The art of walking may parallel the art of negotiation.

Strategy for a walk in the Kingdom

 Let you feet do the talking 'How beautiful are feet of them that preach the gospel of peace.' Romans 10:15

 Watch your Step! 

When your 're in your neighbors house. Walk softly and carry a big scepter of the Lord.

 All God's chillun got shoes

 I got shoes you got shoes all of God's childrens got shoes
When I get to heaven gonna put on my shoes
I'm gonna walk all over God's heaven (heaven) heaven (heaven)
Everybody talkin' bout heaven ain't a goin' there heaven (heaven) heaven (heaven)
I'm gonna walk all over God's heaven

 click your heels together three times and command the holy shoes to carry you wherever you wish to go.

Walk lighty in your enemy’s house. The walk of the righteous are ordered by the Lord. The Devil is not omniscient. Therefore, Satan doesn’t know your walk. Walk lightly and seek to have the Holy Spirit give you prophetic eyes concerning anyone even remotely connected to your destiny. The walk of the rightous is concealed to the wicked. It is a stumblig block to those who are blind.  Feet: Walk in Spirit; ways; the way you walk, is the way you think; behavior; formal possession; offense; one's heart attitude; stubborn when still; messenger of God; humble walk; lowly stance. (Ex. 3: 5; 24: 10; Gal. 2: 14 ; Rev. 1: 15; Ps. 35: 15; 40: 2; 1 Sam. 2: 9 Eph. 6: 15 ; Rom. 10: 15 ; 16: 20 ; Heb. 12: 13 , 15; Prov. 25: 19; Acts 9: 5; 2 Chron. 16: 10 , 12; 1 Tim. 5: 10 ; Luke 7: 44 )...

Be Cunning

CUNNING

kun'-ing (chakham, chashabh): In Bible-English "cunning" means always "wise" or "skilful"; the word does not occur in the bad sense, and it is found in the Old Testament only. The chief Hebrew words are chakham, "wise," "skilful" (2 Ch 2:7 the King James Version "a man cunning to work in gold"; 2 Ch 2:13; Isa 3:3 the King James Version, etc.); chashabh, "to think," "devise," "desire" (Ex 26:1,31; 28:6,15 the King James Version, etc.). We have also da`ath, "knowledge" (1 Ki 7:14 the King James Version); bin, "to be intelligent" (1 Ch 25:7 the King James Version); machasbebheth, "thought," "device," "design" (Ex 31:4; 35:33,15 the King James Version); 'aman, "artificer" (Song 7:1 the King James Version); yadha`, "to know," once translated "cunning" (Dan 1:4 the King James Version).
For cunning the American Standard Revised Version gives "skilful" (Ex 31:4, etc.; Isa 3:3 "expert"); for "cunning work" the work of the "skilful workman" (Ex 26:1,31, etc., the English Revised Version "cunning workman"); for "curious," "skilfully woven," the English Revised Version "cunningly woven" (Ex 28:8, etc.).

 Thy word is a lamp unto my feet

And a light unto my path.

Walk in humility in your enemy’s house. The Japanese take their shoes off when entering the house to avoid getting the tatami floor dirty. Take off your shoes. This a recognition of that you are standing on holy ground. Wash your enemys’’ feet. Feet encased in footwear required to be purified and this responsibility usually fell to the lowest house servant. Baring feet signified the status of an honored guest. Washing feet put them at ease and comfort, and kept the floors, clean. Foot washing was viewed as an honor or service and became a common Jewish custom and at formal banquets. This took place either on arrival or before the feast.

In the Old Testament, feet were sometimes used to represent the complete person. This is demonstrated in the ancient warning.

'Withdraw thy foot from thy neighbours house, lest he be weary of thee, and so hate thee.'

Proverbs 25:17

Feet also figured in situations where someone had authority over another person or place and under the feet symbolised triumph over enemies. Vanquished enemies for examples were under the feet of their conquerors. A common practice among sandal wearers was to etch figures of their enemy to crush them with every step.

'Thus they inclosed the Benjamites round about and chased them, and trode them down with ease over against Gibeah toward the sunrising.'

Judges 20:43

The art of walking may parallel the art of negotiation.
