Learning the success of walking with God!

27. May 2009 by Pastor P.

Most will never understand what it means, to truly,  walk with God! Certainly people that have committed to Christ and have relationship with him, but I’m not speaking of people’s salvation or judging their ability to hear his voice or know His ways! I’m talking about the kind of walk with Him that you get so close to Him that you lose your identity and take on His! Just as John the Baptist did when he said; ” I must decrease and he must increase!” Jesus said that in order to follow Him we must deny ourselves and pick up our cross… Walking with God successfully, is not defined by how much we have but by our surrender to Him and to His ways! David desired to build God a house but it was not what God required of Him! What God wanted and what David wanted were two very different things! The same is true for you and me. I wonder how much we’re doing now “for Him” that really, He’s never required of us. Our walk should not hinge on our “success.” Jesus said;”Many in that day will say Lord, Lord did we not do many things in your name…” These that did much were not rewarded on their successes but rather on their walk(s) with God! Another true mark of someone who really walks with God is persecution! It’s impossible to be close with the Father and not come under intense surveillance from those around you! Jesus said, that if we are persecuted great is our reward in heaven! Again our successes were not rewarded, but our walk with God…
