In this episode, we explore the life of Noah as a powerful example of what it looks like to hear clearly from heaven and obey—even when it seems unreasonable. When God warned Noah of the coming destruction and gave him exact instructions, Noah didn’t delay—he obeyed with precision. His story is a reminder that hearing from God isn’t just inspirational, it’s often lifesaving. Aaron breaks down how righteousness (right standing with God) positions us to receive divine instruction, and how obedience to the smallest detail can carry eternal impact. In a world full of noise and corruption, we too can walk closely with God and receive direction. This message will help you trust the details God gives you, honor your righteousness in Christ, and respond with bold faith—just like Noah.
