“The bow shall be seen in the cloud.”
- Gen_9:14
The rainbow, the symbol of the covenant with Noah,
is typical of our Lord Jesus, who is the Lord’s witness to the people.
God’s rainbow is hung over the cloud of our sins,
our sorrows, and our woes,
to prophesy deliverance.
It is said that when we see the rainbow the shower is over.
Certain it is, that when Christ comes, our troubles remove;
when we behold Jesus, our sins vanish,
and our doubts and fears subside.
When Jesus walks the waters of the sea,
how profound the calm!
C.H. Spurgeon
