ENOCH WALKED WITH GOD

If we read Genesis 5:21-24 carefully, we will see that Enoch began his walk with God at the age of sixty-five and continued walking with Him for three hundred years.
He walked with God day after day for a period of three hundred years. Finally, God seemed to say, ‘‘Enoch, you have walked with Me long enough. Let Me take you to Myself.’’
Many Christians are fond of talking about the rapture and the coming of the Lord. Do you realize that rapture requires that you love the Lord and live in His presence?
We need to love the Lord. ‘‘Lord Jesus, I love You. I want to live in Your presence. I want to walk with You because I love You.’’
This loving attitude is the preparation, condition, and basis of being raptured. On what ground was Enoch raptured? He was raptured on the basis of his walk with God for a period of three hundred years. Enoch offered us an excellent example.
