SCRIPTURE: Hebrews (NIV) 1:1 In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways, 2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe. …
2:1 We must pay more careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away. 2 For if the message spoken by angels was binding, and every violation and disobedience received its just punishment, 3 how shall we escape if we ignore such a great salvation? This salvation, which was first announced by the Lord, was confirmed to us by those who heard him. 4 God also testified to it by signs, wonders and various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit distributed according to his will.
OBSERVATION: If it was important to listen to the prophets that God sent in Old Testament days, how much more is it important to listen to the message that Jesus brought! To ignore the truth Jesus brought can only mean eternal separation from God.
God is still testifying to His word by “signs, wonders, and various miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit.” This week Apostle Alex has taken the SOAP ministry into Masanta, Guinea-Conakry. The report I received yesterday told of many miracles and healings. Apostle Alex wrote, “the entire Masanta city God has turned into a Revival healing ground.” Thousands of people have accepted Jesus in a city where Christian have been killed.
APPLICATION: Of all the messages I hear today, none is more important that what God says to me. I must “pay more careful attention.” I must remain vigilant. Knowing His voice, listening to what He says helps me evaluate the other messages I hear. I am instructed to prove all things; hold fast to that which is good. (1Thessalonians 5:21)
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, continue to speak to me through your Word and by your Holy Spirit. Your Word is the standard by which I can evaluate all things and live a holy life in a world of confused messages. Amen
