Hebrews 3:7-14
The Holy Spirit says: Oh, that today you would hear his voice, "Harden not your hearts as at the rebellion in the day of testing in the desert, where your ancestors tested and tried me and saw my works for forty years. Because of this I was provoked with that generation and I said, 'They have always been of erring heart, and they do not know my ways.' As I swore in my wrath, 'They shall not enter into my rest.'" Take care, brothers and sisters, that none of you may have an evil and unfaithful heart, so as to forsake the living God. Encourage yourselves daily while it is still "today," so that none of you may grow hardened by the deceit of sin. We have become partners of Christ if only we hold the beginning of the reality firm until the end.
Dawg's thought:
Today's prayer intention is for those in the Middle East that they may know God's presence in this time of turmoil.
Hold... firm. The words bring to mind, for me at least, fallen angels that do not glorify God, that are clawing and grasping. The deceit of the evil one is trying to lure our souls into the neither world.
We must must approach everyday with discipline in all aspects of our lives. Our thoughts. Our bodies. Our souls. We must submit these to The Holy Spirit that calls to us today because the alternative is grasping and clawing... seducing and deceiving.
Today, listen to The Holy Spirit, Who speaks to you now, "Harden not your hearts." Take care and God Bless.
