A walk with God

A walk with God

Genesis 5:21-24 📖 Enoch had such a close walk with the Lord that Scripture says, 'and he was not, for God took him' (Gen. 5:24). 

This means that Enoch did not die, but was taken directly into the presence of the Lord. What a wonderful testimony!As we seek to follow God with passion like Enoch's, let's learn some specific steps that will help us grow in our walk with the Lord.

 Reconciliation. This term essentially means 'God moving toward us.' The joy of this step is that we bear no responsibility; it's all up to Him. Through the cross of Jesus Christ, God has already made His move in our direction. (See 2 Cor. 5:18.) When we place faith in the Savior, we immediately take part in that reconciliation. 

Trusting God. Our heavenly Father wants us to know He is concerned with our spiritual growth. He also wants us to trust that He has, through Christ, provided the means by which we can walk intimately with Him.

 Agreement. To appreciate the closeness God wants to have with us, we must agree with what His Word teaches about His Son, the church, and our problem with sin.

Fellowship. Just as our human relationships fall apart without regular contact, our intimacy with the Father weakens when we do not spend time with Him. Walking with God is not an impossible mission, but it does require careful attention to the details of our Christian life. When we set our course for God, He will always be there to direct our path (Prov. 16:9).
