SPIRITUAL
DIARY FOR 01-22-03
My
Worship Time Focus: The Importance of Obeying God
Bible
Reading & Meditation Reference: Hebrews 3:18-19
1. Message of the verse: “And to whom did He swear that they would not
enter His rest, but to those who did not obey?
So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.” (NKJV)
“And to whom was God speaking when He vowed that they would never enter
His place of rest? He was speaking to
those who disobeyed Him. So we see that
they were not able to enter because
of unbelief.” (NLT)
This verse
concludes this exhortation and gives the example to whom the writer is speaking
about. The writer is speaking about the
children of Israel who were not permitted to enter the promise land because they believed the majority report that
they could not concur the giants who lived in the promise land. As stated before, these people had seen many
miracles done by God to get them out of Egypt and also to keep them going while
on their way to the promise land. The
sin that kept them out of the promise land was the sin of unbelief. They did not have faith that God could conquer
the giants in the land for them.
2. Spiritual meaning for my life today: I see from these verses that I need to trust
the Lord for everything in my life, even though things do not seem to be going
right I need to trust the Lord to work things out for good.
The Word of God continues to teach me the benefits of
trusting the Lord.
My Steps
of Faith Today: I trust the
Lord to work thing out for this situation with Dave and his birthday party and
also the things that are going on between he and us.
Memory verse for the week:
Romans 12:5 (NIV)
So in Christ we who are many form one body, and each member
belongs to all the others.
