Genesis 9

The Moving of the Spirit

Just before the flood would begin to recede we see a wind (the Hebrew word ‘ruah’) move across the earth. This is the same word for the Spirit of God we see moving across the formless, nascent earth in Genesis 1:2. This also remind us of God breathing life into Adam in Genesis 2:7.

We see the Spirit of God moving in these creative, world-altering events.

And all of this points toward the events of Pentecost in Acts 2:2 when the sound like a rushing wind came and filled the believers with the Spirit of God in a way that had not previously even experienced. Those men and women — empowered by God — changed the world. Forever.

Friends, submit your lives to the work and will of the Spirit of God. Where the Spirit of the Lord is moving, BIG things are happening!
