WALKING WITH GOD
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
In Genesis 3:8 we read that Adam and Eve heard God walking in the garden
|
||
|
|
in the cool of the day. One can assume that they were accustomed to the sound
|
||
|
|
and that God did this often. Can you imagine walking with God and having a
|
||
|
|
casual conversation? When sin entered the picture this relationship was
|
||
|
|
broken.
|
||
|
|
In Revelation we read where this relationship will once again be restored
|
||
|
|
in chapter 21 verses 1-3. 'And I (John) saw a new heaven and a new earth; for
|
||
|
|
the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no
|
||
|
|
longer any sea. And I saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down out
|
||
|
|
of heaven from God, made ready as a bride adorned for her husband. And I
|
||
|
|
heard a loud voice from the throne saying 'Behold, the tabernacle of
|
||
|
|
God is among men, and He shall dwell among them...'. We will once again
|
||
|
|
walk with God!
|
||
|
|
Isn't that great! One thing is missing from this story - God walked with
|
||
|
|
man one other time between Genesis and Revelation. He came to earth as a man
|
||
|
|
named Jesus and as in the beginning man rejected Him and nailed Him to the
|
||
|
|
cross. The picture we see in Revelation is possible only for those who
|
||
|
|
accept the sacrifice Jesus made on the cross.
