Hebrews 13 - Praying God's Word


Please read Hebrews 13.
Meditate on verse 18.

Pray for us, for we are sure that we have a good conscience,
desiring to conduct ourselves honorably in all things.

God wrote this letter called Hebrews to prove Jesus is superior to angels, superior to the Law of Moses, superior to earthly priests, and superior to the sacrificial system. He is superior because He is God, your Great High Priest, and your perfect sacrifice.
Every human must consider Jesus, and no one will escape the fiery judgment should they choose to refuse Christ and neglect the so great a salvation found only in Him. The only way to please God is by faith, believing Him and His promises. Laying aside your sin and fixing your eyes on Jesus will prove your life of faith in Christ.
Because Jesus did everything to cleanse you from sin and an evil conscience, it only makes sense to desire to conduct yourself honorably in all things. The Writer urges you to pay attention to this Word of exhortation (Hebrews 13:22).
Pray the prayer that the scribe of Hebrews prayed over the readers (Hebrews 13:20-21). Pray it over those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).
 “Now God of peace, who brought up from the dead
the great Shepherd of the sheep,

through the blood of the eternal covenant,
Jesus our LORD,

equip __________ in every good thing to do Your will,
working in them that which is pleasing in Your sight,
through Jesus Christ, to whom be the
glory forever and ever.
Amen~”
