Title: Walk with God

If you walk with God
Psalm 78:23-29, 51-54
Life is called confession. It means that there are many difficult and difficult things in life. The Bible also compares our lives to the journey of the people of Israel who escaped from Egypt and headed for the land of Canaan. The road that the people of Israel went to the land of Canaan was the wilderness road.
The wilderness is a place where plants do not grow and there is not enough water. It is not as easy as it sounds to walk in this wilderness, so we have to walk with God.
? What are the benefits of walking with God on the path of life like the wilderness?
■ First, if you walk with God, you will not lack anything.
The wilderness, where the Israelites lived for 40 years, was a barren land with no water and no vegetation. In such a land, it is difficult to survive even a month, let alone a year. But God brought water out of the rock so that all men and animals could drink, manna in the morning and quails in the evening, so that they could be satisfied. So Moses says in Deuteronomy 29:5, “For forty years the Lord has led you through the wilderness, and your garments have not worn out, and the sandals of your feet have not worn out.”
Ladies and gentlemen, just as God provided all the food, drink, and clothing for the Israelites when they walked in the wilderness, walking with God allows us to live a life without lack. This is because God knows all our shortcomings and supplies us with what we need. That is why David sang in Psalm 23:1, saying, “The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.”
■ Second, if you walk with God, you will go on the right path.
Water and food are important when traveling through the wilderness, but finding the right path is equally important. If you go astray in the wilderness, you will experience great disappointment and suffering.
If our life is a wilderness road, we must find the way well. Because if you find the right way, you can find rest and happiness, but if you don't, you will experience unhappiness and failure. However, our life cannot find its way well on our own. How often do we look back on the past and realize that there was nothing to be foolish and foolish about? However, the fact is that if you walk with God, you will not lose your way and go on the right path.
That's why David sings in Psalm 23:2, "God makes him lie down in green pastures, and leads him beside still waters." Also, is God ?Isaiah? Through the prophet Isaiah 30:21, “whether you turn to the right or to the left, you will hear a voice behind you, saying, ‘This is the way; walk in it.” God is the one who leads us to good places and leads us on the right path. Therefore, if you walk with God, you will surely go on the right path.
Ladies and gentlemen, there is nothing more reassuring than walking with God when we go along the path of life such as confession. Because God fills all our shortcomings and leads us to the right path, a life that walks with God can lead to a happy and successful life. Therefore, we do not know how great a blessing it is to walk with God. A life that walks with God is the secret to leading our lives to happiness, peace, and success. Knowing this fact, I pray in the name of the Lord that the saints will walk with God and live victoriously on the path of life like the wilderness. - Amen -
