He who says he abides in Him ought himself also to walk just as He walked - 1 John 2:6.
We abide in God only when we walk just as He walked. If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples - John 15:7,8.
Same attitude
Let our attitude be same as Christ. Imitate me, just as I also imitate Christ - 1 Corinthians 11:1.
Be perfect
Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect - Matthew 5:48.
Be Holy
But as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, because it is written, “Be holy, for I am holy” - 1 Peter 1:15,16.
Be Righteous
If you know that He is righteous, you know that everyone who practices righteousness is born of Him - 1 John 2:29.
Follow God

Abide in God & bear fruits
Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me - John 15:4.
Be compassionate
The Lord is good to all; He has compassion on all He has made - Psalm 145:9. But He, being full of compassion, forgave their iniquity, And did not destroy them - Psalm 78:38.
Slow to anger & rich in love
The Lord is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and rich in love - Psalm 145:8.
Guard the mouth
He was oppressed and He was afflicted, Yet He opened not His mouth; He was led as a lamb to the slaughter, And as a sheep before its shearers is silent, So He opened not His mouth - Isaiah 53:7.
Walk in the light
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin - 1 John 1:7.
Walk in love
And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma - Ephesians 5:2. He who does not love does not know God for God is love - 1 John 4:8.
Walk as children of light
For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light -Ephesians 5:8.
Walk in obedience
The Lord will establish you as his holy people, as he promised you on oath, if you keep the commands of the Lord your God and walk in obedience to him - Deuteronomy 28:9.
Follow His steps
For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that you should follow His steps - 1 Peter 2:21.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, Help us to walk just as You walked. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
