“For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father.”
EPHESIANS 2:18 NKJV
Praise be to God for this beautiful day and for the gift of access to His presence.
Today’s scripture reminds us that it is only through Jesus Christ that we are brought near to the Father, and the Holy Spirit is the One who makes that access real in our lives. What was once impossible because of sin is now made possible through the cross of Christ.
Beloved, this means we no longer stand afar off, but we have the privilege of drawing near with boldness to the throne of grace (Hebrews 4:16). We can talk to our Heavenly Father at any time, not as strangers, but as children of His household.
Let us live daily with this awareness, walking in fellowship with God through the Spirit, and rejoicing in our place as His sons and daughters.
We need to answer this question individually. Am I taking full advantage of my access to the Father by spending time in prayer and fellowship with Him?
Heavenly Father, thank You for the gift of access to Your presence through Christ Jesus. Help me to draw near to You daily with faith and a sincere heart. May my life reflect the joy and confidence of belonging to You forever.
