Aspire to walk with God Reference Page

Make, walking with God, the highest aspiration of your life.
Reference: 2 Chronicles 6:16 16"Now therefore, O LORD, the God of Israel, keep with Your servant David, my father, that which You have promised him, saying, 'You shall not lack a man to sit on the throne of Israel, if only your sons take heed to their way, to walk in My law as you have walked before Me.'

Aspire to walk with God more than seeking fame or fortune.
Reference: Habakkuk 3:19 19The Lord GOD is my strength, And He has made my feet like hinds' feet, And makes me walk on my high places. For the choir director, on my stringed instruments.

Aspire to walk with God more than seeking personal happiness.
Reference: Psalm 119:1 Meditations and Prayers Relating to the Law of God. Aleph. 1How blessed are those whose way is [a]blameless, Who walk in the law of the LORD.

Walking with God is not the same as occasionally going on a walk with God.
Reference: Isaiah 40:31 31Yet those who wait for the LORD Will gain new strength; They will mount up with wings like eagles, They will run and not get tired, They will walk and not become weary.

That would be courting God.
Reference: Proverbs 3:5 5Trust in the LORD with all your heart And do not lean on your own understanding.

When a man and a woman court, they live separate lives and only walk together on occasion.
Reference: Matthew 19:6 6"So they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate."

But when they are married, their whole lives are joined.
Reference: Matthew 19:6 6"So they are no longer two, but one flesh. What therefore God has joined together, let no man separate."

Even so, walk with God.
Reference: Micah 4:2 2Many nations will come and say, "Come and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD And to the house of the God of Jacob, That He may teach us about His ways And that we may walk in His paths." For from Zion will go forth the law, Even the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
