The Faithful Light In The Sky

"The rainbow shall be in the cloud, and I will look on it to remember the everlasting covenant between God and every living creature of all flesh that [is] on the earth."

Genesis 9:16

The unchanging nature of God is perhaps one of His most important qualities. If God is able to change, then His promises are subject to change. God has connected His promises to certain standards we can observe, proving His integrity. God promised He would never judge again by a global flood. The rainbow is God’s proof. The rainbow is a symbol of God’s glory as described in the testimonies of His eternal throne. The eternal glory of God’s throne was seen as a rainbow highly exalted above all creation. In this way, the constancy of the rainbow shows God’s greatness has not changed, so His ability to keep His promises is intact too!
