Let us then approach the throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. Hebrews 4:16
We are to approach the throne of God with confidence.
Yes, we are to be humble, grateful and reverent because He is our King.
But we can also be confident, bold, and assured of being heard, because He is our Friend and Counselor.
Isn't it amazing that the God who created the entire world, indeed - who runs the universe! - is not too busy to listen to one single voice rising to the throne?!
Incredible. That we would have the ear of the King of Kings!
And not just any King. This King understands what it's like to be human because He was human. He knows all about struggles, temptations, betrayal and more. He can sympathize and empathize with us. But He can also encourage us and inspire us because despite all the temptations He faced, He lived a perfect life. We do not have to sin. There is a way out.
We have the ear of the King. We must not pass up the opportunity to use it!
So approach the throne; in reverence and in confidence - but approach!!
Tomorrow's passage: Hebrews 8-10
