Whenever the rainbow appears in the clouds, I will see it and remember the everlasting covenant between God and all living creatures of every kind on the earth.
Genesis 9:16
A rainbow is very significant in the eyes of a child of God; It means more than just an arc with a dazzling array of colors as some see it to be. We as Christians should all draw a sense of God’s presence and protection upon seeing this symbol of His love and awareness… Today’s focus verse reminds us of the fact that God will give us signs of His existence and attendance in our everyday affairs and lives; however, it is our task and duty to see the signs for what they are instead of being too bogged down or occupied with the cares of this world to notice them… This devotion speaks to those who say that they are waiting on the Lord and have not received an answer, the truth of the matter is that God has given you the answer already; it's just in a form that you did not expect it to be… You have been dealing with trials and tribulations, you have been praying and waiting, instead of showing up and showing out. You're waiting for God to do the unthinkable instead of moving in Faith knowing that he has shown signs of his power. God should not have to move and perform for you to trust Him... A rainbow is a sign of his presence, today let you find strength and comfort in the signs of His presence instead of waiting for His deliverance... Your breakthrough and victory are in the sign and not God simply overthrowing your adversary. For the believer in Christ, the answer is in the rainbow spoken of in this passage taken from the book of Genesis… You are protected, you are safe and you are going to be victorious in the affairs of life because of the symbolic meaning of the rainbow spoken of in today’s focus verse... The rainbow to Noah was a sign of God’s commitment to him and the land; God is committed to us and is with us through all we go through; sometimes we don’t see Him or acknowledge His presence because of the things we face, but the reality is that He has been there the whole time! Through your storms, look for the rainbow, look for the light of hope, look for God’s presence, and know that He is always with you…
ALL FOR HIS GLORY!!!
