1 Finally then, brethren, we urge and exhort in the Lord Jesus that you should abound more and more, just as you received from us how you ought to walk and to please God; (1 Thessalonians 4:1 NKJV)

2  And Enoch walked with God; and he was not, for God took him. (Genesis 5:24 NKJV)  But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD. This is the genealogy of Noah. Noah was a just man, perfect in his generations. Noah walked with God. (Genesis 6:8-9 NKJV)

3  By faith Enoch was taken away so that he did not see death, "and was not found, because God had taken him"; for before he was taken he had this testimony, that he pleased God. (Hebrews 11:5 NKJV)  By faith Noah, being divinely warned of things not yet seen, moved with godly fear, prepared an ark for the saving of his household, by which he condemned the world and became heir of the righteousness which is according to faith. (Hebrews 11:7 NKJV)

4  Can two walk together, unless they are agreed? (Amos 3:3 NKJV) While ye loved and served me, I dwelt in you and walked among you. Now ye are become alienated from me, your nature and mine are totally opposite. I am holy, ye are unholy. We are no longer agreed, and can no longer walk together. I can no longer hold communion with you. I must cast you out. (Adam Clarke Commentary) 2 Corinthians 6:4-6

5  When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to Abram and said to him, "I am Almighty God; walk before Me and be blameless. (Genesis 17:1 NKJV)  and said, "Remember now, O LORD, I pray, how I have walked before You in truth and with a loyal heart, and have done what is good in Your sight." And Hezekiah wept bitterly. (Isaiah 38:3 NKJV)

6  Men often hide from each other  Men deceive one another  Men are often slack with their promises  Sinful man bribes his fellowman  Men view their sins as not being so terrible  Men often forget about their un-forgiven sins  Men often think that God thinks like them

7  And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are naked and open to the eyes of Him to whom we must give account. (Hebrews 4:13 NKJV)  "For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways," says the LORD. "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways, And My thoughts than your thoughts. (Isaiah 55:8-9 NKJV)

8  "You shall walk after the LORD your God and fear Him, and keep His commandments and obey His voice, and you shall serve Him and hold fast to Him. (Deuteronomy 13:4 NKJV)  Walking After God Means: 2 Corinthians 5:7 1 John 5:3 Luke 1:6 Romans 6:3,4 Romans 8:1 Matthew 7:13,14
