Our SuperVerse is Hebrews 11:7a:

It was by faith that Noah built a large boat to save his family from the flood. He obeyed God, who warned him about things that had never happened before. 

At first, Noah was probably surprised and overwhelmed by what God asked him to do. It was a huge task to prepare for something that the world had never experienced before: rain would come down from the sky and water would come up from under the ground, causing a flood that would cover the entire world. Have you ever been asked to perform a task that was so big, you weren’t sure if you could do it? How did you feel?

Noah’s response was to have faith and obey God completely even though the task was huge!

Noah’s neighbors probably shook their heads in disbelief as he worked for so many years to build an ark. The people in the world did not fear God as Noah did. They believed they could do whatever they wanted, and there would be no consequences. But did Noah let that stop him?

Their opinions did not affect Noah. His reverence and respect for God was too great. Noah knew that God was in control of heaven and Earth, and by faith he remained obedient to God.  

Let’s say our SuperVerse together. Hebrews 11:7a:

It was by faith that Noah built a large boat to save his family from the flood. He obeyed God, who warned him about things that had never happened before.

Divide the children into groups of four. If your class is small, you may have children work in groups of two or three. Give a set of SuperVerse Cards to each group. Don’t let them open the envelope until you say “Go,” then have them race to see which group can arrange their cards in the correct order first.    

Noah, by faith, obeyed what God told him, even though many years went by before the rain began to fall. Noah and his family were spared God’s judgment because Noah obeyed and feared God.
