======================================================================== WALKING WITH GOD by Charles Stanley ======================================================================== Summary: Walking with God is a lifestyle of faithful obedience and listening to His voice, leading to serenity and safety in all circumstances. Topics: "Faith And Obedience", "Trust In God" Scripture References: Genesis 5:24, Genesis 6:9, Proverbs 3:5 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ DESCRIPTION ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Charles Stanley preaches on Noah's faithful walk with God in a corrupt world, emphasizing the importance of daily obedience and following God's direction. Noah's obedience and trust in God's instructions, even when they seemed unusual, allowed him to maintain a close relationship with the Lord. Walking with God in the ordinary days prepares us for the extraordinary challenges that may come our way, enabling us to navigate them with faith and confidence in God's plan. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ CONTENT ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Genesis 6:9; 22 Noah walked with God, even in a decadent world. How did he do it? Part of the answer is found in Genesis 5:24. Noah's great-grandfather Enoch walked with God. The faithful lifestyle of Noah's family made it possible for him to walk with the Lord even though none of his neighbors did. Noah was walking with God before he built the ark. We learn to walk with God by just following Him every day. We learn to be ready for the big issues when we walk with God on the ordinary days. Then, when a significant challenge comes along, we are already walking by faith. Noah's test of obedience came when God gave him unusual instructions--to build an ark and to bring two of every animal inside. Through all this, Noah continued his faithful and fruitful walk with the Lord. He kept his focus on the Lord's plan, the Lord's project, and the Lord's direction. When you and I walk with God, we learn to listen to Him and hear His voice. Then it doesn't matter what others say, as long as we know we've heard the Lord. Some of us have journeyed through difficult places in our lives. Yet it's not where we walk that matters, but with whom. Anywhere we walk with God--no matter how painful it feels--is a place of serenity and safety. Remember, when we walk with the Lord, we will never take a wrong step. We will never regret a day. We will always be grateful for the moment we decided to travel alongside almighty God. ======================================================================== Source: https://sermonindex.net/speakers/charles-stanley/walking-with-god/ ========================================================================
