Love God Greatly: Jesus Our Everythingഉദാഹരണം

After his introduction, the author of Hebrews explained all the ways Jesus is superior, beginning first with His superiority and authority over the angels. The angels indeed have a crucial role in God’s kingdom, as ministers to serve His people. However, Jesus is far superior to the angels, even in their significance.

Jesus is the one whose throne is established forever. Jesus is eternal: He has always and will always exist. His throne, therefore, will also exist forever. The author of Hebrews will continue this theme of Jesus’ eternal rule and reign throughout the book. 

The focus of Jesus’ superiority is not on His sinless life on earth but on who He is. He is the eternal Son of God, who always is and always will be. He will reign forever. He has destroyed sin once and for all, imputing us with His righteousness. His righteousness and faithfulness sustains all things, including all of the uncertainties of our lives.

Jesus, I recognize Your majesty. You alone are righteous and You have chosen to grant me Your righteousness by grace alone. Help me believe Your sacrifice is enough and not attempt to earn my salvation by works or actions. I believe You are holy and righteous and I know I desperately need You. Amen.
