"See to it, brothers, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God" (Hebrews 3:13 NIV).
The big difference between God and the millions of pseudo gods is that our God is alive! The living God deserves a living, active faith. Today's text is a timely one. Brothers and sisters, see to it (that demands action on our part) that none of you have "an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God" (NKJV).
If you think that God is just a part of the dim and distant past, you will not be likely to serve Him with much fervor. In fact, you are in danger of turning away from Him. But if you believe that He is "the living God" you will be motivated to serve Him with all your heart, mind, strength, and soul. A living God demands and deserves a living faith!
Hymn: "Have faith in God though all else fail about you; Have faith in God, He provides for His own; He cannot fail though all kingdoms shall perish, He rules, He reigns upon His throne." (B. B. McKinney)
