23 Have you been walking with God today?
"Noah walked with God!"Genesis 6:9
Noah was reconciled to God.
He was intimate with God.
He listened to the voice of God.
He chose the way of God.
He approved of the designs of God.
Noah’s God—was his Friend:
with Him, he could converse,
to Him, he could look for counsel,
from Him, he often received favors.
Noah’s God—was his Companion: he walked with Him, realizing that He was near, loving His presence, and improving by His society.
He did not sit with the Lord on His throne,
nor stand with Him in His sanctuary—but
he WALKED with Him in His way.
He made progress. He was diligent—as well as devout.
The presence of God was . . .
his happiness,
his security, and
his honor.
This privilege may be ours. It is, if we are really believers in the Lord Jesus. Our God is with us! He is with us as . . .
our Father,
our Friend, and
our Companion.
We walk with Him.
We converse with Him.
We receive from Him.
Beloved, do you walk with God?
Have you been walking with God today?
Does the thought of God’s presence with you, give you joy? Does it soothe, and animate, and sanctify your heart?
Retire to rest rejoicing in the fact, "God is with me, as my Father and my omnipotent Friend!"
