Walking With God

Noah "walked with God."  Genesis 6:9.  Noah lived during a wicked time upon the earth.  The evil was so great that God decided that He would destroy man from off the face of the earth.  Genesis 6:6-7.  And so He did.  Noah and his family were saved by following God's instructions to build the ark.  Eight souls were spared this world wide destruction.  Noah "found grace in the eyes of the Lord" because Noah chose to walk with God.  When everyone around Noah were traveling deeper into sin, Noah chose to stand upright and perfect in the sight of God.  Society did not dictate how Noah would live, but rather, God dictated how Noah would live.  The Christians at Philippi were instructed "that ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world."  Philippians 2:15.  Without the light of the righteous, the world is totally darkness.  The majority chose not to walk with God, but rather, they chose to walk with the devil.  Regardless of how dark the world becomes and how many souls travel the path of evil, we, like Noah of old, must walk with God.  Those who walk with God will be saved while the unrighteous will be destroyed.
