A Present help... an Early help

When I read Psalm 46 for the something thousandth time in my life it struck a different chord. First God is my refuge and strength, a VERY PRESENT HELP, in trouble. Therefore I will not fear; even if the earth is removed and though the waters are raging about me. Why? He is our present help. Then look- There is a river. I pause. I praise God for the river. For he promised that his Spirit will be in me flowing like rivers of waters. There is a river, the streams, whereof, shall make glad the city of God. Yes! Yes, for there is joy in the Holy Spirit.

Drawing Near to God

Hebrews 10:19-22 ( clickable passage ) With the shedding of Jesus's blood upon the cross at calvary, the  temple veil was torn.

The high priest had to, first, offer sin offering for himself before he could offer the atonement sacrifice for the congreagation. But thanks be to God for the one sinless and blameless  high priest, who offered himself as a pure sacrifice, for the remission of sins of the entire human race. the book of Hebrews reiterates this sacrifice and the rewards that are a gift of grace, which are received of those who believe in the atoning work of Jesus's blood for them ( Hebrews 10:19). Verse 22 in the tenth chapter of Hebrew now urges the believer to take advantage of the access we have to the throne. We can enter boldly. How? By, or by way of, the blood of Jesus. 22
