Scripture:
“Because of Christ and our faith in him, we can now come boldly and confidently into God’s presence.”Ephesians 3:12 NLT
Observation:
Paul is describing this beautiful relationship between Jews and Gentiles and how Jesus took away everything that separates them. He continues that thought by saying that because of Christ, we can not come boldly and confidently, Jews and Gentiles, into God’s presence. We have access through Christ Jesus.
Application:
Sometimes we come to God, but we don’t come boldly and with confidence. It is the blood of Jesus that makes us holy and acceptable in God’s sight, not our own righteousness. On our own, we have no way into the presence of God, but through Christ, His very own Son, we can come boldly and confidently. We have access is His very own children.
Prayer:
Father, thank You for access. Thank You for loving me and accepting me. Thank You for sending Christ to work in my life. You have done all the work so I could enter in. You made a way for me. Help me to come boldly and confidently into Your presence and to enjoy that as much as a child jumps into his father’s arms.
Yours Forever,
Jeff
