JESUS CHRIST, OUR HIGH PRIEST

 "Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. Hebrews 4:14 (NKJV)"


After the resurrection, Jesus ascended into heaven. He went into the Holy of Holies in heaven as a High Priest with his own blood to obtain the salvation of the whole world. And he is forever sited in Heaven as our High Priest always praying for us. One of the things that should give you courage is knowing that Jesus Christ is your High Priest. This is good news because this High Priest, who is now in heaven, lived a life like yours. He was tempted and tested by the devil, just like you. So, He fully understands what you are going through.

The Bible says:
"For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. Hebrews 4:15–16 (NKJV)"


So you need to be brave and believe that God hears you—not just because you pray, but because you have a High Priest who prays for you. And He doesn't just pray for you, He also understands your struggles.

If your body is weak, He knows that very well. If you are facing life challenges, Jesus knows them too because He lived on earth. He went through hard times, poverty, rejection, lies, and hatred. Jesus also took away your sicknesses, and He knows the pain you are feeling.

Jesus Christ is now sitting at the right hand of God the Father, praying for you. So don’t give up. Even if you fall, get up again and be strong in this word. Give Him all the burdens that are too heavy for you.

Prayer: Thank You, Lord Jesus, for being my High Priest. Today I give You my life—help me in all my weaknesses. Amen.

THE TIME TO RECEIVE THE FRUITS OF YOUR LABOUR IS NOW

  “Say to the righteous that it shall be well with them, For they shall eat the fruit of their doings. Isaiah 3:10 NKJV This is a powerful word of hope as you begin this month.

THE WISEST THING TO DO IN YOUR LIFE

  Daniel 12:3 (GNT) says, “The wise leaders will shine with all the brightness of the sky. And those who have taught many people to do what is right will shine like the stars forever.” This verse speaks about the reward God will give His faithful people on the last day. Those who live with wisdom and lead others to righteousness will shine like stars in the sky—forever. What a powerful promise! Today, I want to teach you how to be wise so you can receive this reward. The Bible says in James 1:5 (NKJV), “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God...”  This means wisdom comes from God, and He is willing to give it to anyone who asks. When you receive God’s wisdom, you will learn how to live the right way and make decisions that please Him. You will also have the power to guide others. The wisest thing you can ever do in life is to preach the Gospel—to help people turn away from sin and accept Jesus Christ. That is the kind of wisdom that brings eternal rewards. Also, if you ...

DO NOT COMPARE YOURSELF TO OTHERS

  "I know what it is to be poor or to have plenty, and I have lived under all kinds of conditions. I know what it means to be full or to be hungry, to have too much or too little. Philippians 4:12 CEV" God’s purpose for humankind is for everyone to succeed, but each person has their own season. Just as each flower blooms in its own time, each of us has a time set by God. When that season comes, God will make you prosper. Until then, keep praying and working hard, trusting in His timing. When you look at your peers, former classmates, family members, or others in your age group and see their success, it’s easy to start comparing. Maybe a friend just built a new house or got a high-paying job, or perhaps someone you know is getting married. If you feel like you’ve achieved more, you may feel good about yourself. But if you feel like you’re still “behind,” it’s easy to feel discouraged and inadequate. This is where your perspective can become distorted. Some people think they ar...
