A Holy Walk

Enoch walked with God, and he was not, for God took him. Genesis 5:24
By faith Enoch was taken up so that he should not see death, and he was not found, because God had taken him. Now before he was taken he was commended as having pleased God. Hebrews 11:5

D.L. MOODY
A great deal is being said about holiness. Every true child of God desires to be holy as His Father in heaven is holy. And holiness is walking with God. Enoch had only one object. How simple life becomes when we have only one object to seek, one purpose to fulfill—to walk with God, to please God! It has been said that the utmost many Christians get to is that they are pardoned criminals. How short they fall of the joy and blessedness of walking with God!

ERWIN LUTZER
Moody is credited with saying, “This one thing I do and not these forty things I dabble in.” Like Enoch, walking with God should be our highest priority. To walk with God requires agreement. “Do two walk together, unless they have agreed to meet?” the prophet Amos asked (Amos 3:3). Walking with someone means you have common interests and a shared destination. Walking with God also means that we “walk in the light, as he is in the light” (1 John 1:7). Every hidden sin should be confessed and forsaken; our lives must be open to His leading.
You may be thinking, “Can we really know God, so that we might ‘walk’ with Him?” The answer is yes. Through the Scriptures, we are introduced to His mercy, His salvation, and invited to walk each day in dependence and fellowship.
God has not turned His face from us; rather, His arms are outstretched toward us, inviting us to come into His presence through the blood of Christ.

PRAYER
Lord, I want know you and be holy like you.
