He attached a covenant (Genesis ch.9) to this decision, to teach us that the lack of another worldwide flood is deliberate on His part, and not just due to natural phenomena. And because of Noah's righteousness (Genesis 6:9), God spoke this covenant to him, instead of waiting and revealing it to some later deserving person.
