Walk With Me God
A Letter to God
A true relationship with God is walking with him Daily and wanting to walk with him every moment of your life, developing that intimacy with him.
Adam – Walked with God in the Garden
Adam – Walked with God in the Garden and was fellowship to God. Genesis 3:8 tells us that they (Adam and Eve) heard the voice of the Lord God.
God created Adam for fellowship. Before sin entered the world Adam walked with God face to face, without fear, shame or separation.
The Garden was not just a place of beauty but it was a place with daily communion with God.
Adam knew – God’s voice/presence/and authority.
When the Walk Was Broken
When Adam disobeyed God the walk with God was broken – and Adam hid from God. Genesis 3:10 And he said, I heard thy voice in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked; and I hid myself.
Sin introduced caused:
Fear where there was peace
Hiding where there was fellowship
Separation where there was intimacy.
Our sin or the things that we battle with hinders our walk with God.
Our laziness to not pick up the Word of God hinders our walk with God.
Genesis 3:9 And the Lord God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou?
God knows all and where we are at all times. So God asking where art thou was not a question of location but a question of relationship.
Where are you church
Where are you child of God
I ask you today how is your relationship with God. How is your walk and communion with God. Remember sin disrupts fellowship with God.
Enoch – Walked with God and pleased God
Genesis 5:24 Amplified Bible
And [in reverent fear and obedience] Enoch walked with God; and he was not [found among men], because God took him [away to be home with Him].
Enoch lived in a corrupt generation, yet he maintained a close walk with God.
We don’t have to be part of the corrupt world.
Enoch did not die but instead was taken up by God – all because Enoch pleased God.
There was no coffin for him
No grave
No obituary
Walking with God pleases him.
Intimacy with God brings supernatural outcomes.
It Brings healing
It Brings Deliverance
It brings Miracles
Who needs a miracle in this house today.
Also know you can walk with God even in the evil times.
You can be that witness and you can please God.
Noah – Walked with God and Obeyed God
Genesis 6:9 King James Version
These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.
Noah obeyed God for over 100 years building the ark.
He walked with God although he received no applause.
Church keep walking with God and he will give you the end reward.
His faith looked foolish to the World.
Although people mocked him Noah kept obeying God while people laughed.
Noah’s walk with God saved many generations to come.
You can do the same and WIN many generations to come to God by teaching your kids and grandkids.
Witnessing to your friends
Obeying God
Living for him
Walk with HIM.

Moses – Walked and Talked with God through leadership, wilderness, trials, and intercession for Israel.

That would be a close walk with God.
As a man speaks to his friend
Face to Face
God reveals things to the ones that walk close to him.

Leaders must walk with God before leading people.

David was after God’s own heart.
Psalm 51:11 King James Version
Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me
David knew the feeling of the walk with God and didn’t ever want to lose it.
When the presence of God is not with us we are missing something and have nothing.
But when the presence of God is with us we have everything.
Nothing is impossible with him.
In his presence Miracles are produced.
If we ever get a true taste of God we will not want to live without him.

Final Call
Church I challenge you to get back to your walk with God.
Back to his presence.

For the ones that need a walk established come.

The fall of man brought forth thorns and thistles in Genesis.
The thorns and thistles were placed on Jesus as the Crown of Thorns.

Jesus bowed his head in victory.
And through Christ we have victory.
