Hebrews 4: 14 – 16 (The Message Version)
14-16 Now that we know what we have—JESUS, this great High Priest with ready access to God—let’s not let it slip through our fingers. We don’t have a priest who is out of touch with our reality. He’s been through weakness and testing, experienced it all—all but the sin. So let’s walk right up to him and get what he is so ready to give. Take the mercy, accept the help.
God is encouraging us to walk daily in Him with the understanding of our divine privileges, most especially when we find ourselves struggling. He wants us to take after His divine nature in our earthly state and remain victorious until the Second Coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.
“God is able to save completely all who come to God through Him. Since he will live forever, He will always be there to remind God that He has paid for their sins with HIS BLOOD” – Hebrews 7:25 (The Living Bible).
In our relationship with Heaven, we are to constantly walk in the footsteps of Jesus during the trials of our faith, not to debase ourselves but to keep our dignity intact in the regular practice of the principles of God.
To do all we can to avoid the danger of losing our stand and the authority that we have in Him as believers and family of God.
The GREAT OFFICE OF CHRIST is our ground for approaching the throne of Grace, we must keep our confidence safe in the arms of the Mediator (JESUS), as those that have been truly reconciled to God and completely sorted by the blood of Jesus – Romans 5:10 (The Living Bible)
“And since when we were His enemies, we were brought back to God by the death of His son, what blessings He must have for us now that we are His friends and He is living within us! – Romans 5:10 (The Living Bible)
*Thank God for the HELP God has made provision for, since the foundation of the world. Show heartfelt appreciation to Him for the great privilege that we enjoy as a family of God through JESUS CHRIST*
