He remembers me

Genesis 8:1

Amplified Bible (AMP)

8 And God [earnestly] remembered Noah and every living thing and all the animals that were with him in the ark; and God made a wind blow over the land, and the waters sank down and abated.

This scripture gives us a beautiful picture of how much relationships mean to God. The waters of judgment and destruction had been flooding the earth, wreaking havoc with all living creatures. In the ark, Noah, his family, and the animals were waiting it out, not knowing what was happening or how long they would be confined to their boat of salvation.

But God remembered Noah. The same relationship that stopped God from including Noah and his family with the rest of humanity was the thought which reminded God that it was time to bring an end to the flood and allow Noah and the rest to find relief.

What does this tell us? Simpy put, it lets us know that many times when God moves, it is in direct response to the needs or requests of someone who is in right relationship with Him. Do you have a right relationship with God? Then ask Him to answer your prayers. Are you in need? Know that God is watching and will move to meet that need because of His respect for you. God remembered Noah, and He will remember you, too.

Be blessed.
