WALKING
What does it mean? To tread about.
Many references appear in the New Testament giving emphasis to its meaning. Some are for warning, others to guide us, etc.
Why "WALK"? Our feet take us to places, help us to stand upright, position us, give us strength, help us to flee away....
Some meanings of WALK in the Scriptures:
1. 1 John 1:7. 'Walk in the Light'. Stay on the path of Light so that we can enjoy Fellowship one with another and with the Lord. Thus, we can be cleansed from wrong and sin.
2. 2 Corinthians 5:7. 'Walk by Faith'. The Christian life can only be lived by Faith. We do not always know what direction to follow but Faith keeps us on the right path.
3. Ephesians 5:2. 'Walk in Love'. To live the Christian life in love, God's Love. No other way, but God's way.
4. Colossians 4:6. 'Walk in Him'. To be in Him. Since His coming into our lives we should live the life that He lived. A new life.
5. Galatians 5:16. 'Walk in the Spirit'. In this way we Fellowship with the Holy Spirit, we commune with Him. He protects us and guides us so that we are protected from the temptations of the flesh and the pull of the world on our lives. We need to have a close walk together with the Holy Spirit to keep us from all evil.
6. Ephesian 4:1. 'Walk worthy of Him' . Do not bring shame on your life with God by the way you live and behave. Live as an example of Christian life in a dark world.
