CHILDREN'S SABBATH LESSONS
LESSON 4
NOAH
Noah loved Yahweh.
Yahweh told Noah to build a big boat because He was going to make
it rain. The boat was called The Ark.
 Noah
cut trees to make The Ark. He was very careful to do just what Yahweh wanted.
The people saw Noah building this great big boat on dry land with no water
around and they laughed at him.
It took Noah a very long time to build this Ark; maybe a hundred
years!
 When
The Ark was done, Yahweh told Noah to gather food and water and a few of each
kind of animal to put on The Ark. Noah did just what Yahweh told him to do.
After the animals and food were put into The Ark, Noah's family
went in and everything was ready for Yahweh to shut the door.
When the door was shut, it began to rain and it rained hard for 40
days and 40 nights. I rained so much that even the tops of the mountains were
covered with water!
After it stopped raining, Noah sent a dove out to see if there was any dry land.
The dove finally came back with an olive leaf in its beak.
When Noah and his family left The Ark, Yahweh made a promise to
Noah and to us.
The promise was that the earth would never be all covered with
water again.
Yahweh gave Noah a sign of His promise. That sign was a rainbow.
Have you seen a rainbow? Here are a few pictures of rainbows:

This is a rainbow in Maine. |
This is a rainbow right above
the water beneath the Falls. |
Memory Verse
Whenever the rainbow appears
in the clouds, I will see it and remember
the everlasting covenant between YAHWEH
and all living creatures of every
kind on the earth."
Genesis 9:16
