Welcome to the Holy of Holies

Posted on by Marla

 

Jesus is our high priest,
Intercessor and our king…
Living, breathing, son of God
He is everything…
Even from the beginning…
Adam walked with him
Abraham had faith in him
Moses was face to face with him
Samuel called, by him
David sang to him
Solomon wrote of him
Shadows in the ancient world
Revealing He’s always been
Down through the ages
He came as human man
Died and rose again
No longer would we wonder
What lies behind the veil?
Now fully, His blood-sacrifice, will forever prevail
Come boldly to the mercy-seat
Where Jesus sits; our prayers He meets
Enter the Holy of Holies
Spirit now abide
Where once, we could not go…
No barriers constrain us, our father we’ll behold…
Jesus, our high priest…
Welcomes us to be bold!!!

Hebrews 4:14-16 New International Version (NIV) Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has ascended into heaven, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are—yet he did not sin. Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.

I love the Lord Jesus Christ and am passionate about writing. I hope you enjoy the blog and come to visit often. Then the Lord answered me and said: “Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry. “Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2: 2-4
