Walk and Please God

1 Thessalonians 4:1-2 KJV

1 Furthermore then we beseech you, brethren, and exhort you by the Lord Jesus, that as ye have received of us how ye ought to walk and to please God, so ye would abound more and more. 2 For ye know what commandments we gave you by the Lord Jesus.

walk = peripotaeo - to make one's way, to live, to regulate one's life, to conduct one's self

Here we are encouraged to live our lives in a way that is pleasing to God. We know His commands and need to live by them. When we do so, we will abound (have abundance).

We do not need to wonder how to have a better life; we just need to follow God's commands. Wehne we do, we will learn that those commands are there for our good and not to be mean.
