God’s Word must be so strongly fixed in our minds that it becomes the dominant influence in our thoughts, our attitudes, and our actions. One of the most effective ways of influencing our minds is through memorizing Scripture. David said, “I have hidden Your Word in my heart that I might not sin against You” (Psm. 119:11).

The man watching the animals is Noah. He has finished the ark that God told him to build. It took him a great while to finish it. And all the time that he was working on it he used to talk to the wicked people who would not mind God. He begged them to mind him, and he told them about the rain that was coming after a while to drown every wicked person. But they would not listen to Noah or believe what he said. So now he cannot talk to them any more; he must go away and leave them alone. He is taking his sons and his daughters, and all the animals and birds, with him into the ark. There are a great many of them, but there is room for them all. The ark is very large. God makes the birds and the animals willing to go in. Noah has taken enough food for them to eat while they will be in the ark. As soon as Noah and his family, and the animals, and the birds, were all safe in the ark, God shut the door. And after seven days the rain began, and it rained without stopping forty days and forty

We all know and believe
And there’s more than what we see
Eternity is deep inside our hearts
So we watch and wait, until that day
When in a flash this world will pass away

Heaven and earth will kiss each other

The sun will rise and light a brand-new day
Every knee will bow unto Your name
All the saints will shout and sing Your glory
As a matter of fact, it’s a matter of faith
It’s a matter of faith

New clothes, new names
Every teardrop is wiped away
Fears gone, love and peace remain
From the east to the west, the sky splits wide
In the blink of an eye, our two worlds collide

Heaven and earth have kissed each other

The sun will rise and light a brand-new day
Every knee will bow unto Your name
All the saints will shout and sing Your glory
As a matter of fact, it’s a matter of faith
It’s a matter of faith

So even when it seems so long to watch and wait
Still our hearts are full of yearning for that day
And even in the dead of night, we walk by faith
Lord, we stand upon the promise that You made

The sun will rise and light a brand-new day
Every knee will bow unto Your name
All the saints will shout and sing Your glory
As a matter of fact

The sun will rise and light a brand-new day
Every knee will bow unto Your name
All the saints will shout and sing Your glory
As a matter of fact, it’s a matter of faith
It’s a matter of faith
