Today’s reading is Hebrews 7
“This makes Jesus the guarantor of a better covenant. The former priests were many in number, because they were prevented by death from continuing in office, but he holds his priesthood permanently, because he continues forever. Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.”
Hebrews 7:22-25 ESV

All,
This stands out because the writer of Hebrews says, “Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him”. Jesus loves everyone and wants to save us. He offers us intercession, but do we accept it? Do we look to Jesus for power or to ourselves? It’s the same as if assuming we could swim the Pacific Ocean. We can try hard, but it’s impossible to draw near to God without Jesus. Please pray that we and our friends spend time with Jesus today and obey what He says. Please pray for Tyson’s group as they have their commitment meeting tonight.
