"What did it mean for Enoch to walk with God?"

Genesis 5:18-24 is a short paragraph about his life, and it shines like a diamond amid the earthly record of deaths. In a storyline where the funeral bells tolled out their mournful drone (“and he died” is repeated eight times in the chapter), there is a ray of hope... Enoch walked with God.

What did it mean for Enoch to walk with God? It describes Enoch’s close communion with God—as if literally walking by His side. Also, it refers to Enoch’s unswerving obedience to God in a corrupt culture. God rewarded Enoch’s faithfulness by taking him to heaven while he was still alive. Death would not have the final word in God’s creation. Enoch’s walk with God reminds us that it is possible for all of us to enjoy intimate communion with the Lord.

Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him.

Genesis 5:24

Heaven

I SAY WHAT A WAY TO GO OH What A Way To Go We Will Rejoice IN THY SALVATION And In The Name Of Our God We Will Set Up Our Banners THE LORD FUFIL ALL Thy Petitions Now Know I That The Lord Saveth His Anointed He Will Hear Him From Hes Holy Heaven WITH SAVING STRENTH OF HIS RIGHT HAND, Some Trust In Chariots And Some In Horses But We Will Remembear The Name Of The Lord Our God They THEY ARE BROUGHT DOWN AND FALLEN BUT WE ARE RISEN BLESSINGS AND STRENETH KATS
