He is compared to Moses, who was faithful in God's house; yet Jesus deserves greater honor because He is the Son over God's house, not merely a servant within it. Christians must not harden their hearts, like the Israelites who rebelled during their time in the wilderness. Due to their unbelief, they were unable to enter God's rest. The writer urges believers to encourage one another daily and to remain confident in their faith. Holding firmly to Christ until the end is evidence that they belong to Him. Faithfulness and obedience are essential for continuing in God's promises, and all who fail to hold fast to these principles will be subject to the wrath of God. Our walk with God requires constant attention and encouragement. We are not meant to follow Jesus alone. When doubt or discouragement creeps in, we need one another to speak truth and remind each other of God's faithfulness. Our hearts can easily grow hard if we stop listening to His voice. We must be careful not to let unbelief take root. Jesus is the glorious ruler over God's house, and we are His people if we stay committed and confident. Each day presents a chance to trust Him more. Let us lean into our faith, stay connected with our spiritual family, and encourage one another to remain faithful and obedient as we move toward the heavenly rest God has promised. Kind Father, thank You for sending Jesus to be our Apostle and High Priest. We acknowledge His authority, as He is worthy of all glory and honor. He is faithful as a Son over Your house, and we take great comfort in living within His dwelling. Please help us remain confident, soft-hearted, and filled with hope in all circumstances. Israel failed to trust You and missed out on Your promised rest. Learning from their mistakes, we pray for wisdom to support one another and to encourage each other to hold fast to Your assurances firmly until the end of time. Thought Questions: What did Jesus do that makes Him worthy of more honor and glory than even Moses? How do you give Him the honor He so richly deserves? Why did Israel have to drift along in the wilderness for forty years? How do you protect your heart from the hardness and faithlessness of Israel? Do God's people need each other to help against unbelief and poor choices? In what ways do you prioritize interaction with fellow believers?
In this Bible Story, we will learn about Peter's denial and Jesus' trial in front of the high priests and elders. Judas learns of Jesus' sentence and returns the silver he earned by betraying Jesus. This story is inspired by Luke 22:54-62; John 18:19-24; Mark 14:55-65 & Matthew 27:1-5. Go to BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year.Today's Bible verse is Luke 22:61 from the King James Version.Episode 210: After having Him beaten, Jesus was taken before Annas to be interrogated. After this, He was sent to Caiaphas, the ruling High Priest. Peter followed Him there but when people began to recognize who he was, he denied having ever known Jesus. Just then the rooster crowd and Jesus and Peter locked eyes. The Sanhedrin continued to interrogate Jesus until they found enough to charge Jesus of blasphemy. A charge punishable by death. When Judas heard what had happened he became consumed with regret. But instead of taking that regret to his Messiah, he took it to the grave as he ended his life.Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.

If you are interested in the Daily Bible Devotional, you can find it at the links below:Amazon - (paperback, hardcover, and Kindle)YouTube Video Introducing the ContentFeel free to reach out with any questions: emersonk78@me.comHebrews 2 Believers are encouraged to pay close attention to the message of salvation spoken by the Lord and confirmed by those who heard Him. They are cautioned against drifting away from the truth and neglecting such a great salvation. God testified to this message through signs, wonders, miracles, and the gifts of the Holy Spirit. The chapter explains that God did not subject the world to come to angels but to Jesus, who was made for a little while lower than the angels. Through His suffering and death, He brought many to glory. Jesus became a human to defeat the power of death and to assist those who are tempted. Because He suffered, He is able to sympathize with our struggles and offer help as our merciful and faithful High Priest. Eternal salvation from God through Christ is incredible and must not be taken for granted. We have this saving truth from Jesus Himself and have seen the evidence of God's power confirming it. We cannot afford to drift or become careless in our faith. Jesus became like us, experiencing pain, fear, and death so that He could truly help us. Because He understands our struggles, we do not face them alone. We are not just saved from sin; we are brought into a family where Jesus unashamedly calls us His brothers and sisters. Having been sanctified to God through Him, let us give our allegiance to our elder brother Jesus, who is always present to comfort, strengthen, and guide us. Benevolent God, thank You for sending Your Son to share in our humanity and walk among us. You did not leave us in our weakness but provided a Savior who knows our pain and understands our struggles. Because of His suffering and death, we are set free from fear and given hope that does not fade. When we feel uncertain or weary, remind us that You and Your Son are near and care deeply. Help us listen closely to Your Word and remain faithful to Your glorious Son. We trust in Jesus Christ, our faithful high priest and brother. Thought Questions: What makes the gospel of Jesus “so great a salvation” to you? Has it been proven, and what happens if you neglect it after so much testimony? Why did Jesus need to come to earth and suffer in the flesh for us? If He endured such to sanctify you, how should you be showing gratitude? If you are a child of God and Jesus is your brother, how does that affect your hope and confidence as you seek to live the rest of your life in faith?
The central theme of the Book of Hebrews is the supremacy of Jesus Christ over all Old Testament figures and systems, including the royal priesthood of Melchizedek. This book also warns the Hebrews against apostasy, remaining immature in their faith, and not growing as believers. Ultimately, Jesus is revealed as the founder and perfecter of our faith, the fulfillment of everything the Old Testament pointed toward. Speaker: Brad Bell
Back in the Old Testament days, stepping into God's presence was a big no-no for the people, as it was believed they would meet their end if they did. It was a privilege reserved solely for the High Priests. Today, Pastor JD shares an incredible message about how Jesus tore the veil that kept you from connecting with God!

Resting In the Promises (1) (audio) David Eells, 10/15/25 Today, I'd like to encourage you and remind you about the rest of God and to trust in His promises so we can see His salvation come to pass completely. We need the Lord to help us understand how deep and broad His precious promises of the Real Good News are, and what His power is to those who believe them. Jesus said, (Mat.9:29) According to your faith be it done unto you. And in (8:13) As thou hast believed, [so] be it done unto thee. It's important what we believe and know because faith is based on knowledge, and you can't believe for something that you don't know about. So we need to be familiar with the Word. The promises of God are for our salvation in personal (soul) salvation, healing (body) salvation, and also deliverance, protection, and provision. We know that all these promises are past tense. (1Pe.2:24) Who his own self bare our sins in his body upon the tree ... by whose stripes ye were healed. (Col.1:13) Who delivered us out of the power of darkness.... (Rom.6:18) And being made free from sin, ye became servants of righteousness. (22) But now being made free from sin and become servants to God... They are all past tense so that we can enter into His all-inclusive, New Testament rest. The rest mentioned in Hebrews speaks of ceasing from our own works through faith in His promises. We need to walk in that rest and in that peace so that we are not condemned by the devil, separated from the faith of God, separated from the things that God wants to do through us. All provision has been made in our New Testament Sabbath rest. Our sabbatismos, as it is called in Hebrews 4, means “a continual rest.” The Sabbath is no longer one day that we rest; we have to cease from our works and enter into His rest through faith every day. That's His promise. The Lord has been bringing individuals through their own personal wilderness so that they can learn how to live by faith. (Heb.10:38) But my righteous one shall live by faith: And if he shrink back, my soul hath no pleasure in him. (39) But we are not of them that shrink back unto perdition; but of them that have faith unto the saving of the soul. Now, your soul is your mind, will and emotions; it's your nature, your character. Jesus Christ is an example of a saved soul, and walking in His steps is something that He has provided for us to do. (1Jn.2:6) He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also to walk even as he walked. And we can see from His life that Jesus walked by faith, completely trusting the Father in everything. The Lord is using our time in the wilderness to work the same thing in us. We understand that we are living in the latter days, and Jeremiah said in (Jer.30:23) Behold, the tempest of the Lord, [even his] wrath, is gone forth, a sweeping tempest: it shall burst upon the head of the wicked. (24) the fierce anger of the Lord shall not return until he have executed, and till he have performed the intents of his heart: in the latter days ye shall understand it. And continuing in (31:1) At that time (still talking about the latter days), saith the Lord, will I be the God of all the families of Israel, and they shall be my people. Romans 11 tells us about all those who are grafted into the olive tree, which is called “all Israel” by faith. The Lord broke off the unbelieving Jews concerning the new Kingdom and He grafted in the Gentiles as the Church, and then He said, (Rom.11:26) And so all Israel shall be saved. “All the families of Israel” is a very large group of people around the world, not just natural Israel. (Jer.31:2) Thus saith the Lord, The people that were left of the sword found favor in the wilderness; even Israel, when I went to cause him to rest. The wilderness is a sparse place with very little worldly provision for man. There, the Israelites had to have their salvation, provision, and protection from God. He brought them to a perfect place to learn to trust in Him for His provision. He made this an opportunity for them where God, in His mercy, had to ultimately save them after they ran out of all their provision from Egypt (a type of the world) and there was no natural provision around them. So, when you believe these past tense promises from God, you automatically enter into a wilderness because there is no help from man. I have seen God's wonderful stored provision for His people headed to wilderness. God's already delivered you, healed you, provided for you, fed you, housed you, already protected you, and saved your soul. He's already done all these things; therefore, you can't do anything to bring them to pass. Since He's already done them, you just have to rest. (Heb.4:3) For we who have believed do enter into that rest even as he hath said, As I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest: although the works were finished from the foundation of the world. In other words, God is saying, “Why shouldn't you rest? The works are already finished!” The problem is that people don't walk by faith and the promises are quickly taken away from them. Here's one instance: (Heb.3:18) And to whom sware he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that were disobedient? (19) And we see that they were not able to enter in because of unbelief. So if you want to know where disobedience comes from, it comes from unbelief because when you believe the promises, you are at rest. You are at peace. You are trusting in God to bring it to pass and you are ceasing from your works. Now, your works of the flesh are disobedience and they're sin. Your works of the Law, which are of the Old Covenent, are sin in the New Covenant. So you see, unbelief brings disobedience, and the Greek word apeitheia means both “disobedience” and “unbelief.” It can be translated either way. How can that be? Let's read (Heb.4:11) Let us therefore give diligence to enter into that rest, that no man fall after the same example of disobedience (apeitheia or “unbelief”). (6) Seeing therefore it remaineth that some should enter thereinto, and they to whom the good tidings were before preached failed to enter in because of disobedience (apeitheia or “unbelief”). If you have unbelief, you will be disobedient and one reason is that you cannot cease from your own works when you don't believe God's already done it. You always want to help Him out, or you get your eyes on the world and your problems. When that happens, people fall victim to fear, doubt, discouragement, and all those things because of what they see with their physical eyes, rather than what they see in the Bible. If you walk by sight, you will not walk by faith. You'll be like Israel in the wilderness, who looked around and saw lack on every side. They didn't believe that God was able to meet their every need out there, and the devil agreed with them, so they became full of fear, discouragement, and disobedience, and they spoke against the Lord. You will do that too if you don't have faith. Let's read some of that story and look at a few points. (Num.21:4) And they journeyed from mount Hor by the way to the Red Sea, to compass the land of Edom: and the soul of the people was much discouraged because of the way. (5) And the people spake against God, and against Moses, Wherefore have ye brought us up out of Egypt to die in the wilderness? for there is no bread, and there is no water; and our soul loatheth this light (or “vile”) bread. They were speaking about the manna and calling it “this vile bread.” The bread of life is sweet to the taste but is bitter in the belly. In other words, the flesh does not like it because it demands your life, and that you give up your thinking and your ways. It demands submission. Well, these people were walking by sight, having their eyes on the problems around them, instead of on the promise, so they became discouraged and they spoke against the Lord. But God has already taken care of every problem that you could possibly have or imagine. It's all been covered by the blood. It's already been covered by the Lord on the cross. He's already taken it away; it's already solved as Jesus said in (Joh.19:30) It is finished. Jesus told His disciples in (16:33) Be of good cheer; I have overcome the world. If we keep our eyes on those promises, they bring us rest. If we get our eyes on the problem, we stumble and fall. When that happens, we go back to walking by sight and speaking against the Lord. Do you know what speaking against the Lord can be? It can be anything that is contrary to the Word, anything that is not confessing the good confession in the sight of many witnesses. (Rom.10:10) For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. Our salvation in every form comes not only by faith, but the works that come from that faith, and the biggest work that comes from faith is what we say. We have to learn to confess the Lord in the midst of the situations around us. The Lord brought the Israelites into the wilderness on purpose to try them, to see if they would walk by sight or by faith. Jesus tells us this, too. (Mat.10:32) Every one therefore who shall confess me before men, him will I also confess before my Father who is in heaven. (33) But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father who is in heaven. We believe His promises and they give us rest, and then what naturally comes out of our mouth is in agreement with the Word of God. And when you confess Him before men, He confesses you before the Father. The word “confess” here is the Greek homologeo, and it means “to speak the same as.” When we are in the tribulations of our wilderness experiences, we see our need, our lack, our sickness, and our sin; we see our problems, which as we have discovered the Lord has already taken care of. Are we going to agree with the Good News? “For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” It's very important that we're careful to confess faith in the promises. This brings the salvation that we're believing for. With our confession, we're “calling the things that are not as though they were.” It's very important that we confess Him before men, that we say before men what His Word says. (Heb.3:1) Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of a heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, [even] Jesus. Jesus is the “High Priest of our confession,” Who offers an offering before the Father and that offering is what we say; it's the words of our mouth. And if we speak the same as Jesus, then He confesses us before the Father and before the holy angels. (Luk.12:8) And I say unto you, Every one who shall confess me before men, him shall the Son of man also confess before the angels of God: (9) but he that denieth me in the presence of men shall be denied in the presence of the angels of God. I also like this verse: (Mat.12:36) And I say unto you, that every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment. Thank God that we come into days of judgment so that we don't have to come into the Day of Judgment! The Greek word translated as “idle” here means “unfruitful.” There are unfruitful words that don't give us any help in the day of judgment. (Mat.12:37) For by thy words thou shalt be justified (that means “accounted righteous”), and by thy words thou shalt be condemned. When you come into judgment you want to be justified, so that you come through and overcome it. (Rom 3:4) God forbid: yea, let God be found true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy words, And mightest prevail when thou comest into judgment. He tells us in order for that to happen, we have to confess Him before men. (Mat.15:18) But the things which proceed out of the mouth come forth out of the heart; and they defile the man. (19) For out of the heart come forth evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, railings: (20) these are the things which defile the man; but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not the man. When we think thoughts that are contrary to God, when we speak what we see, feel and hear, we're like the spies who went into the Promised Land and brought back a bad report. They reported what they saw, what they felt and what they heard, so they were condemned by God. They made the hearts of the people fearful and that made the people fall away (Numbers 13,14). The spies died in the wilderness because they brought a bad report and the rest died because they believed what they heard and not what God said. Our report, the good witness that we're supposed to give before men, has to be what “thus saith the Lord.” What did the Lord say about our circumstances and our situations? By your words you are going to be justified or accounted righteous, and by your words, you are going to be condemned. When these Israelites in the wilderness began to look at the problems around them and became discouraged because they didn't have their mind on the promise, they “spoke against the Lord.” (Num 14:28) … as ye have spoken in mine ears, so will I do to you. They spoke about what they saw, what they felt, what they heard, and what their fears told them would happen. They cried the whole time to go back to Egypt because they loved the fleshly rest of trusting in the world to supply their needs. God wanted them to rest in the promises in the wilderness, and He had to bring them through the wilderness to get them to the Promised Land of rest. We see here that the people, walking in flesh, “spake against the Lord,” and that's what comes from the disobedience caused by unbelief. They spoke against the Lord, saying that He was going to cause them to die in the wilderness and they spoke of how much they hated the bread, which brought a curse upon them. (Num.21:6) And the Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died. They said they hated the “light bread.” They hated the Lord! Did you know that if you don't love the bread of the Word, you don't love the Lord? Many people say they love the Lord, but what did the Lord Himself say? (Joh.14:15) If ye love me, ye will keep my commandments. If you love the Lord, you will love the Word. Now the “light bread” that they reviled was the manna, but what was the manna? (Exo.16:31) And the house of Israel called the name thereof Manna: and it was like coriander seed, white; and the taste of it was like wafers [made] with honey. Some Bible versions have a footnote that the word “manna” is actually the Hebrew word “man.” Wow! And Who is the Man? The Man is Jesus. (Joh.6:33) For the bread of God is that which cometh down out of heaven, and giveth life unto the world. (34) They said therefore unto him, Lord, evermore give us this bread. (35) Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall not hunger, and he that believeth on me shall never thirst. They hated the manna, which represented the Word of life. It represented He Who is the Word, Jesus Christ. They hated the Lord, but the Lord is these promises. (Joh.1:14) And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us (and we beheld his glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father), full of grace and truth. “The Word became flesh,” or to state it another way, the Word manifested in flesh. The Word became flesh in order for us to be like Him, bearing His fruit, because we also have to be the Word become flesh. God's plan is that He might reveal Himself through the body of Christ today, like He revealed Himself through the first body of Christ. The Israelites in the wilderness hated the Lord because they had their eyes on the problems instead of the promises, and they became discouraged. They hadn't entered into the rest. They hadn't ceased from their works and so they were under the curse. (Num.21:6) And the Lord sent fiery serpents among the people, and they bit the people; and much people of Israel died. (7) And the people came to Moses, and said, We have sinned, because we have spoken against the Lord, and against thee; pray unto the Lord, that he take away the serpents from us. And Moses prayed for the people. They sinned because they spoke against the Lord. Do you know it's overwhelmingly common for God's people to speak against Him? That's because their tongue is connected to their physical sight and their physical hearing. It's also common that God's people live under the curse, but the Lord did not ordain us to live under the curse. He ordained us to live above the curse. God told Joshua (Jos.1:8) This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth, but thou shalt meditate thereon day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: (Notice: You will be able to do what is written if you speak in agreement with the Word.) for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous (Hebrew: “to push forward”; this has nothing to do with the worldly “prosperity” doctrine.), and then thou shalt have good success (Notice: Christian success comes from speaking and acting in agreement with the Word.). To state it another way, when we speak in agreement with the Word, although not necessarily quoting the Word, “then thou shalt make thy way prosperous.” This is how we “prosper” in going to the Promised Land and what else did He say? “That thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein.” You see, faith makes us obedient; unbelief makes us disobedient. If we never cease from our works, then we will never enter into the rest. That's what the Lord exhorted in (Heb.3:11) As I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest. Why? (12) Take heed, brethren, lest haply there shall be in any one of you an evil heart of unbelief, in falling away from the living God. They couldn't enter into the rest because they had “an evil heart of unbelief” that made them speak against the Lord. When they realized this was sin, they asked Moses to pray for them and Moses prayed for the people. (Num.21:8) And the Lord said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a standard: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he seeth it, shall live. What does the serpent represent? We came out of this world and into the Kingdom of God, into what is called “the body of Christ.” So what body were we a part of before we came to the body of Christ? The body of antichrist. Anti means against. Jesus said, (Mat.12:30) He that is not with me is against me.... He talked to the Pharisees and said, (Joh.8:44) Ye are of [your] father the devil.... They were members of the body of the devil, which is antichrist! And we used to be in the devil's body, too. We were created to be in his image but we were actually full of the poison of the serpent. We had that poison in our heads, just like the serpent does. Remember what Revelation says. (Rev.12:9) And the great dragon was cast down, the old serpent, he that is called the Devil and Satan, the deceiver of the whole world.... And yet the Lord called us to be a part of His body. The Bible says that Jesus became like that serpent on the pole. (Joh.3:14) And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up. From now on, when we look at Jesus upon the cross, we can see our curse put there upon Him. We can see our sin and our sickness put upon Him. We can see our lack and whatever our problem is put there upon Him because of this. (Gal.3:13) Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law.... “Redeemed” is the Greek word exagorazo, and it means “to buy out or to purchase a slave with a mind to set him free.” Christ bought us. He delivered us from the bondage of slavery to sin, the devil and the curse. The “curse of the law” is all of the evil things that came upon mankind for disobeying God's Law (Deuteronomy 28). (Gal.3:13) Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us.... Jesus became the curse! We know that the devil administers the curse and he's been given that authority by God to do it so that people would be humbled, repent and turn to Him. (13) Christ… having become a curse for us; for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree (Now we see that Jesus became cursed on that cross; He became like the serpent, like us.): (14) that upon the Gentiles might come the blessing of Abraham in Christ Jesus; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. The Bible says that Abraham was blessed in all things. (16) Now to Abraham were the promises spoken, and to his seed. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ. God made all these promises to Christ. He made all these promises to just one seed and now we must abide in Him. And we abide in Him by accepting the same promises, by speaking the same promises, by walking in faith in the same promises. And we receive the benefit of Abraham because Jesus became cursed for us. God put our curse, the whole curse that's partially enumerated in Deuteronomy 28, upon Jesus. No matter what problem you have, you should be able to see this problem upon Jesus. (Num.21:8) And the Lord said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a standard: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he seeth it, shall live. We were snake-bit and Jesus took the venom. I'd like to point out something else: (2Co.5:21) Him who knew no sin he made [to be] sin (Jesus became the curse and He became the sin.) on our behalf; that we might become the righteousness of God in him. Do you have a problem with sin? Do you have a problem with the curse that comes from sin? We see the serpent on the cross and that the Lord has put all of this upon Jesus. Now we confess what the Bible says: (2Co.5:17) Wherefore if any man is in Christ, [he is] a new creature: the old things are passed away; behold, they are become new. All of that curse and sin has completely passed away. We are new creatures by faith in this. When you look at the serpent on the pole, you're supposed to see your curse, your sin, upon Him. The curse is very broad. If you read Deuteronomy 28, you'll find it's all sickness, it's all lack, it's all bondage to your enemies, etc. We're speaking against God if we're not speaking in agreement with His promises. We must repent. We must “change our mind,” which is what “repent” means. We are new creatures in Christ. Christ has been raised up on the pole for our salvation and we are to get our eyes upon Him because Moses said, (Num.21:8) ... every one that is bitten, when he seeth it, shall live. (9) And Moses made a serpent of brass, and set it upon the standard: and it came to pass, that if a serpent had bitten any man, when he looked unto the serpent of brass, he lived. So when the Israelites got their eyes on the Son, which in this case is represented by the serpent, and on what the Son had accomplished, they were healed. Many years ago, I had a vision in which I saw myself walking to a stream and when I got into the stream, I received a revelation that as long as I lay on my back and looked at the sun, I could stay floating up the stream. As I meditated on that, the Lord gave me the understanding that this stream represents the Word of God. God told Moses, (Deu.11:26) Behold I set before you this day a blessing and a curse. He was talking about His commandments because they represent both a blessing and a curse. They represent the blessing of God's Good News, and they represent the curse of death to those who disobey it. So I realized that the water represented the Word of God (Eph.5:26) having cleansed [the church] by the washing of water with the word, and that it could either kill me or give me life. I could go upstream, contrary to nature, if I kept my eyes on the sun and I would always stay afloat; in other words, I would always stay above the curse. Water will kill you if you go beneath it, but if you stay on top, it's a blessing like Noah in the ark. We have to keep our eyes on the Son in order to stay above the curse that's upon this world because He's the One Who promised and He's the One Who bore the curse. We should be able to see our curse upon Him. If you can see your problem having been put on Jesus, you can be free of it; that's His method. It's very, very simple. If you get double minded you sink into the curse like Peter when he walked on water. That's what faith is all about; faith is believing that you have already received on account of the promises that God has already given. Continuing with my dream, as I was lying on my back with my face to the sun, I was floating upstream, contrary to nature and to the laws of this world. If you keep your eyes on the Son, it's supernatural. It's above the laws of this world. The supernatural takes precedence over the laws of this world. For instance, healing comes to people who believe that they have received it, but healing comes very hard to people who are always seeking it. It works the same way for deliverance from sins and all of the curse. (Mar.11:24) All things whatsoever ye pray and ask for, believe that ye received them, and ye shall have them. That's very simple and an awesome benefit that the Lord has given to us. So I'm floating upstream and I looked around me and saw there were a few others who were doing the same thing. As we floated away, I noticed that there were people on the left side of the stream who floated up under a tent that was stretched over about half the stream. Whenever any of these people who were floating with me went under the tent and the shadow fell upon them, they sank to the bottom of the stream, for they lost sight of the Son and His salvation. I quickly got out onto the bank and cut the ropes holding the tent up. It fell into the water and the water carried it away. Then I made these floats to float the people up off the bottom. As soon as they saw the sun again, they started floating once more. I realized that the tent represented man's religion. The religions of man like to take credit for what God has already done. They like to tell men, “God does not do it that way anymore.” They have their fleshly ideas and their way of leading people is, “Let's go back to Egypt and do it the way of the world. Let's have God's salvation through man's provision. Let's go back by the fleshpots.” They don't teach people to walk by faith with their eyes on the Son, but they bring them into darkness. They block the light of the Son and the people sink. They're under the curse and think it's normal to live that way because everybody around them lives that way. God did not ordain us to do that. If we keep our eyes on the Son, we will stay above the curse; that's what the Lord revealed to me about this. Also it was those on the “left” that fell away. Jesus put the goats on the left. Many “Christians” are self-willed and rebellious like goats and must be taught better. Another revelation I want to share … Resting in Jesus to Do the Work Missy Pollock - 04/11/2012 (David's notes in red) A couple was ministering to me concerning something I've been going through for about four years. The husband said he sensed in his spirit that soon things would come to light. Then, that same night, the Lord gave me the following dream to encourage me and build my faith. I believe that this dream can be encouraging and faith-building for other members of the body of Christ. In the dream, my husband (representing Jesus) was driving to work and I was with Him (the Lord doesn't do anything without me; He needs my cooperation). (Missy here represents the bride of Jesus, who is learning to let Him lead and do the work.) There was a car (representing circumstances and situations in my environment, or in my life) in front of us with a baseball glove attached to it by about 6 feet of string (my flesh) on the back bumper. (Getting ahead of the Lord's works.) My husband (Jesus) said that the baseball glove (the hand of God) was His. I said, “No, that's not your glove” (not recognizing God's hand in things). Then there was another car in front of us with a string attached to it with a baseball glove on a power line (Doing our work by)(the power of God's kingdom) and the car eventually pulled the string tight to the point that it came off and the glove stayed on the power line (God is using the circumstances in my life to cause me to let go and let God). This same thing happened again (the process of transforming me into His image through dying to self and taking up my cross and following Him) with another car and ball glove attached. The next time it happened, when the string was pulled tight, it wasn't a glove but a bird attached to the string, and it flew away and landed in a tree. (I am the bird in the Spirit, in resurrection, one with the Lord, free from the flesh [the string], resting in the tree from the works of the flesh. Amen. Hallelujah! Praise the Lord!) (Also, a bird can represent God's Spirit who enables His works with gifts.) Then my husband was driving fast (doing a quick work in my life) and I asked Him to slow down (a quick work is hard on the flesh. Amen; it's dying! (1Pe.4:1) ... for he that hath suffered in the flesh hath ceased from sin). He made a comment that the road was a dirt road (an earthly, temporary journey: (2Co.4:18) While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.) and I said, “No, it wasn't.” My husband made a turn without even looking and a car almost hit us (Psalm 91). I said to him, “That car almost hit us.” My husband was annoyed with all my comments (because I wasn't trusting in Him). At some point, I saw that the road really was a dirt road and there were a lot of curves in the road (finally seeing that it was just a temporary (earthly) journey). My husband made another reckless turn. (This is just the perception of my carnal man. I need to make sure I set my mind on the things that are above and not on the things that are on the earth.) These are the verses the Lord gave me to go with the dream: (1Ki.12:33) And he went up unto the altar which he had made in Bethel on the fifteenth (rest) day in the eighth (the number of circumcision, the cutting off of sowing flesh) month, even in the month which he devised of his own heart: and he ordained a feast for the children of Israel and went up unto the altar, to burn incense. (Serving God our own way in the flesh. The wife gave the meaning of the numbers. She said, “Step away from the matter now; it's in God's hands. Rest in all that God has shown you. The end of the matter is at hand. Be patient in spirit!”) Also (Joe.3:17) So shall ye know that I am Jehovah your god, dwelling in Zion my holy mountain: then shall Jerusalem be holy, and there shall no strangers pass through her any more. We start out serving God in the flesh, but learn to rest through all the trials and tribulations He takes us through. Eventually, there are no strangers (man in the flesh) in God's Kingdom and His bride. (Ecc.3:14) I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor anything taken from it; and God hath done it, that men should fear before him. Amen.

Real Spiritual Warfare – Satanic High Priest VS Pastor of Jesus Christ
In Hebrews 5, the author points us to the story of Jesus in the Garden of Gethsemane. There, we see the suffering Savior of the world crying out to the Father. Jesus felt abandoned, overwhelmed, and too weak to carry life's burdens. In the middle of emotional and physical pain, He still chose to obey. His obedience gives us inspiration to choose obedience when we face our own suffering, and hope that it is not in vain. This passage is an excellent reminder that with Jesus as our perfect High Priest, our suffering will not have the last word. Key Verses: Hebrews 5:7-10

Yom Kippur, “The Day of Atonement” is the holiest day in the Jewish calendar. It brings to a conclusion a 10 day period of self-examination and reflection. Because Yom Kippur is a day of judgment during these 10 days, individuals seek to make restitution for their misdeeds and repentance of their sins.Rosh Hashanah begins on the 1st day of the Jewish month of Tishrei, while Yom Kippur occurs on the 10th day of the same month. The ten days between Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur are called “Yomim Noraim” (“Ten Awesome Days”), or “Aseret Yemei Teshuva” (“Ten Days of Repentance”). According to Jewish tradition, during these “Ten Days,” God has opened before Him three books. The Book of the Righteous, in which all the names of the righteous are written; on Yom Kippur, all will have their names inscribed in the Book of Life for a good year; The Book of the Wicked, in which all the names of the wicked are written, and on Yom Kippur will be consigned for a bad year; The Book of the Average, in which the names of those not wholly righteous nor wholly wicked are written. During these “Ten Days,” those whose names are written in the Book of the Average have the opportunity to have their names written in the Book of Life on Yom Kippur, provided they perform the necessary “good deeds.” Thus, the common greeting during this season is, “L'Shana Tova Tikatevu,” “May You be Inscribed for a Good Year.”What the Law of Moses teaches about Yom Kippur is very different. There are three major passages that speak of Yom Kippur: Leviticus 23:26-32, Numbers 29:7-11, and the most important portion of Scripture on Yom Kippur, Leviticus 16:1-34. Much more could be said about Yom Kippur, but the following is clearly taught:1. There aren't many paths to God. There is only one way, and that way is by a blood atonement. During the period of the Mosaic Law, it was by means of the Yom Kippur sacrifice. Today, it is through the blood of Messiah Yeshua.2. Leviticus 17:11, “For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood that makes atonement because of life.”3. There is a need for a mediator between God and the people. Under the Mosaic Law, that mediator was the High Priest. Today, our mediator is Messiah Yeshua.4. The offering of sacrifices indicates there is the necessity for a substitute. Today, our substitution atoning sacrifice is provided by Messiah Yeshua. This is precisely what Isaiah the prophet taught in Isaiah chapter 53; “We all like sheep have gone astray, but the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all” (Isaiah 53:6).YouTube: https://youtube.com/live/LYwA877ZGIUSend us a text

Are you trying to earn God's acceptance? Pastor Mike Fabarez explains why Jesus is the only High Priest who could sit down after his sacrifice. Old Testament priests stood because their work was never finished, but Christ declared "It is finished!"
Sermon Summary — Zechariah: Session 3 Text: Zechariah 3–4 Theme: “Not by Might, Nor by Power, but by My Spirit” Speaker: Pastor Matthew Robbins (LWWC) 1. Opening and Ministry Update Pastor opened with thanksgiving: in just six days, 32 new nations began listening to the church's broadcast — evidence that God's Word is reaching the world. Prayer emphasized the importance of being “found in the Word, following the Word, and structuring our lives around the Word.” Transitioned into Zechariah 3, explaining the historical background: The people of Israel had returned from Babylonian exile. The prophets Haggai, Zechariah, and Nehemiah encouraged them to rebuild the temple and walls of Jerusalem. 2. The Ark and God's Faithfulness Pastor recalled the history of the Ark of the Covenant, which never changed — from Moses to David to Solomon — symbolizing God's unchanging nature. He shared conviction from the Holy Spirit: the original Ark still exists and will one day reappear when Israel rebuilds the temple. Israel has reportedly reconstructed priestly garments and temple furnishings, preparing for restoration. Key lesson: God never changes; His covenant stands forever. When the Ark reappears, it will be a global sign of God's faithfulness and sovereignty. 3. Joshua the High Priest and Filthy Garments (Zechariah 3) Vision: Joshua the high priest stands before the angel of the Lord while Satan accuses him. Joshua is clothed in filthy garments, symbolizing human sin and unworthiness — even a priest cannot stand clean before God on his own. God rebukes Satan and commands that Joshua's filthy garments be removed and replaced with rich robes and a clean turban marked “Holiness to the Lord.” Meaning: God removes iniquity and clothes His people with righteousness. Salvation is not self-earned — “We can't clean ourselves; the Lord must do it.” Application: Many people say, “I'll fix myself before I come to God.” Pastor rebuked this thinking: “You don't clean up to come to Jesus — you come to Jesus to be cleaned up.” 4. The Branch — Jesus Revealed The angel declares: “I am bringing forth My servant, the Branch.” This is a prophecy of the Messiah, Jesus Christ, who removes iniquity “in one day.” That “one day” refers both to: Israel's restoration (1948 — national prophecy fulfilled in a day). Christ's crucifixion, where sin was forgiven once for all. Through Christ, believers are clothed in righteousness — the Old Testament points directly to Jesus. 5. The Vision of the Lampstand and Olive Trees (Zechariah 4) Zechariah sees a golden lampstand (menorah) with seven lamps and two olive trees beside it. The angel explains: “This is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel: Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit.” Zerubbabel, a descendant of David, was leading the rebuilding of the temple. Meaning: Human effort cannot accomplish God's work — it is only through the Holy Spirit. “Some trust in chariots and horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord.” 6. Watchman Nee and the Broken Vessel Pastor shared insights from Watchman Nee's “The Release of the Spirit.” The alabaster box story illustrates that the value is not the vessel, but what's inside. The Holy Spirit must be released through a broken life. Our cleverness or intellect can block the Spirit's flow — we must depend fully on God's Word and Spirit. True ministry touches the spirit, not merely the emotions or intellect. Key quote: “If I only tell stories but don't use the Word of God, I'm touching your soul, not your spirit.” 7. The Capstone and the Mountain God tells Zerubbabel: “Who are you, O great mountain? Before Zerubbabel you shall become a plain.” Symbolic of God leveling obstacles through grace and power. “He shall bring forth the capstone with shouts of ‘Grace, grace!'” The capstone (or chief cornerstone) represents Christ, the head and completion of all things. Pastor drew connections to Egypt's pyramids and ancient symbolism, explaining how the “capstone” points to unity under Christ — “the head of the body.” 8. The Two Olive Trees — Moses and Elijah The two olive trees represent the two anointed ones who “stand beside the Lord.” Pastor identified them as Moses and Elijah — symbols of the Law and the Prophets. These two appear repeatedly: On the Mount of Transfiguration (Matthew 17). As the two witnesses in Revelation 11, prophesying during the tribulation. Moses' body was divinely preserved; Elijah was taken up without dying — both return to testify of Christ's glory. Their ministries align perfectly with Revelation's description: Elijah shuts up the heavens (no rain). Moses turns water to blood and releases plagues. 9. The Word Deposited in Us Pastor closed with a powerful exhortation: Reading and hearing Scripture is like making spiritual deposits. The Holy Spirit later draws from what you've stored. “The Holy Spirit goes to your bank account — make sure there's something in it.” God's Word feeds the spirit, not just the mind. “You don't have to retain everything — just keep putting it in. The Holy Spirit will bring it out when it's needed.” 10. Final Exhortation God's Word must govern us — not the other way around. Pastor concluded with this charge: “Don't come to the Bible trying to make it fit you. Come to it and fit yourself to it.” Closing prayer asked that the Word of God come alive, ignite prayer, and make believers a light in their generation. Key Themes God's unchanging faithfulness (the Ark). Cleansing through Christ alone. Ministry through the Spirit, not human might. The prophetic unity of the Law and the Prophets fulfilled in Jesus. Living by the Word — daily deposits of truth.
We've completed 7 chapters of Leviticus — and I'm blown away.The book makes one thing abundantly clear: Israel will sin. Even when they don't mean to.And honestly… so will we.That means the priests were always busy — constantly offering sacrifices for guilt, for sin, for cleansing.But then I read this:“If the entire Israelite community sins by violating one of the Lord's commands, but the people don't realize it, they are still guilty.”— Leviticus 4:13“Through this process, the priest will purify the people, making them right with the Lord, and they will be forgiven.”— Leviticus 4:20And it hit me — that's why Jesus had to come.That's why He is our forever High Priest.Because without Him standing in that role — without His perfect, once-for-all sacrifice — we could never be made right with God.Leviticus shows us what Jesus fulfills completely.We still sin, even unintentionally.But grace still covers, completely.

In this moving Erev Yom Kippur sermon, Rabbi Debbie Stiel invites us to imagine the close of Yom Kippur as a moment of release, renewal, and “At-One-Ment.” Drawing on Torah, Talmud, and timeless wisdom, she explores repentance as both a solitary and communal journey—one that transforms our mistakes into the foundation for growth. Through stories of Moses, the High Priest, and our own human frailty, Rabbi Stiel reminds us that grace, forgiveness, and self-reflection open the path toward wholeness and a brighter new year.
Joe continues our series in Hebrews, exploring chapter 8, where we discover the transformative power of the New Covenant. Jesus, our High Priest, offers a personal and direct relationship with God, fulfilling His promises and freeing us from the old ways.
In week 4 of our Hebrews series, Pastor Mike shows that Jesus is our Great High Priest who fully sympathizes with our weakness. He knows hunger, thirst, betrayal, rejection, grief, and temptation—yet without sin. Because of this, we can confidently approach the throne of grace for mercy and help in our time of need. Pastor Mike walks us through the role of the high priest and the temple—from the altar and laver to the showbread, lampstand, and incense—culminating in the torn veil and the mercy seat. Jesus is the Gate, the Lamb of God, the Bread of Life, the Light of the World, and our Intercessor who declares, “It is finished.” His perfect sacrifice ends the old system and gives us full access to God. Now we are called priests who study the Word, share the good news, and keep our temples holy. ____ Partner with New Tribe: Give | https://newtribe.church/give/ ____ Connect with New Tribe: Website | https://newtribe.church/comeexperience/ Instagram | https://www.instagram.com/newtribechurch Facebook | https://www.facebook.com/newtribechurch YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/newtribechurch

At the end of the day, it doesn't matter if it's Christian Deconstruction, or Christian Introduction, or Christian self-destruction, or Christian self-deception—The question at the heart of it all is always the same: Who is Jesus Christ?... Who is Jesus Christ and what has He done?

Daily Dose of Hope September 24, 2025 Scripture – Luke 23 Prayer: Lord Jesus, We come before you this morning, thanking you for a new day. Lord, you are good and we rejoice in your holy and powerful name. As we begin our day, Lord, help us focus on you. Help us set aside our scattered thoughts and focus on your Word and what you want us to learn today. We get so distracted and self-consumed. Forgive us for that, Lord. In these next few moments of silence, help us have laser focus on your voice... In Your Powerful Name, Amen. Welcome back to the Daily Dose of Hope, the devotional/podcast that complements the New Hope Church daily Bible reading plan. We are currently working our way through a deep dive into the Gospels and Acts. Today, we are deep diving into Luke 23. Today, we start with Jesus before Pilate and Herod. Both Roman men believe that Jesus is innocent. Pilate actually tries to get the people to release Jesus, but the crowd is stirred up. They want blood. Jesus' innocence is not the point to them. They are looking for a way to get rid of this trouble-maker. And these men are not willing to stand up for what's right. There was a man named Simon from Cyrene who was passing by and they forced him to carry the cross. Cyrene was on the tip of Africa so this man was far from home! And here he was, just going about his business, and he is enlisted, or more like seized, to carry the cross of the Savior of the world. I'm guessing that Jesus' physical body was incredibly weak and bloody by this point. And Simon walked by him, carrying the cross that would serve to execute Jesus but also save all humanity from their sin. We don't know what happened to Simon after the crucifixion. He isn't mentioned again in Scripture. But my guess is that his life was never the same again. An encounter with Jesus is always life-changing. The text in which Jesus dies on the cross is called the Good Friday scripture. It may seem odd that we would call the day that Jesus was crucified and died “good.” Apparently, the term came into common use in the 1200s because for us, it was a truly good day, as Jesus became the final sacrifice for all sin for all people for all time. As the full expression of God's love for us, Jesus voluntarily gave his life so that we could be reconciled to holy God. It is very much good. There is a lot to be said about the crucifixion but I wanted to highlight something in particular. Right before Jesus breathed his last breath on the cross, the curtain in the Temple was torn down the middle. This is the curtain that separated the Holy Place from the Most Holy Place (the Holiest of Holies) where the ark of the covenant was kept and the presence of God remained. When the curtain tore, it was a sign that the New Covenant was instituted. Because of Jesus' sacrifice (the final sacrifice for sin), those who believe in him can now go directly to the throne of God's grace. When holy God looks at us, he doesn't see our sinfulness but the blood of Christ. Thus, there are no more barriers that can separate us from God. I'd like to close today with a prayer that is an adaptation of Hebrews 10:19-25: Thank you, Lord, that we can boldly enter heaven's Most Holy Place because of the blood of Jesus. By his death, Jesus opened a new and life-giving way through the curtain into the Most Holy Place. And since we have a great High Priest who rules over God's house, let us go right into the presence of God with sincere hearts fully trusting him. For our guilty consciences have been sprinkled with Christ's blood to make us clean, and our bodies have been washed with pure water. Lord, help us hold tightly without wavering to the hope we affirm, for God can be trusted to keep his promise. Let us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good works. And let us not neglect our meeting together, as some people do, but encourage one another, especially now that the day of his return is drawing near. Amen. Blessings, Pastor Vicki
Discover how Ezra's story speaks into our lives today. In this episode, we'll see how God provides everything we need in Christ, why we're called to live as His temple, and how to stand firm when opposition comes our way.Themes of this podcast: God provides everything needed for relationship. In Ezra 3, the people required a king, a high priest, and an altar to restore their relationship with God. Today, we find all three fulfilled in Jesus Christ. He is our eternal King, High Priest, and once-for-all sacrifice. This theme reminds us that we don't have to strive for complicated requirements. Our relationship with God rests securely in Him alone.Our lives are living temples. The rebuilding of the altar and Temple was central to Israel's restoration. For Christians today, Paul teaches that we are God's Temple. Just as Israel carefully laid the foundation for worship, we are called to build and maintain strong spiritual foundations in our own lives through prayer, Scripture, and faithful community.Expect and overcome opposition. Ezra's story shows that doing God's work is never free from opposition. The exiles faced delays, lies, and political roadblocks. In our modern world, opposition often comes through distractions, discouragement, or cultural pressures. We can learn to recognize lies, reject compromise, and remain steadfast in Christ.Show notes:BlogFeasts and FestivalsLeviticus Offerings Chart Map of Mount Moriah and the templeVideo tour of the Temple Mount and the dome of the Rock exterior on Mount MoriahVideo of the inside of the Dome of the RockPicture of the Rock inside the domeWe love feedback, but can't reply without your email address.
