READ: Hebrews 3:12-19
“See to it, brothers, that none of you has a sinful, unbelieving heart that turns away from the living God.” – Hebrews 3:12, NIV
There are unbending hearts which never yield, never give in, never give up, never say yes, never say no, never agree, never flow and never submit. It is important to avoid having an unbending heart. Without the right kind of heart you cannot accomplish much for the Lord. Because the heart is the centre of your ministry, it will determine the outcome of everything you do.
Fight against a firm stony heart. A stony heart is a heart that does not show any sympathy or friendliness. “His heart is as firm as a stone; yea, as hard as a piece of the nether millstone” (Job 41:24).
Fight against a backslidden heart. A backslidden heart is a heart that has dropped to a lower level or standard. A person with a backslidden heart has failed to serve the Lord as he promised and agreed to. Usually, a person with a backslidden heart has begun to do something undesirable that he had previously stopped.
“The backslider in heart shall be filled with his own ways: and a good man shall be satisfied from himself” (Proverbs 14:14).
Fight against a foolish heart. A foolish heart is a heart that is not sensible and shows a lack of judgement.
“The lips of the wise disperse knowledge: but the heart of the foolish doeth not so” (Proverbs 15:7).
