Do Not Harden Your Hearts

In this message, we're reminded of the dangers of hardening our hearts against God's calling. The central story from Numbers 13-14 about the Israelites at the edge of the Promised Land serves as a stark warning. Just as the Israelites let fear and doubt overcome their faith, we too can fall into the trap of disbelief. The key lesson here is that sin deceives us gradually, building up calluses on our hearts through small acts of disobedience. We're challenged to remain faithful in the little things, just as David's victories over lions and bears prepared him for Goliath. This message urges us to encourage one another daily, to stay soft-hearted to God's voice, and to trust in His promises even when faced with seemingly insurmountable obstacles. It's a call to perseverance, reminding us that our faith journey is not just about big moments, but about consistent, daily choices to trust God.
