Bible Commentary

Genesis 7:5

This is the second time we see this exact statement about Noah. His obedience was not a one-time event — it was a pattern, a habit of life. Faithful people are consistently faithful.

Memory phrase: Faithful again and again.

Talk about it: Why does it matter that Noah obeyed God again — not just once but every time?

Prayer: God, help me to obey You not just once, but every day.
