Reading – Hebrews 8

Highlight Verses:

“Here is the main point: We have a High Priest who sat down in the place of honor beside the throne of the majestic God in heaven. There he ministers in the heavenly Tabernacle, the true place of worship that was built by the Lord and not by human hands.”

‭‭Hebrews‬ ‭8‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭NLT‬‬

When the Bible points out the main point, I tend to pay attention.

Here it is.

Jesus is our High Priest.

He is not one who struggles to keep up with the sacrifices and keeping the law from a place that represents God’s presence.

He made the one true sacrifice for all and is now seated right next to the Father!

When we see this High Priest in person (and we will – 1 Corinthians 13:12), we will not only see Him face to face but will be ushered into the very presence of God the Father by the gift of Jesus’ sacrifice that makes us clean!

In case you are wondering whether or not God will have time for you in person among the billions of other people, remember we will have eternity.

That means that Heaven operates outside the bounds of time.

I don’t know what that will look like, but I know it will be amazing.

If you think that will be too much for you, go check out Isaiah chapter 25 – especially verse 8.

Remember He is your Priest guiding you even now in eternal life from the Throne Room itself!

Words cannot describe how awesome that is.

How have you witnessed the presence of God in your life here on Earth?

How many pains and tears will He be wiping away for you? (By the way, that process begins now, not just when you see Him in person, but that’s another whole topic).
