Genesis 5
Genesis 5:1-32:
Chapter Account:
The account of Adam’s generation. God made man in His likeness; both male and female at creation. When Adam was hundred and thirty years, he had a son Seth, exactly like him, and after eight hundred years, he had more children. He died at nine hundred and thirty years old. Seth had Enos at the age of a hundred and five years, he also he had other children after eight hundred and seven years old. He was nine hundred and twelve years when he died. Enos had Cainan when he was ninety years old, he also had more children after eight hundred and fifteen years. He died at eight hundred and five years old. Cainan gave birth to Mahalaleel when he was seventy years old, and he had more children after eight hundred and forty years old. Cainan died at nine hundred and ten years old. At sixty years, Mahalaleel had Jared, then he had more children after eight hundred and thirty years old. He died at the age of eight hundred and ninety-five years. At the age of sixty-two, Jared had Enoch and had more children after eight hundred years. He died when he was nine hundred and sixty-two years old. When Enoch was sixty-five years, he had Methuselah. And Enoch walked with God after having Methuselah three hundred years, and had more children. Enoch lived for three hundred and sixty-five years. Enoch walked devotedly with God and he was no more because God took him. Methuselah was eighty-seven years old when he had Lamech and had more children after seven hundred and eighty-two years. He died after nine hundred and sixty-nine years. Lamech was one hundred and eighty- two years, when he had Noah (a child of comfort regarding our toil since God cursed the ground. Lamech had more children after five hundred ninety and five years. He died when he was seven hundred seventy and seven years old. Noah was five hundred years old when he had Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
Prayer:
- Who am I Lord, that You love me so much, to have created me in Your image? My Father, I thank You for creating me in Your own likeness, in Jesus' name.
- Oh God, my Father, let my choices and my entire life and my family always reflect Your image, in Jesus' name.
- You created Adam in Your likeness; Adam also gave birth to Seth in his likeness. My Father, let my life, my children’s lives, and the lives of my entire generation reflect Your likeness, purpose and will forever, in Jesus' name.
- Let everyday of my life count for Your divine purpose, in Jesus' name.
- By Your grace oh Lord, I will not live a wasted life, in Jesus' name.
- Each generation from Adam was fruitful from generation to generation; they had sons and daughters. God of fruitfulness, make me fruitful from generation to generation, in Jesus' name.
- My Father, let me, my family, and my unborn generations be forever fruitful in and for Your purpose, in Jesus' name.
- Enoch lived the shortest life amongst them all, but he walked faithfully with God, and he never tasted death; God took him. By Your grace oh God, like Enoch, let my walk and works in life be so pleasing to You, to qualify me to reign with You in the end, in Jesus' name.
- Methuselah lived the longest life, yet he did not have Enoch’s kind of testimony; it is not how long but how well. My Father and my God, let me not live a worthless life; a life without a glorious testimony, let every moment of my life glorify Your name, in Jesus' name.
- Noah was born and was pronounced a son of comfort. My Father, like Noah, let my appearance/presence bring comfort and solution to difficult situations wherever I go, all the days of my life, in Jesus' name.
- Like Noah, let the presence of my children and their subsequent generations bring comfort and solution to challenging situations wherever they go, in Jesus' name.
- Thank You Lord, in Jesus' name. Amen.
