Hebrews 10:22 …let us draw near to God with a sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith brings….
The parallel structure of these verses appeals to me: let us draw near, let us hold unswervingly, let us consider how. These verses are an invitation, because of our belief in Christ, to persevere in our faith.
Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful.
These verses are an invitation, not a command. We are invited because of our faith in Christ to draw near, to hold unswervingly, to consider how. The conditions are set, but it’s up to us to act. If we do nothing, there will be no benefit to our faith.
Hebrews 10:24 And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds…
Lord, Daily You extend invitations to us—to deepen our faith, to be Your hands and feet, to live in joy and hope, to draw near, to hold unswervingly, to consider how. Thank You. Help us to look for those invitations and to act on them. Increase our faith as we glorify Your name. Amen.
Hebrews 10:25 …not giving up meeting together, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another….
Have a blessed day.
