Good Morning,
This writing points out the importance of being faithful to walk with the Lord in obedience and trust. It is important to overcome a laziness that causes a person to take a "vacation" of passivity that slows or even curtails our daily walk with God. Sandy wrote, "Daily I will walk with my Lord, spend time with Him and learn His ways. For I know there is no other way than God's way and being faithful onto Him. all my days!!"
In His Faithfulness,

Today's Devotional
"BE FAITHFUL IN WALKING WITH GOD"
by Sandy Billingham
There are times in my walk with God I can get somewhat complacent and passive. I don't always feel like praying to Him or studying His Word, going to church or fellowshiping with His Beloved. It could be easy for me to slip back into my old ways and do what I want to do. That is that old nature that wants to creep back in and haunt me. The good thing is... when I do start to walk in that direction I am reminded where I came from and all that God has done for me. I am reminded who I am in Him and my old ways have nothing to offer me. I am reminded of His provision and His goodness and His promises. That is when I grasp the importance of being faithful walk with Him all my days.
His Word tells us...
by walking in His ways and by fearing Him."
Deuteronomy 8:6,
The Lord specifically tells us to be obedient to His commands, and always walk in His ways and to fear His Holy name. He is our Papa God and He has created us and designed us to walk daily with Him for He knows that is the excellent way for us to walk out our life.
When the old ways start to knock at my heart's door, I am reminded of His Word in Deuteronomy 8:6 and I will choose to surrender to Him. I will press forward to be faithful to what He has shown me. I will put one foot in front of the other and do those things that will strengthen my spiritual muscles so I can be used for His Kingdom ways. Even those days I do not feel like it, I will be faithful!
Yes! Daily I will walk with my Lord, spend time with Him and learn His ways. For I know there is no other way than God's way and being faithful onto Him. all my days!!
