Chapter 4 - The Birth of Cain and Abel
Chapter 5 - Age and death of the patriarchs
Chapter 6 - Noah finds grace
What do we learn from this lesson?
1. “Be sure your sin will find you out.” Cain found this out. We can bury our
sin as deep as we please but they are never really hid from the eyes of God.
2. In times of crisis, men will pray. After the events of the death of Abel,
things became such that God brought prayer into existence. From that time on,
men of God and others have turned to God in prayer or uttered a prayer in times
of fear and death.
3. What a wonderful life to have lived! To one day walk no longer through the
trials of life, but suddenly walk with God in His heavenly home.
4. Sometimes we wonder how much longer can the Lord put up with present
conditions on earth! Perhaps these are the days God is giving Christians a
second chance at seeking to change the thinking of all men. Perhaps a worldwide
turning to God is the only way of avoiding the final day of this age.
5. The desire of every Christian is to find grace in the eyes of God. Grace as
Noah found. Grace which saved him and his entire family.
6. The flood is a realistic sign as to what God can do if He so chooses. God
grant that we too shall find mercy, grace and forgiveness of sin and enjoy
eternal life with Him.
Prayer:
O God, We pray for the sins of our nation and of the whole world. Please grant
us more time and greater perseverance in winning the world for Thee. Amen.
