April 25, 2026 - Equipped 2026 - Day 3 - 7:00PM Session Walking with God - Justin Rogers This lecture examines the biblical idea of “walking with God,” centering on Enoch in Genesis 5. It highlights unique features of Enoch's story—the timing of his walk with God and his sudden disappearance—to clarify what a God-directed life looks like. The talk contrasts this walk with worldly mindsets, including practical atheism and self-deifying notions that “God is within me.” It also warns against the prideful belief that “God needs me,” using Peter's missteps as cautionary examples. The central message is that genuine walking with God rests on the confession, “I need God.” The speaker closes with three practical principles: shorten your steps (keep faith simple and live in community), humble your heart (reject self-reliance and control), and follow wherever God leads (trust Him fully without conditions and put nothing before Him).
