How do we know that Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord?

Noah's grace before God is evidenced in Genesis 6:8, where it states that Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord. This grace was not based on Noah's merit but was a divine selection by God. Noah demonstrated his faith through obedience, as he complied with God's commandments to build the Ark, thereby saving his family from the impending judgment. His righteousness and faith positioned him as a pivotal figure in salvation history, drawing a parallel to how believers today find grace through faith in Christ (Ephesians 2:8-9).
