Walking With God - Part 2

God has always wanted to be intimate with us. This truth is evident from creation when God made Adam and Eve. He had fellowship with them until sin disrupted the relationship. Even then, God made a way in Christ Jesus to reconcile us to Him. And for all who believe in Jesus, we can have fellowship with our heavenly father yet again. As we seek to go deeper in this relationship, the following principles may be helpful. Please read the first part of this title for other helpful principles.

Philippians 2:5-8: Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross
I Peter 5:6: Humble yourselves, therefore, under God's mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time.

Colossians 3:16: Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom, teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord
Psalm 119:11: Your word I have hidden in my heart that I might not sin against You.
