In the land of Eden
“Oyez!’ “Oyez!” “Oyez”
A message from the King.
“Awake my love…come away with Me.”
Genesis 1:11,12. (Moffatt )
And God said, “Let the earth put out verdure,
plants that bear seed and trees yielding fruit of every kind, fruit with seed in it.”
And so it was; the earth brought forth verdure,
plants bearing seed of every kind and trees yielding fruit of every kind,
fruit with seed in it.
God saw that it was good.
“This morning as you awake, come away with Him!
You haven’t even begun to experience
what God has in store for those who love Him and obey Him.”
Genesis 2:8-15. ( Moffatt)
In the land of Eden, to the far east,
God the Eternal then planted a park,
where he put the man whom he had moulded.
And from the ground God the Eternal made all sorts of trees to grow that were delightful to see and good to eat,
with the tree of life and the tree that yields knowledge of good and evil in the centre of the park.
From Eden a river flowed to water the park,
which on leaving the park,
branched into four streams…
verse15:
God the Eternal took man and put him in the park of Eden,
to till it and to guard it.
Genesis 3: 8,9. ( Moffatt)
In the cool of the day,
when they heard the sound of God the Eternal walking in the park,
the man and his wife hid from the presence of God the Eternal among the trees of the park;
but God the Eternal called to the man and asked him,
“Where are you?”
The King is still calling…
“Where are you?”
He longs to have fellowship with you!
See how He formed the park for you, see how he provided for you!
This was always his intention,
to have you by His side.
So much so that He sent Jesus to die for you,
to make a way open for you to come to Him!
Come away with Him this day!
“Oyez!” “Oyez!’
