Walking with God!

Genesis 5:24 And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him.

We often don't see ourselves in the same light as the Old or New Testament saints because we just don't seem to measure up. But the truth of the matter is, we have been clothed with righteousness through faith in Jesus Christ. We, wou are in Christ Jesus, have as much potential to walk with God as Enoch did.

In the morning my wife and I go prayer walking. Three things are accomplished during this time: first, we get some needed exercise, about four miles a day, secondly, we get a chance to talk with one another without any distractions, thirdly and most importantly, we invite the Lord to come and walk with us. Not only are we praying for particular people, and certain situations, but we are asking the Lord to speak to us as we walk with Him. He's the one who makes these morning walks so exciting. These walks have become the highlight of our day. We go to bed each night looking forward to our morning walk with the Lord.

God wants to walk and talk with each of us. It may be a short walk for some, or a twenty minute ride into the office. Whatever your life circumstances may be, there must be room for God on a daily basis. I'm not talking about going through religious exercises, but seizing the opportunity to spend time with the Almighty.

During these times He will affirm His love for you, bring specific direction, offer comfort and consolation, and bring the necessary correction and admonition to our lives. He really knows how to keep things in balance.

Walking with God is not for a select few, He is no respector of persons. He's waiting to walk and talk with you.

 One word from His lips can bring about miraculous change!
