Nebuchadnezzar hardened his heart in pride. His son made no application to his own life. How is your heart in light of Hebrews 3:12-13? It says, “Beware, brethren, lest there be in any of you an evil heart of unbelief in departing from the living God…lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.”
Daniel warned king Nebuchadnezzar to humble his heart. Daniel 4:27. In verse 30 he attributed all strength and greatness to himself. James 4:10 is a clear direction for us. It says, “Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.”
Does your heart stray? Psalm 119:10 says, “With my whole heart I have sought You; oh, let me not wander from Your commandments.” Psalm 86:11 says, “Teach me Your way, O Lord; I will walk in Your truth; unite my heart to fear Your name.” Lord grant me singleness of heart.
