We must pay the most careful attention, therefore, to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away. (Hebrews 2:1[NIV]
Have you ever noticed that as the army perform their drills they do so in perfect unison? Much time is spent to ensure they are in harmony. The main reason is to prepare them for any outfit in battle. Should they flee or attack, they will not trample upon each other but since their steps are measured precisely, they can flee comfortably or attack effectively. However should one miss a step, a domino effect will be witnessed as all those behind will fall on each other hence a major catastrophe .
It is the same concept with the word of God and his ordinances. Every detail of the word of God is important and necessary to steer us forward in the right mode. If we miss the harmony of the word of God, other things will come crumbling down on us and we will wonder where the rain hit us hardest. When we seek shortcuts , Bible says ..”you drift away…
When we drift away, we are no longer at ease. That is when things start falling apart ; you toil all day long and don’t get the desired fruits of your labour . If we want to succeed, the word of God must be given its due priority and honour.
