Scripture Reading:
Hebrews 12:25-29 (NLT2) – Be careful that you do not refuse to listen to
the One who is speaking. For if the people of Israel did not escape when
they refused to listen to Moses, the earthly messenger, we will certainly not
escape if we reject the One who speaks to us from heaven! 26 When God
spoke from Mount Sinai his voice shook the earth, but now he makes
another promise: “Once again I will shake not only the earth but the
heavens also.” 27 This means that all of creation will be shaken and
removed, so that only unshakable things will remain. 28 Since we are
receiving a Kingdom that is unshakable, let us be thankful and please God
by worshiping him with holy fear and awe. 29 For our God is a devouring
fire.
