The Christian Walk, 36

 

~ Walk In Fellowship ~

 

Series Introduction ~ The New Testament has much to say about how a believer should live their life. Christians should never have to guess about the life that pleases God.  In this series we look at a variety of passages that speak about the Christian walk on earth. 

 

Scripture ~ “Can two walk together, unless they are agreed?” (Amos 3:3).

 

“Let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching” (Hebrews 10:24-25)

 

“On the first day of the week let each one of you lay something aside, storing up as he may prosper” (1 Corinthians 16:2a).

 

Jesus said, “Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble” (Matthew 6:33-34).

 

Comments ~ The old tongue-in-cheek saying is that fellow-ship is a few guys in a ship! There are at least two root concepts in the concept of fellowship. First, there exists a positive relationship and second there is a commonality such as a shared interest or common goal.

 

As Christians we not only walk in fellowship with our fellow believers but also with each member of the Trinity. Our fellowship is with God the Father (1 John 1:3). Our fellowship is with Jesus Christ (1 John 1:3; Philippians 3:10). Our fellowship is with the Holy Spirit (Philippians 2:1; 2 Corinthians 13:14).

 

To be in fellowship is to be in harmony. Are you living in harmony with all three members of the Trinity and with your fellow believers?

 

Quote ~ “To walk with someone means you are aware of their presence. And this is true with God. If you’re to walk with Him, you must be continually aware of His presence.” —Kay Smith (Pleasing God)
