Genesis 9:21

Knowing what we want and pursuing our goals is not a bad thing, provided we walk in the light of God’s Word. While some people take steps in the right direction and become achievers, there are others who start out trying to make a statement and end up becoming a full stop. Gratifying our carnal inclinations brings us into conflict with our spirits. The choices we make lead to death or to life.

Life's storms challenge our mental health, producing anxiety, disappointment, and even despair. Hidden within Noah's story are reminders of God’s promises to us. This 5-day journey through Genesis 8-9 explores how God builds unsinkable hope amid life's storms. Through personal stories and biblical insights, Scott Savage helps you reset your expectations and discover genuine hope. Perfect for anyone navigating difficult seasons or struggling with their mental health.

Genesis reminds us that even after the flood, humanity’s struggle with sin didn’t wash away. Noah’s fresh start shows us that the real problem isn’t our circumstances—it’s the sin within us. Too often, we chase recognition instead of embracing God’s call to be a blessing. This devotional invites us to wrestle with those truths and discover what it means to live with God’s purpose at the center.

In this five day plan, we walk through Genesis 6 to 11 and watch the world unravel because of human sin, yet also see God’s surprising mercy at every turn. From the flood and God’s covenant with Noah to the rebellion at Babel, these chapters show a God who judges evil but refuses to abandon his creation. If you want greater clarity as you read Scripture, this plan will help you understand how these stories prepare us for Jesus, the one who carries our judgment and gathers the nations by his grace.
