1) We learn that Noah had three sons: Shem, Ham, and Japheth. I'm well aware of the humor that accompanies the name Ham, who was the biggest entertainer in the Bible (get it?). Were the kids born after Noah was 500 or before he was 500 years old? The reality is…I don’t care.
2) Beyond that, verse 11 teaches us that the Earth had become utterly corrupt and was rife with violence. Depravity was rampant. Consequently, God decided to use Noah to initiate a reset or reboot to cleanse the darkness from the face of the Earth. Doesn't that Sounds somewhat like what heaven will be like with a reboot using Jesus?
3) The Lord commanded Noah to construct an ark from resinous wood and seal it with tar, both inside and out. The ark, also known as a boat, was to be 450 feet long, 75 feet wide, and 45 feet high, with three separate decks and a single door on the side. At this point, we can acknowledge the enormity of this task. Some estimates suggest that it took Noah nearly 100 years to complete this project.
4) However, with God, all things are possible. No matter how daunting a task may seem at the outset, God will help you, and I, see it through to completion. In fact, Jesus is often referred to as the finisher of our faith. He paves the way for us.
