Sunday Morning Volume 1

Chapter 10 Walk With Me Lord (Genesis 5:22-24 KJV) And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters: And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years: And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him. Genesis chapter five is like a cemetery, or it reads more like an obituary column. If and when you get the opportunity, read Genesis chapter five, verse five. "And all of these days that Adam lived were nine hundred and thirty years," and notice the next phrase, “and he died.”And then verse eight. And all of the days of Seth were nine hundred and twelve years," but notice the refrain, "and he died." Now look at verse eleven. "All of the days of Enos were nine hundred and five years and he died." We could go on talking about death hall of fame, and he died and he died and he died and he died, it reads like an obituary column. But! There is one name that stands out, and it is the name of Enoch. I. Enoch's Relationship with God: Enoch, the seventh generation from Adam, was a very special person, a man that followed his religion. Enoch had no Jack in a box religion. He walked by faith and not by feeling. Enoch walked so closely with God in consistent fellowship that God took him to heaven without him ever experiencing death. He was God's first astronaut. Here is the creature, God's master piece in constant contact with our creator, dust with divinity, finite with the infinite. Enoch made God's word and promises his rule and always glorified Him. God's word was the rule of his faith. All his actions were directed to the glory of God who, the Heavens declared his glory. Enoch's spiritual communion and fellowship grew as the years evaporated. The fellowship that Enoch enjoyed with God was not an infrequent relationship. Where we just walk with Him whenever we need Him; and sit down when we are fifteen cents above bus fair. His relationship was a rather ongoing way of lifestyle. What a marvelous walk with the Lord, for three hundred years. His walk was not a dash, a soar, a dive, a sprint, but a steady and continuous walk. It seems difficult for Christians today to walk with God for a single day. However, Enoch’s heart was in harmony with God's will. There were others, who were dedicated to the cause of righteousness, and had fellowship with God and one another. But here is a man that had a continued walk with God and He took him.
