Walking With God

“Noah walked with God.” [1]

There is fullness of joy in the Lord’s presence. To walk with Him is to have one’s mind stay on Him. Listening to Him! Speaking to Him! Allowing Him to direct one’s path and speech.

“There are many who say, ‘Who will show us any good?’ Lord, lift up the light of Your countenance upon us. You have put gladness in my heart, more than in the season that their grain and wine increased.” [2]

Yes, the Lord fills the heart of one who receives Him with a gladness that exceeds the gladness of consuming earthly food and drink.

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and depart from evil. It will be health to your flesh, and strength to your bones. Honor the Lord with your possessions, and with the first fruits of all your increase; so your barns will be filled with plenty, and your vats will overflow with new wine.” [3]

The goal is not the things. It is the Lord, but He created and sustains all things, and He blesses those who serve Him with grace that is sufficient to meet our needs and to meet the needs of our ministry unto Him. Praise the Lord!
