Enoch s faith claimed the righteousness of God, and his faith looked upon the celestial city. Day by day, week by week and year by year Enoch longed for that beautiful city to be with the God he served. Feeling was not enough, but faith took him to a higher level. Feelings would come and go, but faith stayed firmly fixed on the goal. Sensationalism and highly worked-up emotions will deceive you.
Faith stays on course.
A college professor told a story of a young seminary student who had just graduated. He was preaching two sermons every weekend in a church where he hoped the congregation would eventually call him to be a full time pastor. It was a large rural church, and the young graduate student stayed in the home of the chairman of the deacons. The young preacher was all fired up. He had his first sermon lined up in an organized manner, and he just knew the people would see what a great preacher he was.
