The Faith Walk

Hebrews 11:5-6

Introduction

God’s image in Adam was then reproduced in Seth, Adam’s son. The
capacities and qualities of a parent are passed on to his children by natural
reproduction.
Besides providing the link between Adam and his times and Noah and his, this
chapter has a motif that cannot be missed—and then he died
This was the end of every man. If one were in doubt whether the wages of sin is
death (Rom. 6:23), he need only look at human history.
In Enoch’s case, the statement was not made—as it was with the other males in
this genealogy—that he lived so many years and then died. Instead he walked with
God
“Walk” is the biblical expression for fellowship and obedience that results in divine
favor. Enoch’s walk lasted 300 years. No doubt his walk would have continued,
but God took him away (v.24)—he did not die. Such a walk was commanded of
Israel (Lev. 26:3, 11-13) and of the church.
Scripture uses this term “walk” often.
Psalm 23 says “Though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear
no evil.”  (Expound on this)
Jesus is further represented in the Gospels as walking and enabling others to walk
under conditions not normally given to men (Mk. 6:48). Here again, as Matthew’s
Gospel makes clear, the physical act has a spiritual significance (Mt. 14:31).
Walking can be understood as representative of the whole range of human activity
to which an impotent man is restored (Acts 3:6-10).
More frequently it stands for the whole manner of a man’s life and conduct, and
to the attitude which God takes up towards him, so that God can say: ‘If you …
walk contrary to me, then I also will walk contrary to you’ (Lv. 26:23-24).
Gen. 3:8 God came seeking to walk with Adam. God wants to walk with you.

Three main points
1. He Walked with God
2. He Pleased God
3. He Believed God
