Daily Bible Reading – April 2020 God’s Life-Giving Word Of Hopeનમૂનો

  

April 23

Introduction

Today’s reading cites two priests mentioned in the Old Testament—Melchizedek (Genesis 14:17-20) and Aaron (Exodus 28 and 29). God made Jesus the High Priest who “became the source of eternal salvation for all those who obey him” (5:9). Believers are encouraged to approach God’s throne of grace and mercy with confidence.

Today’s Scripture: Hebrews 4:14b

For we have a great High Priest who has gone into the very presence of God—Jesus, the Son of God.

Today’s Reading 

Hebrews 4:14—5:10

Reflect

How is Jesus described in verse 4:15? What does this verse teach you about Jesus? Where in your life do you encounter temptation? What does knowing that Jesus can empathize with your experience mean to you?

Pray

Lord Jesus, you are my great High Priest. In the face of temptation, you have taught me to remain faithful to your Word. Strengthen me against the temptations in my life so that I may live as your true disciple. Amen.
