Daily Devotion (Gen 4-7)

Re-birth

The wisdom that Adam and Eve received was death, wickedness and lust, the fruits witnessed in Cain's life and their grandchildren. God capped our life span at 120 years. From the fall of Adam, Satan's footprints were everywhere and devastated God's plan - Nephlim was mentioned in 6:4 to indicate the union of angels and human during the time of the wicked age.

God regretted His creation and decided to wipe out His creations. Noah was the only one that pleased God, the seed of His salvation plan. After 40 days of heavy rain and 150 days of flood on earth, the new world began afresh.

Today we are witnessing the similar spiritual outcry for justice. The flood killed physical objects of defiled beings, but not Satan's influence in our daily lives. Jesus came to save us from the curses we carried, liberate us from the influence of Satan, grant us the authority and power to defeat the enemy. Thank God for the wisdom!

Dear Father, thank you for your love for us. Grant me the wisdom to walk in you truth and away from lust and wickedness. Teach me to be still with discipline, so I can tune my ears to your instructions. Amen
