Psalm 95
1 Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD;
let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.
2 Let us come before him with thanksgiving
and extol him with music and song.
3 For the LORD is the great God,
the great King above all gods.
4 In his hand are the depths of the earth,
and the mountain peaks belong to him.
5 The sea is his, for he made it,
and his hands formed the dry land.
6 Come, let us bow down in worship,
let us kneel before the LORD our Maker;
7 for he is our God
and we are the people of his pasture,
the flock under his care.
Today, if you hear his voice,
8 do not harden your hearts as you did at Meribah, [a]
as you did that day at Massah [b] in the desert,
9 where your fathers tested and tried me,
though they had seen what I did.
10 For forty years I was angry with that generation;
I said, "They are a people whose hearts go astray,
and they have not known my ways."
11 So I declared on oath in my anger,
"They shall never enter my rest."
Crow: It is dangerous and yet so easy for my heart to be hardened and not teachable to the Lord's word...Now i'm feeling weary, and i fear that i am not entering the Lord's rest.. But i feel the Lord telling me not to worry and so long as i constantly seek the Lord and keep watch over the way i live my life, He will bless.. Long time ago, i used to think that the israelites were very ungrateful, and how can they turn against the Lord.. but the past few yrs, whenever i read about the Israelites, i will be reminding myself that it is so so easy to be like them... to harden my heart and turn away... especially when things dun go our way... Lord help me to be watchful always
Chin Ling: Yes, may I always remember that The Lord is the maker and in control of it all. May I remember that what he really wants is to be able to fellowship with me and be my friend. May I remember to always look at my life and be filled with gratitude before of Jesus. May I always remamber that Jesus is my Lord and saviour. May I remember that it is God's command to enter his rest. May I always remember!
Eunice: Oh Lord, I pray for a heart that will always sing of your joy, and give thanksgiving. God, take away my spirit of complaining or commenting, or whatever that is called. I want to be obedient to you, to seek your kingdom first. I agree with crow to say that it is so easy, to harden my heart and walk away. God, I do not want to walk away from you. Teach me to always bow down in worship and kneel before you! For indeed, you are the Lord my God! Jesus, your will be done.
Pam: God is good and one that never fail to give us reminders.... The phrase "do not harden your heart" appeared twice to me this week... and I noe He is reminding me not to turn colder... And He gave ans to my "whys" this morning during staff devo. Lord, how can I bear to turn away from You when you love me this much? Thank you.. I am overwhelmed. :D
Huijuan: Let me not hardened my hearts but allow u to always mold me. Although at times i do not know what u are doing in my life, ut help me to trust in u.
Aileen: I think sometimes it's really easy for me to forget God and harden my heart. Sometimes it's so difficult to hear God's voice or worse recognize that it is him. So my pray is God please soften my heart. I want to be like Mary, i want to hear you and do what you say
Dellia: Lord, help me..that I will never harden my heart towards Your voice...but each time when I hear You, I will obey immediately.
