“Enoch walked with God, and he was not, for God took him.” – Genesis 5:24
What was quite rare in ancient times is widely available to every blood-bought believer in Jesus Christ… YOU can walk with God habitually. Enoch was unique because of the depth of his relationship with God at a time of widespread ungodliness. However, if Jesus is your Lord, then the Spirit of God lives in you and you’re invited to walk in step with Him (Galatians 5). Are you?
Is your walk with the Lord your top priority? Do you intentionally stop what you’re doing at times to pray and talk to God? Do you soak in His Word, reading, studying, and meditating on Scripture? Do you work hard to imitate Jesus, thinking like Him, speaking like Him, and acting like Him? Do you battle the temptations of your flesh that draw you away from God? Do you seek to put those temptations to death, fleeing from those which are too strong for you in the moment?
If so, then you’re truly walking with God. While you probably won’t be directly taken up to heaven like Enoch, you can certainly enjoy that same sweet fellowship with the Lord every day of your life. #FollowJesus
