Therefore, brethren, since we have confidence to enter the holy place by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way which He inaugurated for us through the veil, that is, His flesh,

 Confidence to enter the holy place:

           

Hebrews 10:19-20

19 Therefore, brethren, since we have confidence to enter the holy place by the blood of Jesus,

20 by a new and living way which He inaugurated for us through the veil, that is, His flesh,

 

            In the Old Testament, only the high priest once a year could enter the holy of holies, but only after the shedding of the blood of an animal. We can come boldly into the Holy of Holies any time we wish … by the shedding of the blood of Jesus one time for all eternity. We cannot enter in the flesh. It is a spiritual entrance into a spiritual place. The veil that separates us from it is our flesh. We, in the flesh, cannot enter into it. Jesus, through His flesh, entered it for us.

            The people who lived during the Old Testament times had no idea this was going to happen. It was unthinkable that just any person could enter into the presence of God. But that is just what we can and should do.

 

If you could hear God speak to you, I believe this is what He would say:

            "Come into My presence, My children. There is fullness of joy in My presence. There is peace forever there. There is no one here to harm you. You are safe in My presence. You are able to come boldly into My presence as not even Moses was able to do. You are always in My mind and always in My presence when you stay in My love. You are the ones that I desire to have with Me always. There is no other one than you that I desire. Come into My presence and experience My joy.”

 

            63. I have confidence to enter the holy place and come into the presence of God because of the death and resurrection of Jesus.
