The Wake-up Herald

And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light. Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying. But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfill the lusts thereof. Romans 13:11-14

by Thomas A. Dooley

Oh the peace that I feel from His presence so real 
See the joy just appear, as His spirit draws near
There's a life-change in me, if you'll look close you'll see 
When we gather in His name, He's here.

In the flowing of tears, all His glory appears  
There's no need for a search, you will find Him in church.
Our eternal outlook, is described in The Book
When we gather in His name, He's here.

by Thomas A. Dooley

Lord we ask of Thee 
oh hear our prayer so we,
Might praise and witness to, 
all those in need of You.

We praise You for Your love 
all blessings from above
Now keep us from despair
as we now come in prayer. 
 

by Thomas A. Dooley

Stay by my side, Lord. 
Stay by my side.
Stay but a while, Lord, 
Let me confide.

Pray for Thy grace, Lord.  
Pray for Thy grace.
Stand in this place, Lord,
In need of grace.

Scripture Reading: Genesis 4:8-12

Cain was the first person born of Eve and the Bible says that he was cursed of GOD.  Eve, at first, had twin boys, Cain and Abel; two sons but each had different fathers. 

We just read of God’s punishment to Cain of his murder of his brother.  He was cursed; can’t farm so he has to be a fugitive and a vagabond.  So, the first two children born to Eve—one was cursed and the other was dead.  It wasn’t a very good start.

The Bible gives the partial genealogy of Cain in chapter 4:17-24 of the book of Genesis.  The son of Cain was Enoch; Enoch’s son was Irad; Irad’s son was Mehujael; Mehujael’s son was Methusael; and Methusael’s son was Lamech.  Lamech had two wives.  With his wife Adah his sons were Jabal and Jubal; with his other wife Zullah his son was Tubal-cain and his sister was Naamah.  Jabal lived in tents and had cattle.  Jubal was a musician:  a player of the harp and organ.  Tubal-cain was an instructor of every artificer in brass and iron; a metal smith.

None of Cain’s children were farmers; they had to invent other jobs for themselves.  They were dependent on others for their food.
