My
Worship Time Focus: Encourage One Another
Bible
Reading & Meditation Reference: Hebrews 3:13
1.
Message of the verse:
“but exhort one another daily, while it is called "Today,"
lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.” (NKJV)
“You must warn each other every day, as long as it is called “today,” so
that none of you will be deceived by sin and hardened against God.” (NLT)
The writer encourages the readers of this letter to encourage and exhort
one another both in their daily lives and also in their corporate worship when
they met together with other church members.
The needed to exhort each other because of the persecution and also
because of their temptation to go back into Judaism. One of the reasons he was encouraging them to
exhort each other was so that they would not have their hearts become hardened
because of the deceitfulness of sin which he point out in the latter part of
the verse.

Spiritual meaning for my life today. As the writer points out sin is very
deceitful and if I allow myself become continually involved in sin then it will
get control of my life and I will not be able to live a life for the Lord Jesus
Christ and His cause.
The Word of God did bring conviction to my heart today.
My Steps
of Faith Today: To trust the
Lord for His success for our Bible study and also for the way Dave’s room turns
out.
Memory verses for the week:
Ehp. 2:10 & Mark 12:30
For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do
good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all
your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.
