Lifted Above the Waters: God Preserves What He Saves — Living Genesis 7:20–24

As the flood reached its full strength, Lifted Above the waters’ rose higher than any mountain. Covering everything outside the ark. Yet within the rising judgment, God was still at work—preserving the life He had chosen to save.

📖 23 Every living thing on the face of the earth was wiped out; people and animals and the creatures that move along the ground and the birds were wiped from the earth. Only Noah was left, and those with him in the ark.24 The waters flooded the earth for a hundred and fifty days..” (Genesis 7:23-24 NIV)
