THE divine record is that “Enoch walked with God.” This brings to view a close and blessed companionship. Enoch had come to see the worthlessness of all things earthly. Heaven was his goal. In preparing for that blessed place he sought to cultivate the companionship of those with whom he would there be associated. The conclusion of his earthly experience is recorded in the words, “And he was not; for God took him.”
IT is our privilege to walk with God as did Enoch of old. We may place our hands in his, give to him our confidence, and enjoy his companionship in all life's experience. He will choose for us the path wherein we should walk; he will be our guide the whole journey through. We may safely follow his leadership and walk in his footsteps. Walking with God means an abiding daily communion with him, a constant drinking in of his Spirit, a reaching out to him every moment for divine guidance, humble submission to his will, and faithful obedience to all his requirements. As with Enoch, the result of this communion and the end of our journey will be the heavenly Canaan. There we shall literally look upon his lovely face, bask in the sunshine of his love, and find at his right hand, pleasures forevermore. Let us walk with God here, that we may live with him throughout eternity.
