#1,064: Learning to Walk with God

The 5 Minute Discipleship Podcast

Often in Scripture, our relationship with God is described as a walk. Sometimes we’ll use the phrase “we are on a journey.” This idea goes back to the relationship Adam and Eve had with God in the Garden of Eden. Genesis 3:8 - “God as he was walking in the garden in the cool of the day.”

Main Points:

1. When I preach funerals, I’ll often say, “The best gift you can give your family and friends is the assurance that you are in Heaven. Let your legacy be that you loved and served Jesus faithfully. Leave behind the powerful memory that you were someone who walked with God.
2. The Bible teaches us as believers to walk in love, walk in the light, walk in wisdom, and walk in the Spirit. These instructions remind us the Christian life is not static. It’s not stationary. There is no place to stop. There is no plateau of spiritual growth. There is no place of arrival, where we can stop growing in our relationship with God. We must keep walking.
3. So, today, let’s get out our walking shoes. Let’s spend time with Jesus. Let’s journey with Him. Let’s grow in our relationship with God. Today is a good day to grow spiritually.

Today’s Scripture Verses:

Micah 6:8 - “walk humbly with your God.”
2 Corinthians 6:16 - “As God has said: “I will live with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be my people.”
Genesis 5:24 - “Enoch walked faithfully with God; then he was no more, because God took him away.”

Hebrews 11:5 - “By faith Enoch was taken from this life, so that he did not experience death: “He could not be found, because God had taken him away.”For before he was taken, he was commended as one who pleased God.”
