What exactly does walking with & towards The Almighty means?
Walking with God is the best walk anyone could ask for. It is the best experience any human being can have. It is the walk of true life. But what exactly does walking with God mean. Depending on who you ask, you may get a different answer. In my version, walking with God means living your life according to His will, by His guidance, for His glory, and being God-conscious in all that you do. It means to listen to your inner calling and embrace the God given purpose that is in you.
Walking with God is the walk of true life where we get to know our creator and ourselves. It is very beneficial for our growth as human beings. It can be very rewarding and transformational at times, as well as difficult. We will be presented with great opportunities that will make us shine in the eyes of others, and difficulties that will makes us want to hide from the rest of the world. But it is all worth it, because the God whom we walk with is the God who walks for us when we need it the most.
Walking with God does not assure us that we will avoid life's major problems. No! There is no exception to the rule. All creation has been created for a purpose and each must traverse their own path to discover themselves. Walking with God is necessary to find fulfillment and purpose in all that we do. The walk determines where we will go and who we will become because it is the only walk that makes complete transformation in us.
We all have a purpose that we must strive to find. We all exist to be tried and tested and to understand the attributes of God by the testing that happens to us. When we walk with God, we position ourselves to find the inner purpose in us. We align our passion with our purpose and will achieve fulfillment and satisfaction with our lives. That is what God wants for all His creation, fulfillment and satisfaction. He created us and He knows whats best for us.
The walk with God is our purification and refining process. We will be tested and tried until we are made the beings God wants us to be. We will be subjected to many situations that will force us to move from our comfort level and step up to the next uncertain level. The testing is our opportunity to improve ourselves.
While walking with God, we will be faced with situations that will test our faith, our patience, our thankfulness, our appreciation, our fear of God, our trust in Him, our purpose and question ourselves. We will face situations that will make us angry at God. We will be confused as to why He isn't helping us when we chose to obey Him. We will be frustrated with confusion and lack of action on Gods part, which will make us question our own faith. We will eventually realize our own limitations and accept our human nature. We will understand that our limited knowledge will only allow us to grasp what God has made visible for us. The invisible comes through life's experiences as we grow and mature into beings that God wants us to be.
Never doubt Gods ways. Just because you don't see the full picture don't negate His ways. He can surprise us in ways that will seem unreal. When the timing is right, all events will be aligned perfectly to create a free flowing path for the plan of God to come to life. I remember when I was trying to get a better job, I kept being rejected and frustrated but I never gave up. Throughout the process of walking with God, I learned about my abilities. I was rejected to only receive the job that I love today. The job that I have today forces me to step up to the next level. The job that God destined for me caused a chain of events that allowed me to meet the right people. It was almost like a drawing force. I can best describe it like fate. Things just work in your favor no matter how difficult and improbable they seem. So don't judge the only real Judge because the most difficult path is your greatest journey that will yield the greatest fruit.
External forces will be against you trying to stop you from achieving your destiny. No matter the obstacles, they will not stop you from going where you are meant to be. What God wills will come to pass. He will use the opposition to shape you and keep you on the right path until you meet the path of your destiny. Through failure in your part and inability to succeed on your own, you will come to the realization that everything that is going to happen has been decreed by God. Your share has been precisely planned. Nobody can take the share of someone else. Everyones share is measured precisely.
One of the most confusing parts when walking with God is understanding Him. Communication is key. You may think that God wants you to do something when in fact it is your wishful thinking. You may take your desires as a promise from God to engage in an event and expect a promised outcome. But remember, God speaks through actions. If it comes to pass, God destined it, otherwise, it never was in His will, for whatever God wills, it shall come to pass.
The walk with God is the best walk of life. It is the walk that will transform you into a complete being. It will cause you to grow and develop into a better you. The walk will shape your future. It will shape your morals. You will become more in tune with Gods plan for your life. You will understand Gods love and greatness while you struggle with the walk. No matter how difficult it is, the walk will become your destiny, because anybody who walks with God will never be the same.
If you learned anything after reading this, then share it with others for His sake, so they also may benefit from it like you.
