About Him!
Devotional
By faith Enoch
was taken up that he should not see death; and he was not found because God took
him up; and he obtained the witness that before his being taken up he was
pleasing to God. Hebrews 11:5 NASV
The translation
of Enoch foreshadows what is in store for the believer.
Enoch had faith,
he pleased God and avoided an earthly death.
There are
similaries between us and Enoch:
-
The faith that
we exercized when we bowed at Calvary is just as pleasing to God as that of
Enoch.
-
When we place
our faith in the blood of Jesus, God sees us as perfect.
-
The believer
has the promise that he will never die (John 11:26).
-
We believers
have the promise of being caught up, just like Enoch, and spending eternity
with our Lord (ICor. 15:51-55;I Thes.4:17;I Jn.
3:2).
As my daddy
always said, "Keep Looking Up!"
