Day 311, November 7 - Hebrews 5

7 When Jesus was on the earth, a man of flesh and blood, He offered up prayers and pleas, groans and tears to the One who could save Him from death. He was heard because He approached God with reverence. 8 Although He was a Son, Jesus learned obedience through the things He suffered. 9 And once He was perfected through that suffering He became the way of eternal salvation for all those who hear and follow Him, 10 for God appointed Him to be a High Priest in the order of Melchizedek.

11 So let us move forward to enter this rest, so that none of us fall into the kind of faithless disobedience that prevented them from entering. 12 The word of God, you see, is alive and moving; sharper than a double-edged sword; piercing the divide between soul and spirit, joints and marrow; able to judge the thoughts and will of the heart.

12 Brothers and sisters, pay close attention so you won’t develop an evil and unbelieving heart that causes you to abandon the living God. 13 Encourage each other every day—for as long as we can still say “today”—so none of you let the deceitfulness of sin harden your hearts. 14 For we have become partners with the Anointed One—if we can just hold on to our confidence until the end.

Day 308, November 4 - Hebrews 2

Click here for today's reading


5 For it was not to angels that God subjected the world to come, of which we are speaking.
6 It has been testified somewhere,
“What is man, that you are mindful of him, or the son of man, that you care for him?
7 You made him for a little while lower than the angels; you have crowned him with glory and honor,
8 putting everything in subjection under his feet.” Now in putting everything in subjection to him, he left nothing outside his control. At present, we do not yet see everything in subjection to him.
9 But we see him who for a little while was made lower than the angels, namely Jesus, crowned with glory and honor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.
10 For it was fitting that he, for whom and by whom all things exist, in bringing many sons to glory, should make the founder of their salvation perfect through suffering.

5 I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,

3 Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord,
      the fruit of the womb a reward.
4 Like arrows in the hand of a warrior
      are the children of one's youth.

I need this reminder! (not that my 14 year old is making a little crazy!)

8 But to the Son He said,
     God, Your throne is eternal;
      You will rule Your kingdom with the scepter of justice.
9 You have loved what is right
      and hated what is evil;
      That is why God, Your God, has anointed You
        with the oil of gladness and lifted You above Your companions.
(The Voice)
Quoted from Psalm 45:6-7

There are many days I need to be anointed with the oil of gladness.
