“…we have confidence to enter the holy places by the blood of Jesus… Heb10.19 ESV
As a diver can plummet ocean depths with an aqua-lung and live so we can enter the presence of a holy God because of the blood of Jesus and also live. Christ is our absolute acceptance. We greatly honor His sacrifice when we enter God’s presence with the same great confidence that Jesus has when He approaches His Father. We can be confident, greatly confident not only of our acceptance but also that God will favorably answer all petitions, which are covered by the blood and honor the purposes for which it stands.
The Holy Spirit has chided me in my prayers, not because of my unworthiness to approach and ask but when I ask with little confidence that God will answer. Can you imagine Jesus ever wondering if the Father will give Him what He is asking? Certainly not! And, nor should we. The blood of God’s Son has paved the way for the very purpose that we might enter and ask. 4/19/2008 ts
Just me trying to be honest with God.
