Walking with God

Audio Version

Gen 5:24

Enoch walked with God; then he was no more, because God took him away.

NIV

Further Study: John 4:23-24, Gen 6:9-10

Walking with God also means having a close relationship with God.

The three first people recorded in the bible to have walked with God were Enoch, Noah and Abraham.

Not much detail was reported about Enoch’s life but one very clear thing about Enoch was that he was not an ordinary man; in fact he did not die ordinarily but was taken because of his close walk with God. You cannot walk with God and be ordinary. When you walk with God you will see His power and glory in your life, things that people fear will not come near you because you are now God’s direct responsibility.

One hallmark about Noah and Abraham who also walked with God was that they trusted God and so they obeyed him even in very unfavorable circumstances. One important thing you need to hold today about the process of working with God is that it requires complete and total trust in God. You need to allow the kingdom/government of God to reign in your life in order to walk with God. When you do this, you will see the power and glory of the lord in your life just like the patriarchs mentioned.

Prayer: Heavenly father, I thank you for this day. I ask for the grace and power to walk accurately with you in Jesus name, Amen
