Come Walk With Me - Mama's Pearl Part 1




Part 1
(November 2002)

“Come Walk With Me”

Luke 5:32. I come not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

Come-Is an action word
Verb-Action
Noun-A person place or thing 

When my husband (Hoyt) was seriously ill, while in the Veterans hospital, he had just been told he would have to go on kidney dialysis. He had, had, a stroke and heart attack.

I was about to cry, I wanted to heal him, but I felt so helpless.

A nurse came in and said, “Come walk with me. I need to find a wheel chair.” We had to go to the sixth floor. While walking with her, I bumped into another person, ran into a man in a wheel chair…and saw a dead person. There was only one elevator working at that time. It was not an easy walk.

The nurse began to tell me her story. Her father was a Pentecostal preacher. She at one time preached the gospel, but felt she was called to minister to the sick. Church people told her she shouldn’t preach! Her husband had left her. Then she began to say God can work miracles but he works with doctors too, because He is the Great Physician.

She didn’t know I was a minister but she knew I was a Christian, because she saw me pray for my husband.

“Walk with me sayeth the Lord! Come close to me! I desire your fellowship.”

The Walk of Believers

1. New Life

Romans 6:4. Therefore we are buried with Him by baptism into death, that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

Romans 8:1. There is therefore NOW no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

 2. Faith

2 Corinthians 5:7. For we walk by faith, not by sight.

 3. Walk Spiritually

 Galatians 5:16. This I say then, walk in the Spirit, and you shall not fulfil the lust the of flesh.

 4. Consistency

5. Walk in Love

Ephesians 5:2. And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savor.

6. Walk in Caution
Ephesians 5:15. See then that you walk circumspectly (meaning: Careful to consider all circumstances and possible consequences. Prudent. Caution.) See then that you walk not as fools, but as wise.

7. Walk in Illumination – Light
I John 1:7. But if we walk in the light, as He (Jesus) is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his son cleanseth us from all sin.

8. Walk in Christlikeness

 I John 2:6. He that saith he abideth in Him ought Himself also, so to walk, even as He walked.

When Abram was ninety nine years old, the Lord appeared to Abram and said unto him, 
 
I AM THE ALMIGHTY GOD…WALK BEFORE ME AND BE THOU PERFECT!
