Gen 9:15 (KJV) And I will remember my covenant, which is between me and you
and every living creature of all flesh; and the waters shall no more become
a flood to destroy all flesh.

Gen 9:16 (KJV) And the bow shall be in the cloud; and I will look upon it,
that I may remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth.

Gen 9:17 (KJV) And God said unto Noah, This is the token of the covenant,
which I have established between me and all flesh that is upon the earth.

Now that we have established that our LORD won't ever flood the earth
again, does that mean he might destroy it with fire? When the final
trumpant blows, all will bow to our Lord Jesus.

Joe 2:1 (KJV) Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the
LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand;

Joe 2:2 (KJV) A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of
thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people
and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations.

Joe 2:3 (KJV) A fire devoureth before them; and behind them a flame burneth: the land is as the garden of Eden before them, and behind them a desolate wilderness; yea, and nothing shall escape them.

Php 2:10 (KJV) That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things
in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;

Php 2:11 (KJV) And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is
Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

What a great God we serve. Do you remember the Garden of Eden that we had discussed in an earlier session? It will be restored.

Rev 22:1 (KJV) And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.

Rev 22:2 (KJV) In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the
healing of the nations.

Rev 22:3 (KJV) And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and
of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him:

Rev 22:4 (KJV) And they shall see his face; and his name shall be in their foreheads.

Rev 22:5 (KJV) And there shall be no night there; and they need no candle, neither light of the sun; for the Lord God giveth them light: and they
shall reign for ever and ever.

Isn't that a sight to see? Jesus is Coming ya'll. My prayer is that all
will be ready. It's not too late to repent, believe that Jesus had died for your sins, let the word speak to you and pray while you have a conversation with our Lord Jesus.

We are here now because HE wanted a family, not by our own choosing. So far we've discussion the creation of Adam and Eve to the Flood of the Earth, now
on to The Tower of Babel.

For some reason, men thought they could reach a way to Heaven. They were
sadly mistaken.

Gen 11:1 (KJV) And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.

Wouldn't that be nice? You can imagine what's about to happen next.

Gen 11:4 (KJV) And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower,
whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.

Gen 11:6 (KJV) And the LORD said, Behold, the people is one, and they have
all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be
restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.

Gen 11:7 (KJV) Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language,
that they may not understand one another's speech.

Now you know why there are so many languages. Man wanted to be in control, just like the Fall of Adam, the fallen angel and anyone else trying to be better than God; trying to intervene God's plan.

May peace rest with you.
