Key 6 - Walking In A Worthy Manner.

If you’re a backpacker who wants to take a journey of any length, you have to prepare for it. You’d have to make sure you’re in adequate physical shape and you’d need to pack your backpack with the right amount of food, clothing, and shelter for the trip. The journey to a given destination is yours and no one else can walk it for you so you’d need to be prepared.

The same is true of your walk-in Christ. You have to own your walk and this includes being prepared for it day-by-day. As you daily prepare to walk, you need to know and utilize the contents of your “backpack” which are the tools God has given you such as His Word and prayer. As you study the pages of scripture, God defines what a worthy walk is. His definition includes many things such as how you’re responsible for your conduct, how you should walk in humility, integrity, and obedience to His instructions and standards.

As you strive to walk in a worthy manner, you also need to be careful regarding who you choose to seek counsel from, those you surround yourself with, and those you seek to be like. This doesn't mean you need to isolate yourself. However, the input and influence others have can help or hinder your walk, so you need to be careful. You cannot allow the influences of this world, including people, to help you veer off the path God wants you on. Instead, you have to decide each day to walk according to God’s standards and no one else’s. Always remember that the world walks a different path than you do and you need to surround yourself with those who build you up and do not tear you down. You need people in your life to help you successfully walk in a worthy manner.

In everything you do, do it all for Him so that you may bring honor to and represent Him well in all things. May you seek to walk a worthy walk.  As you seek to follow His principles, will, and instruction, you will live out and experience the benefits of another vital key to walking in Christ.
