HEBREWS 6:13-20… For when God made the promise to Abraham, since He could swear by no one greater, He swore by Himself, saying, “I will surely bless you and I will surely multiply you.”  And so, having patiently waited, he obtained the promise. For men swear by one greater than themselves, and with them an oath given as confirmation is an end of every dispute.  In the same way God, desiring even more to show to the heirs of the promise the unchangeableness of His purpose, interposed with an oath, so that by two unchangeable things in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have taken refuge would have strong encouragement to take hold of the hope set before us. This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and one which enters within the veil, where Jesus has entered as a forerunner for us, having become a high priest forever according to the order of Melchizedek.

Thank you for your response. ✨

Heavenly Father, I approach You now through the mediation of my High Priest, Jesus Christ my Lord, Your only begotten Son, Who has entered within the veil as my forerunner and has invited me to enter as well and live together with Him there in Your very presence. Such blessing is almost beyond my ability to comprehend. But I thank You, Heavenly Father, for loving me so much that You would want to have such an intimate, personal relationship with me.  Thank You, Lord Jesus, my Lord, my Savior, for Your love and obedience to the will of the Heavenly Father in doing what had to be done and sacrificing Yourself to atone for my sins and make a way for me to enter into that Holy Place where the very presence of God dwells. Thank You for the hope You have cultivated within my heart and may that hope keep me anchored to You forever.
