Keep Walking!


Those who wait on the Lord.....shall walk and not faint (Isaiah 40:31)

  • There is no thrill for us in walking, yet it is the test for all of our steady and enduring qualities and reveals our character
  • Having the reality of God's presence is not dependent on our being in a particular circumstance or place, but is only dependent on our determination to keep the Lord before us continually.
  • Our problems arise when we refuse to place our trust in the reality of His presence!
  • We will not fear even though.....(Psalm 46:2) - This experience will be ours once we are grounded on the truth of the reality of God's presence, not just a simple awareness of it, but an understanding of the reality of it
  • At critical moments in our lives it is necessary to ask God for guidance, but it should be unnecessary to be constantly saying, "Oh Lord, direct me in this and that" - in fact He is doing it already!
  • If our everyday decisions are not according to His will, He will press through them, bringing restraint to our spirit. Then we must be quiet and wait for the direction of His presence
  • Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without waivering, for He who promised is faithful (Hebrews 10:23)
  • Do not walk by sight but by faith! (2 Corinthians 5:7)
  • Cheerfully pleasing God is the main thing, and that's what we aim to do, regardless of our conditions.....It's what we trust in but don't yet see that keeps us going
