The natural phenomenon of the bow reminds us of the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that is upon the earth. (Gen. 9:16). When I live through each season of seed-time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and every day as day turns into night and night into day, I'm reminded of God's promise in Genesis 8:22 that these natural phenomena shall not cease as long as the earth remains. When I step out to my back yard and look at the stars on a cloudless night or take a short drive to admire the majestic mountains and the clear, cool mountain streams near my home, I exult with the Psalmist: "The heavens declare the glory of God, and the firmament showeth his handiwork." (Psalm 19:1) And, in humble adoration, I pray: "When I consider thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars, which thou hast ordained, What is man that thou art mindful of him? And the son of man, that thou visitest him?" (Psalm 8:3,4). []Portland[] | ||||||

What is the everlasting covenant that the bow represents? Genesis 9:11 And I will establish my covenant with you; neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood; neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth. [KJV] Everytime I see the bow I remember that God will not destroy us with a flood ever again. I am reminded that God's wrath will come with fire. 2 Peter 3:10-13 But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in the which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up. [11] Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be in all holy conversation and godliness, [12] Looking for and hasting unto the coming of the day of God, wherein the heavens being on fire shall be dissolved, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat? [13] Nevertheless we, according to his promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. [KJV] We must be ready to be a witness (martyr) to everyone we meet. We must be ready to give evidence by our lives (the way we live), the way we face adversity, the way we love one another, the way we forgive, of the gospel of the Kingdom of God. When you see the bow acknowledge God as the creator and be reminded the time is short. |
