Revelation of the Word:

THEME: HARDNESS OF HEART

Hebrews‬ ‭3:7-8‬ ‭

“Therefore, as the Holy Spirit says: “Today, if you will hear His voice, Do not harden your hearts as in the rebellion, In the day of trial in the wilderness,”

INSIGHT

-Diverse scriptural references bring out various aspects of human anatomy are used to define the whole person, but the most frequently used is heart. The heart is the seat of human choices (Deuteronomy 8:2; Luke 21:34: Acts 11:23), emotions (Psalm 25:1, Proverbs 14:10; Isaiah 66:14, John 14:1, Romans 9:2), intelligence (Proverbs 16:1; Luke 9:47), morality (Psalm 58:2; Romans 1:24), and one’s religious life (Deuteronomy 6:5; Jeremiah 31:33; Romans 10:9-10; Galatians 4:6). The heart, in effect, is the whole person in all of his or her distinctive human activity as a thinking, planning, willing, feeling, worshiping, socially interacting being. The faith of the Israelites was tested in the wilderness even after they were delivered from their Egyptian masters. Initially, they lost patience after Moses went to mount Sinai and they worshipped a golden calf. They were unstable in thought and heart, and anxiety over food, and their well-being took over. Their unbelief caused a hardening of heart, and many of them perished in the wilderness, and never saw the promised land. The Holy Spirit is calling us to have faith in Him despite the trials and challenges that we go through, and we will rejoice with Him forever in His heavenly kingdom.
