Heb 4:14 Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is
passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our
profession.
Heb 4:15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
Heb 4:16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
*******
We have to come BOLDLY to the throne of GRACE if we hope to obtain MERCY and find GRACE to HELP IN TIME OF NEED.
This is TRUTH!
Rev_22:21 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.
If we want HELP in our TIME of NEED, and we do want help when we are in need, don't we? If we want this we have to act, we can't expect it to come to us automatically. We can't expect that help to just magically appear. Satan is all about magical, mystical solutions that focus away from God. Satan wants us to believe that when we have a need that God is denying us the help we need, as if we truly comprehend our needs more than our Creator does.
We have to come BOLDLY to the THRONE of GRACE. We have to come boldly to our SAVIOR, trusting in HIM.
How often has it been portrayed in movies and such where a person finds themselves in great need and they go to another person for help? It happens all the time, right? We are told to come BOLDLY to the THRONE of GRACE when we are in need of help. Going to our SAVIOR, telling Him of our needs, knowing He knows all our needs, this is what we need to do. We need to seek our SAVIOR and the GRACE our LORD has for us. When we seek HIM boldly, we are going to the source of our Salvation and that is our greatest need of all.
The grace of God helps us when we are in need, the mercy our Savior gives us allows us to find that grace.
Satan would have us shy away from God, feeling our worthlessness before Him. Satan would have us believe that we are too undeserving to find mercy and grace. Satan would have us get angry at God, rather than have us humble ourselves before Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior.
In all things we need to come BOLDLY to the THRONE of GRACE if we have any hope at all of mercy, of help.
Remember this--
Mat 7:9 Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone?
Mat 7:10 Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent?
Mat 7:11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
'Give good things' and of all good things what is the ultimate 'good thing'? Jesus Christ.
Nothing compares to our Savior, nothing!
Anything we are denied here upon earth, any earthly need, want, hope that is not given to us isn't God denying us- it isn't God giving us a snake when we want a fish, it isn't Him giving us a stone when we desire bread, it's our God KNOWING our greatest need of all and asking US to have faith that He will provide for that greatest of needs, the eternal need that supersedes all earthly, temporary needs.
We don't even need to keep this temporary life in order to gain eternal life. Many, many people will gain eternal life having died since Adam and Eve. So when we pray for our lives to be spared or the lives of loved ones to be spared we have to ultimately trust that if our life or the life of our loved one is taken that it was for our good in some way, for their good.
It's the hardest thing ever to lived through a loved one's passing and accepting it as God's will. Life is extremely hard, comprehending any of the horrible things that happen us are nothing compared to eternity, isn't easy. Things HURT! They hurt mentally, spiritually, physically, they HURT. Things confuse us, depress us, cause us anxiety, and through it all we have to TRUST! We have to believe in the Word of God, knowing that even though the things we are going through are grievous, painful, terrible in many ways that our LORD has our back, in fact He has all of us where it matters most- safe in eternity, our Salvation in Jesus Christ our LORD is assured through our belief in all that He tells us in Word. All that He has proven throughout history makes His Word, His promises, more sure than anything else in existence.
Heb_12:11 Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.
All by HIS GRACE, HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS, HIS LOVE!
