When God-Pleasers Walk the Earth

Think about the different creatures that have walked planet earth – dinosaurs, Behemoth (Job 40:15-24), Leviathan (Job 41:1,31). The Bible speaks of some of these creatures. Perhaps there are sea creatures living in the great depths of the ocean that the human eye has yet to see. Think about remarkable human beings who have walked the earth. We read about when giant Nephilim lived on earth (Genesis 6:4) and men of supernatural strength like Nimrod, who was the first heroic warrior on earth—“Since he was the greatest hunter in the world, his name became proverbial (see Genesis 10:8-12). What about ordinary men, like Noah, who walked the earth? In his natural ordinary life, God asked him to build an ark, something no one had ever seen. Rain had not been seen yet. Yet, Noah was faithful and the Bible speaks of Noah favorably because he obeyed the Lord (Genesis 6:8-9). God-pleasers are all through the Scriptures.
