“And since we now have a magnificent High Priest to welcome us into God’s house, we come closer to God and approach him with an open heart, fully convinced that nothing will keep us at a distance from him. For our hearts have been sprinkled with blood to remove impurity, and we have been freed from an accusing conscience. Now we are clean, unstained, and presentable to God inside and out!”
Hebrews 10:21-22 TPT
Observation:
Here we see that because of Jesus, we can approach God with confidence and boldness. He welcomes us into His presence and we are fully convinced that nothing will keep us at a distance from him. We are now clean, in stained, and presentable to God inside and out. Our confidence is not in our own righteousness, but in Jesus sacrifice. We are free from an accusing conscience.
Application:
We need to believe what the Word says above all else. The enemy wants us to think we don’t have access because we have done wrong things and disobeyed God at times. Jesus blood paid the eternal sacrifice and was sufficient to cleanse us completely. We must walk in that confidence and know that we are presentable to God. I cannot make myself more presentable to God by my works.
Prayer:
Father, thank You for adopting me into Your family. I am amazed at Your love for me. Thank You for confirming this morning that I am cleansed, I stained and presentable to the Father. Help me to walk in that confidence more and more. Show me how to lead Your church. Teach me how to lead as You would lead.
Your Son,
Jeff
