Friendship with the Lord is reserved for those who fear him. With them he shares the secrets of his covenant.
Adam had the great privilege of being able to talk, walk and befriend God while in the Garden of Eden. Their relationship, however, was cut off and strained because of the original sin. Being that God is holy, He very plainly could not have fellowship with sin. In God's perfect desire to restore His fellowship with man, He sent His only Son, Jesus Christ, to be the perfect sacrificial lamb whose blood would wash away our sin. Romans 5:10 teaches us that upon Christ's crucifixion, “We were restored to friendship with God by the death of his Son.” Come to the Lord with a humble heart, recognizing all your sinful mistakes and ask Him for forgiveness so that you experience God's friendship in your life. Just imagine yourself like Adam, freely talking, walking and enjoying a wonderful fellowship with God.
