9TH NOVEMBER
Hebrews 3:12-15
“Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God. But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called “today,” that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.… Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion.”
Fellowship is one of the tools God has given us to transform our lives!
Do you see in your own life the danger that this passage warns us about? Do you feel your heart growing hard toward God in some area? The best way to avoid a hardened heart is to get close to other people who have a real love for God. Really get into each other’s spiritual lives.
Don’t just hang out together. Rather, share with each other what’s happening in your spiritual lives. Talk about what God is teaching you. Pray together. Study the Bible together.
You’ll find that this keeps your heart soft toward God and you’ll be growing spiritually as you “encourage one another.”
