Hebrews 2:1\nDaarom moeten wij al onze aandacht richten op wat we gehoord hebben, dan zullen we niet uit de koers raken. (Hebrews 2:1)\n\n\nEvery single day we have to believe the truth again. This is not to earn favour with God. Nor is it because God isn't capable of saving us. Jesus' work on the cross is enough. The gift is complete. Nothing needs to be added or topped up. Yet we stray. We forget. \n\nWe jump to attention when sin calls us to action as if we are still under Sin's command. We are free, but we have developed a habit of obeying sin rather than God. We are easily deceived and we need to regularly remind our hearts of the truth. Jesus must be our focus. Jesus must captivate our hearts. \n\nDo you have a daily spiritual check list? When life gets difficult do you have a truth list you tell yourself?\nHere are some of the items on my check list:\n\nGod is good!\nGod loves me.\nGod is in control.\nNothing happens by chance and nothing is out of God's control.\nGod knows best. ( God knows better than me!)\nJesus died for me.\nJesus loves my enemies. \nJesus forgives all my sin, past present and future.\nI need to do nothing to earn God's favour.\nI am not a slave to sin; Jesus has set me free.\nJesus rose from the dead to give me an abundant life. \nAn abundant life does not consist of things!\nJesus will meet my needs, not leave me alone, cares for my soul and has shown me the way in his Word and will guide me through the church and the Holy Spirit speaking truth from His Word.\nTo follow Jesus requires suffering and persecution.\n(and more depending on what my heart must hear.)\nWhat is your list?\n\nCan you find some of the truths I tell my self in Hebrews Chapter 2?\n\nWhy not have a look for yourself.\nhttp://bible.com/116/heb.2.1.nlt
