Genesis 5:24 “Enoch walked faithfully with God; then he was no more, because God took him away” (NIV).
One great privilege we have as Christians is the opportunity to have a fellowship with our maker and father. God is his great mercy and love receives us as his own beloved children.
Corinthians 6:16 reads “God has said: “I will dwell in them And walk among them. I will be their God, And they shall be My people”.Thus for us to walk with the father, it is a great door or opportunity that God has made available for us. It is not of us.Having this understanding will make you appreciate that, walking with God is something not to be taken lightly.
Walking with the Lord, involves agreeing with his word on every matter and doing his bidding. It also involves having a constant fellowship with Him in prayer and the word. Anytime you take this opportunity to walk with the father you set your mind on what God says and does.
Those who walk with God, see and talk like him. The Bible says two people can only walk together by agreement. Meaning that, to WALK with God you must accept and agree with his Word. That was the realm Enoch got to. He had a very close relationship with the Lord till he was no longer needed here.
In fact, he was more of a friend of God than a friend to any other person on earth.This is how your relationship with God must be like.
Another attribute we learn in Enoch’s walk with God was faithfulness.Enoch was firm, decisive, and loyal in the walk with God. He never gave room for turning back. His trust was unshakable.
God expects nothing different from you and I. Start to WALK with the Lord. He will indeed share his glory on your way.
Read: Colossians 2:6“Therefore, as you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in him.”
