Devotion From: Hebrews 2:1-4
God, that first verse hit me square between the eyes. Those words “pay much closer attention” are screaming at me. I realize that I don’t “pay much closer attention” because of lack of priority of Christ in my life. When I drift away, I’m not drifting from faith or feeling strong, I’m drifting from Christ himself (Hebrews 2:1).
I’m not sure what You’re trying to say, God, in Hebrews 2:2-4. What are the ways we neglect salvation, other than unbelief? What kind of retributions would we face for neglecting salvation? I suppose it doesn’t really matter as long as I pay much closer attention to the superiority of Christ in my life, above all other areas.
Heavenly Father, today I simply pray, help me to pay closer attention. Help me to pay closer attention to the details of the superiority you must have in my life. Help me to discern clearly the areas that perhaps I am neglecting salvation. Give me the wisdom and clarity of sight to help me pay closer attention. Would you allow people to speak into my life to keep me accountable to paying closer attention to my priorities. Amen.
