After years of warning, obedience. When the Floodgates Opened and waiting, the moment arrived when God’s word moved from promise to action. Genesis 7:11 marks the exact point when judgment began—not gradually, but decisively.
📖 “In the six hundredth year of Noah’s life, on the seventeenth day of the second month—on that day all the springs of the great deep burst forth, and the floodgates of the heavens were opened.” (Genesis 7:11, NIV)
This verse reveals that the flood was not merely rain—it was a complete release of judgment from above and below. The earth itself broke open, and the heavens responded. God’s control over creation was absolute.

Seek refuge in God before judgment arrives.
Genesis 7:11 reminds us that when God acts, all of creation responds. The flood did not begin quietly—it began by divine command.
