What if understanding your divine purpose could change how you perceive your life journey? Join me as we embark on a spiritual exploration filled with profound themes of truth and purpose, inspired by biblical stories. Transitioning to YouTube has opened a new avenue for sharing insights, where I encourage listeners to recognize their potential as "Diamonds in the Ruff." Together, we seek divine guidance for a fulfilling life, drawing inspiration from Enoch's unique relationship with God. His story stirs reflections on the longevity of life in biblical times, raising questions about its intended purpose for spiritual growth and preparation for eternity.

In this episode, we also immerse ourselves in prayerful reflections on the book of Genesis, often regarded as the book of creation. Through heartfelt prayers in the name of Jesus Christ, we express gratitude for the opportunity to share our insights and the divine narratives shaping our understanding of the world and faith. As we unravel the lineage from Adam to Enoch, we uncover the significant lessons these stories impart on our lives today. Before wrapping up, I invite you to join me tomorrow for another enlightening session and extend my wishes for a blessed day and night. Amen and hallelujah!

So let's get ready to pray.
We are two minutes in, so let'sdo it.
Father, we thank you so muchfor your grace and your mercy.
Thank you, god, for allowing usyet another day, a day that we

(02:08):
never see again.
Pray that we can be productiveas we go forth.
Pray, god, as I pour into youwhat you give me.
I pray, god, that somebodyreceives what it is you have for
, not just them, but me.
I pray, god, that you wouldspeak a word to us all that we
might be able to go forth yetanother day.
I pray, in the name of Jesus,for supernatural understanding.
God, supernatural, what am Ithinking?

(02:32):
The word that I need, god, sothat, as I pronounce these names
, that it will flow, flow like ariver of milk and honey.
God, have your way in andthrough me.
Bless every, every ear andevery heart as they listen, as
they learn, as they grow.
I pray God, god, you'll haveyour way.

(02:53):
We thank you, god, and we prayfor that one that said pray for
me.
We lift up my brothers andsisters in Christ all around the
world that they would beblessed by what they hear.
Father, we love you and wethank you In Jesus Christ's name
.
We do pray, amen, amen,hallelujah.
I heard y'all.

(03:13):
So we left off.
We had two guests.
That was really talking aboutleadership, talking about
changing your mind, talkingabout not having a victim
mindset, amen.
And when we left off withlearning and living truth, we're
talking about the descendantsof Adam and Eve and the lineage

(03:41):
and how we begin to break downthe children of the children of
the children of the children ofthe children.
Come on, somebody, hallelujah.
So that's where we were Leftoff with verse 20.
When we were together withLearning to Live and True, and
we have finished up with Jared'sdescendants.
So today we're going to pick upthere, verse 21, with Enoch's

(04:05):
descendants.
Amen, enoch is the son of Seth,so it would be the grandson of
Adam.
Okay, these are the children ofEnoch.
It says verse 21,.
And Enoch lived sixty and fiveyears and begat Methuselah,

(04:27):
methuselah, no, methuselah, andEnoch walked with God.
After he begat, methuselah andEnoch walked with God after he
begat Methuselah 300 years andbegat sons and daughters, and
all the days of Enoch were 365years.
And Enoch walked with God andhe was not.

(04:48):
But God took him.
Okay, hallelujah.
So we read here that out of allof the children thus far that
is mentioned, enoch was aboutthe business of God and it said
he didn't die.
God took him.
So they have no evidence of himdying, like God just took him.

(05:12):
You know the rapture they say,uh, or the bible teaches us that
you know, one will be workingin in the in the yard and the
other will just be taken up.
Yeah, two will be together andjust the other one will just be
gone.
Yeah, so I could have justimagined for a moment this is
what happened to Enoch.
He just kind of was gone.
Yeah, he was there one momentand then the next he was gone.

(05:34):
Amen.
So verse 25 he says andMethuselah lived in 187 years
and begat Lamech and Methuselahlived after he begat Lamech 782
years.
And we got sons and daughtersand all the days of Methuselah

(06:02):
were 95.
No, I'm sorry, sorry, wait aminute.
They were 969 years and he died.
And just for a moment, as I wasreading, I kind of thought for a
second like these people liveso long?
Right, and you have to wonderwhy these people live so long.

(06:24):
But Enoch only lived 365 years,and he was the only one that's
mentioned.
That was about the business ofGod.
So are y'all following me?
Are you getting what I'mthinking?
What I'm thinking, it's likemaybe they're here, maybe people
that live so long, maybe it'sbecause there's some things in

(06:47):
their life that God is bringinginto order so that they can live
for eternity with Him.
Amen, hallelujah.
I mean, you know, you know.
I mean, when you think about it, it's like when you look at it,
looking at it from thisperspective, it's like maybe
that's why people, they live aslong as they do.
Maybe that's why yeah, becauseit's things in our lives that

(07:10):
need to be worked out and itmight take just that long for it
to get worked out so that whenthey do leave the earth, they
have the opportunity to be withjesus and not die death because
they never turned their heartover to him.
Come on, it's something tothink about, right?
Yeah, let's go on to 28.

(07:32):
He says and Lamech lived 182years and begat a son.
And then this is.
Another thing that interests meis that how long it took for
them to have children, comparedto us in our day now.
Right Verse 29,.
He said, and he called his nameNoah, saying this same shall

(07:56):
come.
This same shall come for usconcerning our work and toil of
our hands, because of the groundwhich the Lord hath cursed.
Okay, he says.
And Lamech lived after.
He begat Noah 595 years andbegat sons and daughters.

(08:18):
And all the days of Lamech were777 years and he died and Noah
was 500 years old.
Noah begat Shem Ham and Japheth, chapter 6, y'all Moving on.
J-fat, chapter 6, y'all Movingon.

(08:40):
He said and it came to pass whenmen begat or began to multiply
on the face of the earth anddaughters were born unto them.
And the sons of God saw thedaughters of men, that they were
fair, fair as pretty, and theytook them wives of all which
they chose.
And they took them wives of allwhich they chose.
And the Lord said my spiritshall not always strive with man
, for that he also is flesh, yethis days shall be an hundred

(09:06):
and twenty years.
And there were giants in theearth In those days and also
after that, when the sons of Godcame in unto the daughters of
men and they bare children tothem.
They became mighty men whichwere old men of renown.
God saw that the wickedness ofman was great in the earth and

(09:30):
that every imagination of thethoughts of his heart was only
evil continually.
And it repented the Lord thathe had made man on the earth and
it grieved him at his heart.
He had made man on the earthand he grieved him at his heart.
And the Lord said I willdestroy man, whom I have created
, from the face of the earth,both man and beast, and the

(09:52):
creeping thing and the fowls ofthe air, for it repented.
Yet he that I have made them soI'm just pausing for a second
here.
Now, age with the descendantsand Noah's the last one talked
about, talked about thus far,and now we transition into God

(10:14):
begins to look at the heart ofman and the fact that their
heart was wrong, was not for himand they were just doing their
own thing.
He just wished that he hadn't.
He wanted to turn that thingaround, because that word
repented means to stop and turn.
So here he just stopped.

(10:35):
He says you know, I willdestroy man and beast and
everything that's on the earthBecause they're not doing it the
way I wanted them to do it.
In a sense, yeah, they're notdoing it the way that I had
planned for them to do it.
They're busy following theirflesh and not the spirit.

(10:57):
And you know, I mean especiallyout in my area in Virginia, in
the Central Park.
I mean in the last, just in thelast week, there's been four
murders.
Last week it's been fourmurders, four homicides.
I don't know what that's about,but it's like what is going on.

(11:18):
It's like sudden, it's kind ofone of those things that's been
building up.
Then it's kind of one of thosethings that's kind of been
building up and then it's a lotof accidents and things of that
nature that are happening.
And it's like God is tired.
He's tired of the flesh.

(11:40):
I'm going to say the flesh, notthe spirit.
Yeah, the flesh, and what theflesh does.
The flesh leads to death at theend of the day.
And you can do all you want totry to pretend like you don't,
but you know you'll know them bytheir fruit.
This is what the bible teachesus.
You'll know them by their fruit, where their heart is.

(12:01):
Yeah, and the Lord himself, heexamines the fruit of his people
.
He said I wish I hadn't evenmade them now.
So now I'm going to turn thisthing around.
Yeah, I'm going to turn itaround, because wickedness will

(12:22):
not prevail over righteousness.
Come on somebody, hallelujah.
Look at verse 8.
He says but noah found grace inthe eyes of the lord.
He said these are thegeneration of noah.
Noah was a just man and perfectin his generation and noah
walked with god.
And noah begat three sons, shemham, jayfay.

(12:47):
The earth also was corruptbefore god and the earth was
filled with violence.
You hear me?
I just said we, in our just,where I live, there have been
four murders back to back, oneafter the other.
Each day has been one.
It's like he says, the earthwas filled with violence.
God looked upon the earth andbeheld it was corrupt, for all

(13:10):
flesh had corrupted his way uponthe earth.
So his way had been established.
But flesh got in the way andflesh began to follow flesh, he
said.
And God said unto Noah the endof all flesh has come before me
and the earth is filled withviolence through them.
And behold, I will destroy themwith the earth.

(13:34):
We have to know that God isabout peace, he's about love,
he's not about hatred andviolence and hurt and harm and
all of that.
He's not about that.
He'll get rid of it before helets it take rule.
These people chose not tofollow his way.
When people choose not tofollow his way and the devil

(13:58):
thinks that he's got a footholdover God's people, he will
destroy it.
People of God, we in a time wereally must be prayed up,
because the reality is there isso much violence in this world,
all over the world.
I mean, it's all kinds ofthings happening in the world.

(14:21):
It's a whole bunch of stuff.
That's like what is going on,but that's the world we live in.
People of God, we need to bepraying, not just for ourselves,
but be praying for this world.
Hallelujah, we must be praying.
So I'm going to stop rightthere.
When we pick up tomorrow, we'retalking about building the ark.

(14:42):
Okay, building the ark we'regoing to pick up on tomorrow.
So y'all, make sure y'all comeon back to continue with me as
we continue to read out Genesis,as far as the Lord said.
So, before we transition overinto YouTube and I can see your
beautiful faces, at least beable to see your comments and

(15:04):
things of that nature, Because Iknow I will be going live at
least once a week, if not twice,and then I'll be putting up
videos as I am now.
You'll be able to actually seeme teaching the video versus
just hearing the video, yeah, solet's pray.

(15:28):
Father, we thank you so much foryour grace and your mercy.
Thank you for our word today,thank you for this lesson, and I
just pray, god, that we wouldall take heed to your word that
even in creation, what is goingon now, it was going on then,
and that, as children of god,that we ought to pray for our
brothers and sisters.
Pray for those who are not apart of the family of God.
Pray for them that they comeinto you, come into your ways

(15:52):
and leave and abandon their own.
They would learn to follow thespirit and not the flesh.
Give their hearts to you.
I pray, god, that we can beyour hands and feet.
God, that we will be ready andwilling to be used by you as we
are your vessels.
Father, we love you so much andwe just want to please you.
We pray that this prayer, ourprayer, is pleasing in your

(16:16):
sight.
Again, we pray for that onethat said pray for me.
We pray, god, that you willcontinue to make a way out of no
way.
You are the way maker, father,we love you so much.
It's so very grateful.
I'm so thankful, god, that Iknow you.
So grateful God, that I'mcommitted to you.
So grateful, god, that you havecalled me into this place where
I can be a helping hand to mybrothers and my sisters.

(16:39):
We love you.
Now, god, in Jesus Christ's name, we do pray.
Amen.
You now, god, in Jesus Christ'sname, we do pray.
Amen, Amen and amen, hallelujah.
I hope that y'all will come onback with me tomorrow as we
continue to go forth, as I said,as we journey through this
great book of Genesis.
I call it the book of creation.
Amen, the very beginning,hallelujah.
