Do Not Refuse to Listen to GOD

Hebrews 12:25a

"So be careful and do not refuse to listen when God speaks."

One day, you were in a rush to go to school. You chose to walk through the short but rocky path to reach school. However, because you were running, you stumbled on one of the rocks and fell down. You ended up having a bleeding knee and a torn school bag. After this incident, will you run again on that rocky path? Obviously, you’ve learnt your lesson and you will walk more carefully in the future. 

These verses actually recorded how the Israelites tried to protect themselves from their enemies. They did all they could to defend themselves. They built ditches around the city, fortified it with walls, and some even ran away in fear. 

But through it all, they refused to turn to GOD! They had experienced and witnessed God’s help countless times yet they still hadn’t learnt their lesson. Only when they were badly defeated did they start to turn back to God. 

Don't be like the Israelites in this story. Do not ever refuse to listen to God. Learn your lesson well, and once. We don't have to be knocked down by hard lessons for many times first before we remember God, right?

Prayer

Dear God, soften my heart to always listen to You. I always want to put You first in everything I do. Amen.
