WALKING WITH GOD Lilaclady Junebug2

 

 WALKING WITH GOD 

            THE SHEEP AND THE SHEPHERD

 Lilaclady Junebug2 

GENESIS 5.18 - 25

18. And Jared lived an hundred years, and he begat Enoch: 

19. And Jared lived after he begat Enoch eight hundred years 

and begat sons and daughters. 

20. And all the days of Jarod 

were nine hundred sixty and two years: 

and he died. 

21. And Enoch lived sixty and five years

and begat Methuselah;

22. And Enoch walked with God 

after he begat Methuselah three hundred 

                              sixty and five years: 

24. And Enoch walked with God: and he was not;

for God took him.


               LET ME STATE THIS AGAIN...

ENOCH LIVED THE SHORTEST LIFE OF ALL

THE PATRIARCHS LISTED IN GENESIS CHAPTER 5.

 i HAVE DONE THE MATH. 

I TAKE MY BIBLE SERIOUSLY, AND

SO I SAY THAT I BELIEVE THEY 

LIVED AS LONG AS IT SAYS THEY DID.

SO LET ME EXPLAIN SOMETHING.

ENOCH WAS NO DIFFERENT 

THAT ANYONE ELSE

EXCEPT THAT HE 

WALKED WITH GOD.

There were ten patriarch of 

the Hebrew people listed:

ADAM  lived 930 years

SETH  lived 912 years 

ENOS lived 905 years 

CAINAN lived 910 years

MAHALALEEL lived 895 years

JARED lived 962 years 

ENOCH lived 365 years

METHUSELAH lived 969 years

LAMECH lived  777 years 

NOAH was 500 years old 

when the FLOOD came.

i WORKED OUT A CHART
WITH THESE DATES 
AND I NOTICED SOMETHING
ABOUT ENOCH.
ALTHOUGH HIS LIFE WAS 
THE SHORTEST
ALL OF THE PATRIARCHS 
EXCEPT FOR NOAH 
WERE ALL ALIVE 
WHILE HE WAS LIVING.

With my figuring the math

I found that it was 1600 years
to the time when the FLOOD came.
Enoch called his son "METHUSELAH" 
Meth  = death 
Selah =  Think about it
When he died, Think about it!
So Enoch was a sgn that God 
was going to send judgment when
Methuselah died.
And Methuseh was the father of 
Lamech 
who was the father of 
Noah
"and they named him No'e" 
because "this same 
would comfort us' 
because of the sin curse
on the world.

So Methuselah was Noah's 
GRANDFATHER
and 
ENOCH 
was the GREAT GRANDFATHER

God took Enoch.   
He walked with God, and he was not, 
For God took him.

My !  I wonder how many
noticed.
I wonderf. 
Only Noah and his Wife,
The three sons,
Ham, Shem, and Japheth 
went into the Ark when it was done.

Enoch named him for 
a reason.

As you look around, 
it is any different today?
It says of the world 
at that time 
Genesis 5. And God saw that 
the wickedness of man 
was great on the earth, and 
that every imagination 
of the thoughts of his heart
was only evil continually.
v.6.  And it repented the LORD 
that he had made man on 
the earth, and it 
grieved him 
at his heart.

    Well now.  If you remember
God always IS  WAS AND WILL BE 
but Man was intended to 
be in a relationship
with God.

When God made the world and 
everything in it, 
He put the man in the garden to
do the care and tend to every thing there.
He told Adam and Eve to 
multiply and to have children
BEFORE 
SIN CAME INTO THE WORLD.
So it was not the 
curse 
that brought work into our lives.
It was not 
having children 
that was cursed.
No. 
It was simply that
because of Adam's responsibilty 
to sin 
to refuse to obey
to turn agains what he knew
to choose to take of 
the forbidden fruit

HE BROUGHT SIN
AND DEATH
INTO THE WORLD

And yet, here we have 
recorded that 
Enoch was 
telling people 
about the Lord
and warning them
of the coming 
JUDGMENT.

Jude in the New
Testament says 
Jude v. 14 And Enoch also, 
the seventh from Adam, 
prophesied of these, 
saying,
Behold, the LORD cometh
with ten thousands
of the saints, 
v. 15 to execute judgment
upon all, 
and to convince all
that are ungodly
among them
of their ungodly deeds 
which they have 
ungodly committed, 
and of all their hard 
speeches which 
ungodly sinners 
have spoken against him.

In Titus, chapter 2
Paul tells in v. 11 
That "the grace of God that bringeth
salvation hath appeared to all men, 
v.12 teaching us that, denying 
ungodliness
and worldly lusts, 
we should live soberly,
righteously,
and godly 
in this present world;
v.13 looking for that 
blessed hope, 
and the glorious appearing
of the great God and our Saviour
Jesus Christ; 
v.14 who gave himself 
for us, that he might 
redeem 
us 
from all iniquity, 
and purify
unto himself
a peculiar people, 
zealous of good works.

SO YOU SEE WHY I TOLD YOU
ALL THESE THINGS

Enoch's testimony was
known by all those
who lived before 
the FLOOD 
THAT GREAT FLOOD
that changed 
the world that was
to what it is now.

You and I can be
LIGHTS IN THIS WORLD
SHINING 
LIGHTING THE WAY
SHOWING A PATH
LEADING OTHERS
INTO 
THE RIGHT PATH
by 
example
by 
depending on 
the Bible 
God's Written Word
that gives us 
all that we need
to direct our path
and to show us the way
becasue 
WHEN WE ASK
JESUS 
TO SAVE US FROM OUR SIN
HE DOES JUST THAT
And makes us brand new

II Corinthians 5.21
For He hath made him to be sin 
for us, who knew no sin,
that we
might be made
the righteousness
of God in him.

Romans 6.5
For if we have been planted
together in the likeness 
of his death,
even so we shall
be also in the likeness
of his resurrection;
v.6 
Knowing this, that 
our old man is crucified
with him, that 
the body of sin
might be destroyed,
that 
HENCEFORTH
we shall not serve sin.
v. 7
for he that is dead is
freed from sin.
v. 8 
Now if we be dead 
with Christ, we 
believe that we shall
also LIVE WITH HIM.
v.9 
Knowing that Christ being raised
from the dead dieth no more; 
death hath no dominion 
over him. 
v.10 
For in that He died, he 
died unto sin once: but in that he 
liveth, he liveth unto God.
v.11. LIKEWISE 
RECKON
YE YOURSELVES
DEAD INDEED UNTO SIN, 
BUT ALIVE
UNTO GOD
THROUGH JESUS CHRIST
OUR LORD.

Romans 8.9 
But ye are not in the flesh, but 
in the Spirit, if so be 
that the Spirit of God
dwell in you. 
Now if any man have not 
the Spirit of Christ, 
he is none of his.
8.10 And if Christ be 
in you, 
the body is dead 
because of sin;
but the Spirit is life
because of righteousness.
v.11.  But if the
Spirit of him that raised
up Jesus from the dead
dwell in you, he that 
raised up Christ from
the dead shall also 
quicken your mortal 
bodies by his Spirit that 
dwelleth in you.

THEREFORE, 
brethren, 
ye are debtors, 
not to the flesh,
to live after the flesh
v.13. for if ye live
after the flesh, 
ye shall die; 
but if ye through 
the Spirit do mortify 
the deeds of the 
body,
ye shall live.
Romans 8.14. 
FOR AS MANY AS 
ARE LED BY THE 
SPIRIT OF GOD, 
THEY ARE 
THE 
SONS OF GOD.

ROMANS 3.23
For all have sinned
and come short 
of the glory of God.

ROMANS 6.23
For the wages of sin is death,
but the gift of God 
is eternal life 
through
Jesus Christ our Lord.

JOHN 3.16
For God so loved the 
world, that he 
gave his only 
begotten Son 
that whosoever 
believeth in him
should not perish,
but have everlasting life.

John 5.24
Verily, verily, I say
unto you, he that 
heareth my word, 
and believeth on him
that sent me, 
hath 
everlasting life; 
and shall not 
come into 
condemnation: 
but is passed
from death 
unto life.

Psalm 22 
shows us the Suffering 
of our Savior 
years before He came
to earth
to give His life.

Psalm 23 
shows us 
the Shepherd 
who leads the Sheep.

Jesus said 
"I am the good shepherd;
the good shepherd 
giveth his life 
for the sheep."

Jesus said 
My sheep hear my voice, 
and I know them,
and they follow me." 
John 10.27

Again, he said,
"And I give to them
eternal life; 
and they shall
never perish,
neither shall
any man
pluck them out 
of my hand.
John 10.29


And then he added,
I AND MY FATHER 
ARE ONE.  
John 10.30

In the beginning 
was the Word
and the Word
was with God,
and the 
Word was God.  
The same was in the 
beginning 
with God.
John 1.1,2.

John chapter 1.17
For the law came by Moses,
but grace and truth
came by 
Jesus Christ.
