Hebrews 10:19 (KJV)
Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus.
I was typing a message of consolation to a fellow believer on my cell phone.
Was just about finished when my two year old great grandson came running in, jumped on my lap, and proceeded to give me a big hug and kiss.
What happened next, I can't even explain! The pressure from his jump, bumped my phone. It caused the words "hahaha" to be added to my message, and then, to my alarm, the message got sent.
I gave my great grandson a hug, three kisses, gently took him off my lap, and prayed my email recipient would somehow understand as I apologized for what just happened.
The little fella meant no harm. It never occurred to him that he wouldn't be welcomed in my arms or that I wouldn't accept one of his precious hugs or kisses.
It made me think of Hebrews 10:19 -20.
Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus. By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
The wall of partition that separated sinful man from a Holy God was rent from top to bottom when Jesus died on Calvary's cross. Matthew 27:51
We now have been given access to the very throne of God, the
Holy Of Holies, made possible by the precious blood of Jesus Christ.
Praise God, we are welcome to come boldly anytime and all the time. No appointment necessary.
If we've ever hesitated to come to God thinking He may be angry or upset with us, too busy, or our prayers too insignificant, when we read Hebrews 10:19-20 we will see otherwise.
For when we come boldly to the throne of God we do not come on our own merit, we come through the precious blood and sacrifice of His dear son Jesus.
Positionally God already sees us seated together with Christ in heavenly places Ephesians 2:6
I like to think that the following poem “The Holy Of Holies” shows how happy God is when we boldly, through the precious blood of Jesus, enter into The Holy Of Holies.
The Holy Of Holies
For you I have waited
I'm so glad that you came
I see you have your Credentials
My Blood and My Name
Come, let's sit here together
In our Heavenly Place
I am here longing to hold you
Feel the warmth of your face
I created this Glory
With you on my mind
All the things you desire
In my presence you'll find
But head knowledge relationship
Just will not do
For I want you to know Me
To know how much I love you
The veil of the temple
When it rent in two
Was a picture of my flesh
Of what I came to do
I came to tear down walls
Thoughts that aren't true
Like the Holy of Holies
Is just for a few
The Holy of Holies
Is not just for some
The access is wide open
Whosoever may come
I want you to know
I love when you're near
And you don't have to leave
You're suppose to dwell here
God is never too busy, nor are our prayers and concerns too trivial for Him. He invites us to come, boldly to the throne of grace to find mercy and obtain grace in our time of need. Hebrews 4:16

Prayer: Father God, thank You that through the blood of Jesus we have access to boldly come into the Holy of Holies. What an awesome privilege that is, thank You so much! Amen.
