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

  

April 19

Introduction

The Letter to the Hebrews is a teaching sermon that is designed to help explain what the new Christian faith is all about. Today’s passage explains that the ancient prophets spoke God’s message to his people, but now God has sent Jesus to tell God’s message, achieve forgiveness for humanity’s sins, and rule over all creation forever.

Today’s Scripture: Hebrews 1:3a

He reflects the brightness of God’s glory and is the exact likeness of God’s own being.

Today’s Reading 

Hebrews 1:1-14

Reflect

Today’s passage speaks of Jesus “achieving forgiveness for the sins of all human beings,” (verse 3), a reference to Christ as the High Priest (a theme that is treated extensively in Hebrews 9:1—10:18) and that he is in heaven, sitting “at the right side of God,” a traditional way of referring to the glorified Christ (see Psalm 110:1; Matthew 26:64). God has placed Jesus over all things, including the angels (verse 4). Reread verses 4-14. How is God’s Son described? 

Pray

Lord Jesus, forgive me for the ways in which I have failed to live by your Word. Help me to listen when you speak, and fill me with life anew, that I may become your faithful servant. Amen.
