When Christians drift from God's word, they become vulnerable to sin and its devastating consequences. The Bible serves as an instruction book for living, guiding us on how to live a godly life and relate to others. However, many people struggle to understand and apply its principles due to ignorance or willfully laying it aside. As a result, sin develops, rationalization and defense follow, and hardness of heart sets in, leading to unwise counsel, ungodly decisions, and unwanted consequences. Ultimately, wandering from the Word leads to loss, while sticking with it brings victory.

A hardened heart can lead to spiritual rebellion and a drifting away from God's will. This is often caused by preoccupation with other things, absence of private devotion and public worship, and the deceitfulness of sin. It is a dangerous thing to resist God's appeal and harden one's heart, but surrendering to Him can revolutionize one's heart and soften one's spirit.

The will of God for everyone to be saved is clear, and it is not based on performance or behavior but on faith and the gift of God's grace. When you are born again, you are a new creation with a divine nature, sealed by the Holy Spirit of promise, and seated with Christ in the heavenly places. Your salvation is secure, and you cannot be lost, as it is the will of God for you to have eternal life.

The will of God is for everyone to be saved, and salvation is by grace through faith in Jesus Christ, not by performance or behavior. Faith is the foundation of salvation, and it is not something we do, but rather a gift from God. Repentance and faith are two sides of the same coin, and placing faith in Jesus Christ is an act of repentance. Salvation is not about being better or performing in a certain way, but rather about receiving Jesus Christ as Savior and accepting Him as our Lord.

Developing a private prayer life is essential for building a strong relationship with God. By setting aside time, finding a quiet place, and having a plan, individuals can deepen their faith and become more like Jesus Christ. As they focus on God, they will experience transformation, and their lives will become a hiding place for others, providing comfort, encouragement, and protection in times of trouble.

Obedience to God is a serious decision that requires a deep yearning to follow His commands and live a life of submission to His will. Without the Holy Spirit's guidance, it is impossible to live a life of obedience, and disobedience can lead to consequences and hinder our growth as believers.
