My Dearly beloved in Christ, I greet and bless you all in the name of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. The psalmist says in Psalm 139:24, “See if there is any offensive way in me and lead me in the way everlasting”.
Dear children of God, it is very important to walk with God in every situation of our life. Do you go to Him only with your struggles and agony or can you boldly declare that you live in Christ? The Bible says, “To this, you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps.” (1 Peter 2:21).
Here as Apostle Paul states, the experience of walking with Jesus is keeping Him as our example, following His footsteps and living with an attitude of gratitude no matter what we face. The first step we must take to walk with Jesus is to accept Him as our personal saviour. You should become deeply rooted in Him and be built in Him. “As you, therefore, have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving.” (Colossians 2:6,7). According to this verse when we walk with Jesus, we will be established in our faith and flourish! Do not be worried!
Secondly, to walk with Jesus we must not only daily read His word but also meditate, obey, and apply it in our lives. Jesus says “If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and make Our home with him.” (John 14:23).
Yes, when we keep God’s word, our heavenly Father will always be pleased with us. He will come and dwell amongst us and lead us in our spiritual path. Be strong!
Dear children of God. instead of idolizing and imitating man, let us submit to follow the footsteps of Jesus all our lives. Only then will you be able to lead a victorious Christian life and walk with Jesus. Will you surrender your lives starting this November month to walk with Jesus? Let us pray.
Prayer: Our loving heavenly Father, we thank You for this blessed day. Father, we want to live a life pleasing in Your sight, so we submit ourselves into Your hands. Accept us Lord and guide us in Your path. Lord, we accept You as our personal saviour. We yield ourselves completely to the plans that you have for our lives. Thank You, Lord, for going before us in and making every crooked path straight. Help us be rooted in You so that Your presence that was with Enoch, Moses, and Joseph will always be with us. We commit ourselves into Your loving hands.
In Jesus name.
Amen.
