Have you ever stared at a rainbow and taken in its beauty? To think it’s the colors of visible light separated by refraction. If you stare long enough, God’s Spirit reveals an even deeper experience. It reminds us of one of His oldest promises in the Bible. A rainbow was a sign reminding Noah that God would never flood the entire earth again. It’s an eternal covenant. That means it will never happen to this earth again. So the next time you see a rainbow, remember God’s promise. It’s one that displays His enormous love for us, so much so, that He gave us a sign as a reminder, for every generation to come.
12 Then God said, “I am giving you a sign of My covenant with you and with all living creatures, for all generations to come. 13 I have placed My rainbow in the clouds. It is the sign of My covenant with you and with all the earth. 14 When I send clouds over the earth, the rainbow will appear in the clouds, 15 and I will remember My covenant with you and with all living creatures. Never again will the floodwaters destroy all life. 16 When I see the rainbow in the clouds, I will remember the eternal covenant between God and every living creature on earth.” 17 Then God said to Noah, “Yes, this rainbow is the sign of the covenant I am confirming with all the creatures on earth.”
Genesis 9:12-17
