A WARNING AGAINST DRIFTING AWAY
Hebrews 2:1-4 Therefore, we must pay much closer attention to what we have heard, lest we drift away from it. For since the message declared by angels proved to be reliable, and every transgression or disobedience received a just retribution, how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation? It was declared first by the Lord, and it was attested to us by those who heard, while God also bore witness by signs and wonders and various miracles and by gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will.
The best way to pay attention to what you have heard is to listen to it every day. When we hear the Word, it motivates us to be obedient, so we need it daily. Because God keeps His promise of grace;, every violation of the law and every act of disobedience was punished. Therefore, the only way to escape Spiritual death is through Christ, our Lord and Savior.
Lord, thank You for Jesus' new covenant that is far superior to the old covenant. Jesus is our Fruit of the Spirit; and the Savior that encourages us to move beyond question. Lord, let us become disciples like the many faithful men and women of the past; who followed You amid persecution. Father, Your throne endures forever and ever; You love justice and hate evil. In the beginning, Lord, You laid the foundation of our lives; help us walk in Your will. Father, our flesh will wear out like old clothing; but our Spirits like You will remain forever. Lord, give us the patience of Job, so we can receive what You have promised. In the name of Jesus, Amen
