What does a walk with God actually mean? How does God want us to live? Here are some scriptures I've copied from the devotional book: Footprints: Scripture with Reflections Inspired by the Best-Loved Poem by Margaret Fishback Powers.
Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. These commandments that I [the Lord God] give you today are to be upon your hearts. Impress them on your children. Talk about them when you sit at home and when you walk along the road. When you lie down and when you get up.
Deuteronomy 6:5-7
He whose walk is blameless and who does what is righteous, who speaks the truth from his heart and has no slander on his tongue, who does his neighbor no wrong and casts no slur on his fellow man, who despises a vile man but honors those who fear the Lord, who keeps his oath even when it hurts, who lends his money without usury and does not accept a bribe against the innocent. He who does these things will never be shaken.
Psalm 15:2-5
We are the temple of the living God. As God has said, "I will live with them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be my people."
2 Corinthians 6:16
This is what the Lord says, "Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls."
Jeremiah 6:16
Live a life worthy of the Lord...please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God.
Colossians 1:10
If we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.
1 John 1:7
I will walk among you and be your God, and you will be my people.
Leviticus 26:12
When I find myself overwhelmed with the concerns of this world, sometimes it is just good to be reminded of scriptural truths. The Bible is a comfort to a weary soul. It just takes some time to understand.
