Hold The Confession Of Your Hope
Heb. 10:19-23
Consistent faith is evidenced in drawing near to Jesus Christ sincerely and believing in His goodness. The word “Boldness” (Greek – parrhesia) appears four times in the book of Hebrew. Sometimes it means “bedrock belief” or “bold assurance”. It means here, authorised freedom (though with humility) to enter the holiest place of God’s presence because of the blood of Jesus’, this kind of opportunity was not available under the Old Testament. The new and living way to God is made possible by Jesus’ sacrificial death for those who have faith in Him. Where there is no drawing near to God and fellowship with Christ, there is no saving faith. In the midst of fiery trial, make sure that you hold the confession of your faith and hope in Christ. The battle is almost over.
Point of Emphasis: Hold the profession of your faith without wavering.
Prayer Point: Draw me near O Lord, so that I can dine at Your table all the time.

RETIENS LA CONFESSION DE TON ESPERANCE
HEBREUX 10 :19-23
La foi consistante se démontre de façon sincère dans notre rapprochement à Jésus-Christ en croyant à sa bonté. Le mot ‘hardiesse’ (en grec – parrhesia) apparaît quatre fois dans le livre d’Hébreux. Souvent, il veut dire ‘conviction fondamentale’ or ‘assurance ferme’. Il veut dire ici liberté conférée, cependant avec humilité d’entrer au lieu plus saint de la présence de Dieu à cause du sang de Jésus. Ce genre d’opportunité n’a pas existé sous l’Ancien Testament. La route nouvelle et vivante à Dieu est rendue possible grâce à la mort sacrificielle de Jésus pour ceux qui ont foi en lui. Là où il n’y a pas de rapprochement à Dieu et de communion avec Christ, il n’existe pas de foi salvatrice. Au milieu de la fournaise, assure-toi que tu retiennes la profession de ta foi et de ton espérance en Christ. La bataille est presque finie.
Point essentiel: Retiens fermement la profession de ta foi.
Axe de prière : Rapproche-moi de toi, Seigneur, afin que je puisse dîner avec toi tout le temps.
