Noah was a moral and exemplary man; he walked with God.
1 PETER 1:15 (CEB)
You must be holy in every aspect of your lives, just as the one who called you is holy.
SUMMARY SENTENCE
Aim for an exemplary life characterized in all respects by godliness.
DAILY FODDER
It's easy to become satisfied with partial godliness as we reason that we're doing our best. But God isn't really looking for our best.
PRAYER
Holy God, thank you for showing me through Noah's example of how to be righteous. I strive to walk in close fellowsip with you, God, but often slip into old, sinful habits. Help me keep my heart open to your holy and righteous guidance. You chose me as your child, and I want my life to please you. Amen. (Daily Texts, Ground Up Grace edition)
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you will protect us from all forms of evil. Amen.
