Listen To The Noah’s Ark Story (Audio)
Once Upon a Time…
A long time ago, the world was filled with people who had forgotten about God. They did many wrong things, and their hearts were far from God. But there was one man named Noah who loved and obeyed God. Noah was kind and faithful, and God was pleased with him.
God’s Big Plan
One day, God spoke to Noah. “Noah,” He said, “the world has become very sinful, and I am going to send a great flood to wash away all the evil. But I will save you and your family because you are good and faithful. I want you to build a big ark (a boat) and take your family and two of every kind of animal aboard. I will keep you safe during the flood.”
Noah listened to God and began building the ark, even though he had never seen a flood before. It took a long time to build the massive boat, and many people laughed at Noah. They didn’t believe a flood was coming. But Noah trusted God and kept working.
The Ark is Ready
Finally, after many years, the ark was finished. It was huge and strong, just as God had told Noah. Then, Noah, his family, and two of every kind of animal—big and small, from elephants to birds—went into the ark. God closed the door of the ark, and soon, it began to rain.
The Great Flood
It rained and rained for 40 days and 40 nights. The water rose higher and higher until it covered the whole earth. But Noah, his family, and the animals were safe inside the ark, just as God had promised.
For many days, the ark floated on the water. Finally, the rain stopped, but the earth was still covered with water. Noah waited patiently, trusting that God would tell him when it was safe to leave the ark.
A Sign of Hope
After a long time, Noah sent out a dove to see if the water had gone down. The first time, the dove came back because it couldn’t find a dry place to land. But the second time, the dove returned with a fresh olive leaf in its beak! Noah knew that the water was going down, and soon the land would appear again.
After more waiting, God told Noah it was safe to leave the ark. Noah, his family, and all the animals stepped out into a fresh, clean world. They were thankful for God’s protection.
God’s Promise
To show His love, God placed a beautiful rainbow in the sky. He made a promise to Noah that He would never again send a flood to destroy the whole earth. The rainbow was a sign of God’s promise and His love for all living things.
Happily Ever After
Noah and his family lived happily in the new world, always remembering God’s love and faithfulness. They knew that no matter what, they could always trust in God’s promises.
