“What does the Lord require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.” (Micah 6: 
Are you walking with God? Walking humbly with him? The imagery of walking with God pictures personal relationship. But what are the essential requirements for walking with God? What are the key components for maintaining a thriving relationship with God? What does life with God look like?
Proverbs 3:5-12 answers these questions. Although not an exhaustive list, it covers the non-negotiable basics for all who desire to walk with God.
As you consider the five non-negotiable commitments for walking with God in these verses, notice that each one defines a way of relating to God based on an active response to Him. This does not describe life in a monastery or a Church building. This is daily life on the street—-real life with all its opportunities, challenges and trials.
Five main themes for life with God are presented in Proverbs 3: Trust in the Lord (v.5); acknowledge Him (v.6); fear the Lord (v.7); honor the Lord (v.9); do not despise the Lord’s discipline and do not resent his rebuke (v.11).

A compelling example of the way the bible connects with the human story is found in the consequences to human rebellion against the Creator. Recorded in the third chapter of Genesis, seven consequences emerge. Interestingly, each one affects a major area of human existence. Each one also provides a background to the primary occupational courses we choose today. They included the following:
1. Physiological: death, decay, sickness and suffering
2. Psychological: shame, guilt, fear
3. Sociological: blame shifting, alienation
4. Ecological: ground is cursed, thorns and thistles
5. Spiritual: hiding from God, enmity: seed of woman & seed of Serpent
6. Epistemological: distorted thinking, spiritual blindness (II Cor. 4:3-4)
7. Criminal: Genesis 4—Murder!
Colleges continue to offer majors related to one of the seven categories above (e.g. doctors, psychologists, sociologists, environmentalists, ministers, philosophers, law enforcement). Our problems trace back to the biblical narrative of the first act of human rebellion against the Creator. This is not a time for us to de-emphasize the sweeping claims of the Bible. The message of the Bible is what is needed most among those who are lost in a postmodern world.
