Check those planks!
Drawing on the story of Noah, this devotional reflects on how Noah spent years carefully building and sealing the ark, and was still checking its planks when the flood came. It calls viewers to examine and strengthen the foundational planks of their own lives before life's storms arrive.

It was over a hundred years since he built that boat. The keel had been laying a hundred years. He'd built all the planks, all the stuff. He'd taken bitumen, which is like tar, and painted the inside and painted the outside. I mean, it was ideal. And all the time animals are showing up that he'd never seen before. Elephants and lions and sheep and goats and all coming and laying around the ark. They didn't just show up the day before the flood. It took years for this thing to develop. When the rains came, where do you think Noah was? He was down in the boat making sure that all the leaks and all the boat were sound. All the planks were in place. And in your life today, listen to me, make sure the planks of your life are in place. If you do, it'll change your life.
