Part 6

Hebrews 4:14-16

14 Seeing then that we have a great high priest, that is passed into the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our profession.
15 For we have not an high priest which cannot be touched with the feeling of our infirmities; but was in all points tempted like as we are, yet without sin.
16 Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

“Prayer, perhaps more than any other religious activity, is frequently considered a passive activity, recondite, even capricious. Jesus’ teaching about prayer is direct and definite, simple, and inviting. Prayer is not a mysterious burden but an inter-relational adventure with God, with Jesus as one’s example and companion.”
