Genesis 6:9 (NKJV) 9 This is the genealogy of Noah. Noah was a just man, perfect in his generations. Noah walked with God.
We want to focus on the word “walked”, and what it means.
A just man, or blameless man, is someone that walks very close to God.
God teaches them to do things with integrity. He teaches them discipline. He teaches them to love unconditionally.
As we endeavor to be a just man or woman, He teaches us to stay away or back away from the things that will defile us. And the most important thing, the thing that will help us to walk with God, is that we listen and take heed when He shows us something.
Walking with God is really about staying clean in our heart, doing the right thing versus doing the wrong.
As we do this, it will help our mind to follow suit.
Our minds can get us into some trouble, as we all know. We can think of some awful things to do and say at times. We have to keep our mind still and in obedience to righteousness. Check it continually with God’s word.
In 2 Peter 2:5, Peter called Noah a preacher of righteousness. Noah’s walk and his love for God showed up through the things he did on a daily basis. He was a good man!
Let us ask God today about our walk with Him. What are people seeing when they see us? Do they see integrity? Do they see a person trying to live righteously? Do we inspire them with His love?
1 John 2:6 (NKJV) 6 He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked.
