Never To Drift Away



So we must listen very carefully to the truth we have heard, or we may drift away from it.

—Hebrews 2:1 (NLT)



Help me never to drift away from the truth, but always be careful to listen as—by Your Holy Spirit within me—you return me to the perfect way of truth.


Help me to hold the truth that I have found—and that I continue to find revealed in Your Word—as among the most precious gifts I have ever been given.

Help me to be careful to remember the truth—by regularly searching it out and meditating upon it, embracing it wholeheartedly—in order that I might apply Your truth in every situation or circumstance in which I find myself, as I mix my faith with Your truth.

Help me to recognize and guard against the weakness of mind.  For Your truth is so quick to drain from my heart when I allow the enemy access to my thoughts and begin to listen to the subtle lies that he suggests—or to the condemnation that he spews—as he tries to steal the truth away from me.

Create in me an insatiable hunger to find and retain more of Your truth—in every moment that I live—that I would not drift away.


Help me never to drift away from the truth, but always be careful to listen as—by Your Holy Spirit within me—you return me to the perfect way of truth.


In the name of Jesus, Amen.
