In the Old Testament we find two people meantioned by name who walked with God. I’ve struggled with this concept for 30 years.
I have a “Billism” a theory if you will, that the Lord God in the Old Testament is not one member of the Trinity but the Lord, (Jehovah, the Eternal One), is the Father. God, (Elohim, the creator, ruler), is Jesus, who sacrificed himself to the Father that we might have Salvation. (See The Trinity in the Old Testament).
So we find that when Enoch Walked with God, he was Walking with Jesus. Jesus said come on home.
When Noah Walked with God, he found grace (Salvation), in the Lords sight and was just and perfect in his generation. He was the heir of righteousness.
To Walk with Jesus is the Lords desire for whosoever will. Lord help us to learn to walk with you. Not ahead of, or behind but with, beside, in harmony, peace and grace. Help us to live this scripture:
Matthew 11:28-30
King James Version (KJV)
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.
I had a Bible teacher who taught us to look at this scripture like this:
Jesus said:
My yoke is easy and my burden is light.
So take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart : and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Lord help us to take up Your yoke and learn to Walk with You.
