God Reveals His Truths (Nov 18)
God spoke in times past through
the prophets, but He has reserved
the declaration of His glory for
His Son. By His suffering & death,
Jesus He lifts mankind above
the angels into the family of God.
Because of His perfect humanity,
Jesus is uniquely qualified to serve
as High Priest for sinful mankind.
Moses was a servant in God’s
household, but Christ is the
divine Son over God’s household.
Joshua was Israel’s provider of
peace in the land of Canaan, but
Christ will bring His people into
the eternal resting place of heaven.
Lord, we will Listen to Your Truth:
In these final days, he has spoken
to us through his Son… through
whom also He made the world’s…
and upholding all things by the
word of His power, when He had
by Himself purged our sins (and)
sat down at the right hand of
the Majesty on high (Heb 1:2-3).
We must listen very carefully
to the truth we have heard,
or we may drift away from it…
how shall we escape if we neglect
so great a salvation (Heb 2:1-3)
You have made him a little lower
than the angels; You have crowned
him with glory and honour, and…
You have put all things in subjection
under his feet (Heb 2:7-8).
Lord Jesus, thank You for the book
of Hebrews that shows You are
superior over everyone & everything.
Thank You for all that You have done
for us, for Living in You Christ Jesus
is having the best there is in life.
Whilst we may face challenges,
thanks we’ve direct access to You;
and we can approach Your throne
with confidence. In Jesus’ name.
Lord, speak to me through the
pages of scripture each day and
make them come alive in my heart.
Help me Listen very carefully to
Your Truth; and Challenge me
when I am drifting away from You.
Reveal Your thoughts on applying
of Your Word to my circumstance.
And breathe the saving power of
Your Word deep into me. Amen.
Father God, since I have identified
with Your Son Christ Jesus,
I have truly become one with Him.
I will not look to myself for success
but fix my thoughts on Jesus,
the High Priest of our confession.
It is He who takes my words before
the Father on my behalf, so that
I have the assurance that they
will accomplish its purpose. Amen.
