Are You Discouraged?

September 3, 2010 in Spiritual Growth with 2 Comments

Hebrews 10:19-25:

19 Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus, 20 by a new and living way which He consecrated for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh, 21 and having a High Priest over the house of God, 22 let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. 23 Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. 24 And let us consider

one another in order to stir up love and good works, 25 not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching.

This scripture has ministered to me a lot in times of discouragement. When we feel like giving up, that is the time to “draw near”. We need to draw near to God as well as to each other. This will empower us to endure and carry on. Hang in there, you aren’t alone. If you need encouragement feel free to leave a comment or contact me. I’d love to hear from you.

    So encouraging. When we are hurting the flesh wants to curl up and hide. But the Word says to gather together to be stirred up in love and works, seeing the day is fast approaching. We are not alone in this struggle as we feel. We know we have a Great High Priest interceding for us. Be blessed!
