaker 2: send rain on the earth. It will rain for forty
• 51:22
  Speaker 2: days and forty nights. Now, as you listen to this story,
• 51:35
  Speaker 2: try to imagine what the ark must have looked like.
• 51:42
  Speaker 2: It was huge, three stories high. Think about how Noah
• 51:52
  Speaker 2: trusted God even though he had never seen a big
• 51:59
  Speaker 2: boat orpen through a great flood. This is your time
• 52:09
  Speaker 2: to rest. To trust God even when you may not
• 52:17
  Speaker 2: completely understand. Take a deep breath and let God know
• 52:30
  Speaker 2: that you trust him. He will guide you. He will
• 52:41
  Speaker 2: protect you. Snuggle deeper into your covers and get really
• 52:53
  Speaker 2: comfortable as we continue the story of how Noah walked
• 52:59
  Speaker 2: with God. Noah obeyed God without hesitation. He trusted God
• 53:15
  Speaker 2: even when he didn't understand. Noah walked with God. Tonight,
• 53:29
  Speaker 2: as you sleep, you can trust God. You can trust
• 53:39
  Speaker 2: Him even when you don't know how something is going
• 53:45
  Speaker 2: to turn out, and you can have faith that God
• 53:53
  Speaker 2: will guide you and protect you. Dear God, thank you
• 54:05
  Speaker 2: for your loving protection. Help them to follow after you
• 54:12
  Speaker 2: with all of their heart, mind, soul, and strength. Help
• 54:22
  Speaker 2: them to remember Noah, who trusted you and walked with you.
• 54:33
  Speaker 2: I pray that they will also choose to follow you
• 54:42
  Speaker 2: as we continue the story, Imagine what it must have
• 54:47
  Speaker 2: been like to go into the ark. All the animals
• 54:56
  Speaker 2: were brought to Noah by God in p Noah led
• 55:05
  Speaker 2: them onto the ark. Noah also loaded grain to feed
• 55:12
  Speaker 2: all the birds and the animals before closing the door
• 55:24
  Speaker 2: one last time, Noah invited his friends and neighbors to
• 55:31
  Speaker 2: enter the ark to be safe from the flood. People
• 55:40
  Speaker 2: in the crowd said, Noah, there is no rain in sight.
• 55:48
  Speaker 2: You aren't making any sense. Another said, do you really
• 55:59
  Speaker 2: think this God is going to save you? Noah said,
• 56:10
  Speaker 2: I believe in our Lord. He will not abandon me.
• 56:19
  Speaker 2: He has always guided me to do what is right.
• 56:28
  Speaker 2: Noah's friends and neighbors still refused to get on the ark,
• 56:38
  Speaker 2: so Noah boarded his family and God shut the door
• 56:44
  Speaker 2: of the ark to keep them safe. As soon as
• 56:51
  Speaker 2: the door was closed, the first drops of rain began
• 56:58
  Speaker 2: to fall. The villages were amazed as there hadn't been
• 57:08
  Speaker 2: rain for a very long time. As the water began
• 57:17
  Speaker 2: to flood, the arcs started to flood. Noah, his family,
• 57:27
  Speaker 2: and the animals were safe and warm in the ark.
• 57:37
  Speaker 2: Picture for a moment all the different kinds of animals
• 57:46
  Speaker 2: that went into the ark. Elephants, giraffes, birds, two of
• 58:06
  Speaker 2: every animal, male and female went into the ark. For
• 58:19
  Speaker 2: forty days and forty nights, the rains came down. The
• 58:31
  Speaker 2: waters rose so high even the tops of the mountains
• 58:37
  Speaker 2: were covered. Can you picture that in your mind? The
• 58:48
  Speaker 2: tallest mountain you have ever seen was underwater. But God
• 59:00
  Speaker 2: protected Noah. He protects you too. Finally, after forty days
• 59:19
  Speaker 2: and forty nights, the rain stopped, and God sent a
• 59:29
  Speaker 2: wind to blow over the earth to push back the waters.
• 59:41
  Speaker 2: For many days, Noah sailed in search of dry land,
• 59:50
  Speaker 2: but could find none. So Noah opens a window in
• 59:59
  Speaker 2: the ark. All he could see was water. It was everywhere. First,
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 2: Noah sent a black raven to search for dry land.
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 2: The raven sawed for miles, searching for a place to
• 1:00:27
  Speaker 2: build a nest, but the water had yet to go down.
• 1:00:38
  Speaker 2: Noah waited seven more days and sent a dove to
• 1:00:46
  Speaker 2: search for dry land. This time, the dove returned with
• 1:00:56
  Speaker 2: an olive leaf in her mouth, But dove had found
• 1:01:03
  Speaker 2: dry land. It was almost time for Noah and his
• 1:01:11
  Speaker 2: family to go out of the ark. The ark then
• 1:01:20
  Speaker 2: came to a stop on top of a dry mountain top.
• 1:01:26
  Speaker 2: God spoke to Noah, saying it was now safe to
• 1:01:32
  Speaker 2: leave the ark. You can now lead a new life
• 1:01:39
  Speaker 2: with your family. Let the animals once again roam the earth.
• 1:01:50
  Speaker 2: One of the first things Noah did was built an
• 1:01:56
  Speaker 2: altar to the Lord and make a sacrifice to him.
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 2: Noah did this to show his painfulness and devotion to God.
• 1:02:16
  Speaker 2: God again spoke to Noah. Whenever I bring clouds over
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 2: the earth and the rainbow appears, I will remember my
• 1:02:33
  Speaker 2: covenant between me and you and all living creatures of
• 1:02:41
  Speaker 2: every kind. Never again will the waters become a flood
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 2: to destroy all life. Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds,
• 1:02:57
  Speaker 2: I will see it and remember my covenant with you.
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 2: At last, Noah and his family and all of God's
• 1:03:13
  Speaker 2: creatures went out of the ark. God spoke to Noah again,
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 2: this time making a covenant with him. Picture now a
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 2: rainbow in the clouds. Every rainbow you see in the
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 2: sky is a sign from God, a sign of his
• 1:03:42
  Speaker 2: promise to all living creatures. A rainbow is God's promise
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 2: never to flood the whole earth again. You can remember
• 1:03:59
  Speaker 2: how Noah God and walked with him. Dear God, bless
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 2: this dear one. Tonight. Please remind them of your promises.
• 1:04:14
  Speaker 2: Each time they see a rainbow in the sky. Help
• 1:04:19
  Speaker 2: them to stop and thank you for keeping your word.
• 1:04:27
  Speaker 2: Help them to know that you love them very much
• 1:04:35
  Speaker 2: and that you want them to follow after you with
• 1:04:40
  Speaker 2: all of their heart, just like Noah. God, we thank
• 1:04:54
  Speaker 2: you for being so loving and kind. In Jesus' name. Amen,
• 1:05:13
  Speaker 2: do you feel relaxed and cozy? Now settle deeper into
• 1:05:22
  Speaker 2: your covers and feel God's peace around you. Make a
• 1:05:29
  Speaker 2: soft blanket. He loves you so much. Listen carefully to
• 1:05:41
  Speaker 2: the Bible story about Noah and the Ark. It is
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 2: a wonderful and true story about what it means to
• 1:05:52
  Speaker 2: follow God. In the Book of Genesis, we learned that
• 1:06:00
  Speaker 2: God created the world and everything in it. He created
• 1:06:08
  Speaker 2: man in his own image to live here and to
• 1:06:15
  Speaker 2: take care of the world. A long long time ago,
• 1:06:24
  Speaker 2: people on Earth turned away from God. They did not
• 1:06:31
  Speaker 2: pray to him and did whatever they wanted to do.
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 2: But there was one man on earth who still loved
• 1:06:44
  Speaker 2: God and chose what was right. His name was Noah.
• 1:06:53
  Speaker 2: He loved and worshiped God. He listened to God, and
• 1:07:01
  Speaker 2: he walked with God. He believed in God even though
• 1:07:11
  Speaker 2: no one else did. He taught his family to love God.
• 1:07:25
  Speaker 2: One day, God spoke to Noah. Noah, you are a
• 1:07:36
  Speaker 2: good man. You are righteous, and you live a good
• 1:07:42
  Speaker 2: life with your family because you love Me and follow
• 1:07:48
  Speaker 2: my commands. I am going to save you and your
• 1:07:54
  Speaker 2: family from a great flood that I will bring upon
• 1:07:58
  Speaker 2: the earth. You see, my heart is sad that mankind
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 2: has rejected me and chosen to do whatever they please.
• 1:08:15
  Speaker 2: They do not listen to me anymore. They do not
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 2: follow after my ways. They do not walk with me.
• 1:08:26
  Speaker 2: My heart is grieved. But you, Noah, you and your
• 1:08:36
  Speaker 2: family will be saved from the great flood. Can you
• 1:08:45
  Speaker 2: imagine how Noah must have felt at hearing God's words
• 1:08:54
  Speaker 2: The Lord promised to protect him and his family. He
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 2: must have been greatly comforted. Tonight, as you lie on
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 2: your pillow and snuggle under the warm blankets, think about
