So
Great A Salvation
Therefore
we must give the more earnest heed to the things we have heard, lest we drift
away. For if the word spoken through
angels proved steadfast, and every transgression and disobedience received a
just reward, how shall we escape if we neglect so great a salvation, which at
the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed to us by those who
heard Him, God also bearing witness both with signs and wonders, with various
miracles, and gifts of the Holy Spirit, according to His own will?
Hebrews 2:1-14
Reflect
on the timely caution given to believers in the book of Hebrews: “We must pay
the most careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not
drift away. We have good reason to stay close.
Drifting
in our relationship with God is hardly noticeable at first; it happens
gradually. However, spending time talking with him in prayer and reading His
Word, confessing our wrongs to Him, and interacting with other followers of
Jesus can help us stay anchored in Him. As we connect with the Lord regularly,
He will be faithful to sustain us, and we can avoid drifting away.
To avoid drifting away from God, stay anchored to the
Rock.
