| With God — Part 1 |
“Enoch walked with God” (Genesis 5:24).
“Noah walked with God” (Genesis 6:9). |
| These two men had the testimony of walking with God. To walk with someone means that you do not run ahead, nor do you lag behind. In my own case, I have to admit that I sometimes do one or the other. I either get ahead of the Lord and His timing, or I drag my feet — instead of taking the steps of faith when I should, I am like Peter, of whom we read, “and Peter followed afar off” (Luke 22:54). |
| The inspired writer, Asaph, said, “Nevertheless I am continually with Thee: Thou hast holden me by my right hand” (Psalm 73:23). To hold someone’s hand and to walk by their side means that you neither hurry nor dawdle. You keep up! |
| How much is this true in our lives? Do we get up each morning and pray for a sense of the Lord’s presence with us for the day? And do we pray for grace and spiritual energy to walk with God? Wouldn’t it be great if, at the end of each day, we had this testimony written after our name in God’s record … “(your name), walked with God”? |
