God's promise to Noah, recorded in Genesis 9:11, has been kept for over 4,000 years, and there has never been another worldwide flood. This covenant is a testament to God's faithfulness and power, and it stands in contrast to the claims of evolutionists who insist that the Earth is 4.6 billion years old and never experienced a global flood.

Welcome to the Days of Praise podcast, a daily devotional by the Institute for Creation Research. The Lasting Noahic Covenant. And I will establish my covenant with you. Neither shall all flesh be cut off any more by the waters of a flood, neither shall there any more be a flood to destroy the earth. Genesis 9, eleven.
When God gave Noah this promise, the world had just been through the devastating cataclysm that flooded the entire globe and destroyed all except those on the ark. The world was fearful and barren, and there seemed nothing to prevent another such flood from coming on the earth. Nevertheless, God's promise, not only to Noah but also to the animals, has been kept for over 4,000 years. God later reminded Job of this promise when he told him that he had shut up the seas with doors, and said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further. And here shall thy proud waves be stayed.
Job thirty eight eight and eleven. The psalmist also referred to this covenant. When the whole earth had been covered with the deep as with a garment, the water stood above the mountains. At thy rebuke they fled. Thou hast set a bound that they may not pass over, that they turn not again to cover the earth.
Psalm 104, 6-7 and 9. God has kept his word, and there has never been another worldwide flood. Sadly, however, many modern compromising Christian theologians and scientists have said that the flood must have been only a local or regional flood in order, they hope, to please the evolutionists, practically all of whom insist that the Earth is 4.6 billion years old and never experienced any global flood. If that were true, however, then God has broken his promise. There have been numerous local and regional floods in the world since Noah's day.
But God has kept his promise. The flood indeed was a unique cataclysm in which the world that then was being overflowed with water perished. And such a flood has never occurred again.
