God’s Throne
Today : God’s Throne
TODAY’S VERSE
“So then, since we have a great High Priest who has entered heaven, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to what we believe. This High Priest of ours understands our weaknesses, for he faced all of the same testings we do, yet he did not sin. So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive his mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most.” Hebrew 4:14-16 (NLT)
TODAY’S THOUGHT
Sometimes you need a helping hand. You need someone who understands what you are going through and can help you navigate difficult times. Jesus is that intercessor. He is God with all the power and wisdom we need, yet because of His volunteer time spent on earth in human form, He knows exactly what we are going through. He knows all our limitations, frailty, emotions and how to work with them and live a victorious life. He can guide us down the same path of faith, strength, hope and love that He took. So let’s do what the author of Hebrews suggests. Let’s come boldly to our gracious God and ask Him for the help we need today. We will find Him gracious, compassionate and able to help us when we need it the most.
TODAY’S PRAYER
Dear Jesus, I come to You because You know all about me. You know my situation. You know my thoughts, my frustrations and my desires. You know my needs. I come to You because You are the Almighty God and can do all things. And yet with all Your Holiness, You are still endlessly compassionate toward me. You promised that if I come to You, You will help me when I need it the most. I come to You now. I give You this day with all of its challenges, struggles and complexities. Make me conscious of Your presence as You meet the deepest needs of my heart and life today. In Jesus’ name.
AMEN
TODAY’S AFFIRMATION & MEDITATION
I come boldly to the throne of our gracious God
Quiet your heart and sense the loving presence of God. Picture God’s throne a far off. Slowly start to approach God on the throne. As you do, sense His pleasure in your approaching Him. Feel a joy deep within you and imagine coming boldly into God’s very throne room. Say to God, “I come dear God for Your grace and mercy and thank You for Your wonderful love for me.”
