HEBREWS
3:1
Five times in Scriptures the word 'fix' is used by God to
give us direction. God gives us a clear direction to keep our focus fixed upon His
will; for us to permanently maintain our focus, our center of attention, firmly
on God.
1. Deuteronomy 11:18 (NIV) Fix these words of mine in your
hearts and minds.
Here, we are admonishes to keep our hearts and minds, our
intellect and the very fiber of our being, always feasting on the word of God,
constantly meditating on His word and doing His will.
2 .Proverbs 4:24-31 (NIV). Fix your gaze directly before
you. Make level paths for your feet and take only ways that are firm. Do not
swerve to the right or the left; keep your foot from evil.
This verse cautions us to keep our direction on the right
path, to follow only His ways, to not be side-tracked by distractions, but to
stay on the firm path of the King’s highway.
3. 2 Corinthians 4:18 (NIV). So we fix our eyes not on what is
seen, but on what is unseen; for what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen
is eternal.
This is a reminder to keep looking through the eyes of faith
to God, and the things of heaven. For the things of this world will pass, but
the eternal things of God will never fade or pass away. Keep you focus in the
center of His will.
4. Hebrews 3:1 (NIV).
Fix your thoughts on Jesus.
Your thoughts can be the hardest battleground to fight for. Nevertheless,
when you keep your thoughts fixed on Jesus, He will guard your heart and mind
and keep you pure. When we fix our thoughts on Jesus, we do not dwell on the
negative things of this world, but rather the positive attributes of the
Kingdom of God.
5. Hebrews 12:2 (NIV). Let us fix our eyes on Jesus.
There is no one more beautiful than Jesus to fix your eyes
upon. Let us fix our eyes on His ultimate sacrifice on the cross of Calvary for
our sins. Fix our eyes upon His glorious resurrection; fix our eyes upon Jesus,
the Lover of our souls. Fix our eyes upon Jesus to be saved, healed, delivered
and set free. Let us fix our eyes upon Jesus in our time of need. Fix your eyes
on Jesus at all times.
My friend, as the Bible says in five different occasions,
each with a practical and life-changing meaning, 'Let us fix' our hearts, our
minds, our gaze, our thoughts and our eyes constantly upon God’s word, the
things of His kingdom, His direction, things that are eternal in heaven, but
most of all, let us fix our eyes on Jesus and never take them off Him.
