DAY # 1: ESTABLISHING A DEVOTIONAL LIFE
MEMORY VERSE: “As you have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him.” Colossians 2:6
We begin today with a brief conversation about the importance of walking with God. “Walking” speaks of our conduct and behavior and habits and lifestyle. It is knowing God and loving God and serving God! If you and I went on a long walk together we would probably return knowing each other a little more.
In the Old Testament there are several references to great men who “walked with God.” In Genesis 5:24, it states that “Enoch walked with God.” He lived daily for God. He talked daily with God. He listened to God daily. In Genesis 6:9 we find that the great Ark Builder, Noah “walked with God” as well.
Paul used the word “walk” in Colossians 2:6.
He also used it in the book of Ephesians.
Ephesians 2:10 speaks of “walking in our good works.”
Ephesians 4:1 says we are to “walk worthy of our calling.”
Ephesians 4:17 declares we are not to walk like the rest of the world.
Ephesians 5:1 is a command for us to “walk in the light.”
Ephesians 5:15 talks of a discerning, wise walk.
Daily walking with the Lord!
