«Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.» Hebrews 4:16 (ESV)
Before He died and rose again, Jesus told us not to worry because He would prepare a home for us. Since then, He has been preparing your home and mine in Heaven, where we will be eternally happy, without pain, sickness, death, or tears.
Jesus is also doing other amazing things for us. He is close to coming back, and He doesn’t want anyone to stay out of Heaven. That is why He sent the Holy Spirit to guide everyone to get to know Jesus. Pay attention when the Holy Spirit gives you the desire to hear stories of Jesus or to pray and give your heart to Jesus.
Another thing Jesus is doing is helping you win when Satan whispers in your ear to do something wrong. During those times, just pray asking Jesus not to let you do what Satan wants. When you get on your knees and say the name of Jesus, Satan runs away in fear.
Jesus is also working to make you trust Him more each day. Sometimes He takes time to answer your prayers so that you learn to be patient and wait. This makes your trust in Him perfect.
Jesus is still doing something very special and in tomorrow’s devotional you will know what!
Let’s practice!
Repeat the verse: “Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need” (Hebrews 4:16, ESV).
