Topic: Walking With God [Seeds Of Destiny 19 January 2019 Devotional]
Scripture: And Enoch walked with God after He begat Methuselah, 300 years and begat sons and daughters and Enoch walked with God and he was not for God took him, he walked with God. Genesis 5:22-24.
Thought For The Day: To walk with God is to allow God’s Word order your steps in life.
It has been confirmed that dedication to God has many profits and benefits in life. One of the benefits of dedication to God is standing out from the rest of the people. You cannot give God the best and be among the rest of the people; you cannot put God first and come last in life. Therefore, it is important to look further at the subject of dedication.
Now, what is dedication to God?
From our anchor Scripture, we understand that dedication to God is synonymous with walking with God; to be dedicated to God is to walk with God (Genesis 17:1).
What then does it mean to walk with God? Walking with God means:
i. Going in the same direction with God (Luke 24:13-15)
Walking with God means going in the same direction with God. When a person is walking with God, he cannot go in a direction that is contrary to where God is. To walk with God is to travel in the same direction with God.
ii. Being in steps with God
Walking with God means being in step with God; the steps and the moves of those who walk with God are ordered by God (Prov. 37:23).
iii. Ordering one’s steps in the Word of God
Walking with God or being dedicated means ordering your steps in the Word of God (Psalms 119:133).
Beloved, you cannot claim to be walking with God when you do not go in the same direction with Him, being in step with Him or ordering your steps and moves according to His Word. My counsel is, decide to walk with God totally and completely.
Remember this: To walk with God is to allow God’s Word order your steps in life.
