MGD: An Open Way to the Father

And since we have a great high priest who rules

over God's house, let us go right into the presence

of God with sincere hearts, fully trusting Him. Shalom beloved,

you are warmly welcome to Radio ACI today for our

morning glory devotion. An open way to the Father was

written by Pastor and Mrs. Amo of Harvest Chapel International, Kumasi.

Let us share a word of prayer. Father, we thank

you for your word today. We ask, O God, that

you grant us grace to be doers of your word.

In Jesus' mighty name. Amen. Let us kindly take our

confession from Joshua 1, verse 8. Joshua 1, verse 8.

Joshua 1:8 Joshua 1:8

This book of the Lord shall not depart out of

my mouth, but I shall meditate in it day and night,

that I may observe to do according to all that

is written in it. For then I will make my

way prosperous, and then I will have good success. Amen.

An Open Way to the Father An Open Way to

the Father A script written by Pastor Emesis Amoapia. Our

scripture readings are from Hebrews chapter 10 verse 19 through

Hebrews 10:19

to 22. Hebrews chapter 10 verse 19 to 22. And

Hebrews 10:19–22

I'll be reading from the New Living Translation. And so,

dear brothers and sisters, we can boldly enter heaven's most

holy place because of the blood of Jesus. By his death,

Jesus opened a new and life-giving way through the curtain

into the most holy place. And since we have a

great high priest who rules over God's house, let us

go right into the presence of God with sincere hearts

fully trusting Him. For our guilty consciences have been sprinkled

with Christ's blood to make us clean, and our bodies

have been washed with pure water. May the Lord add

his blessing to the reading and hearing of his word.

Thanks be to God. An open way to the Father

For centuries, any worshipper could only go so far Between

a holy God and fallen humanity hung a thick, heavy veil.

To walk past that curtain into the most holy place

was unthinkable. A single step taken in presumption meant death.

The message was clear. God is holy. We are stained

by sin. And the door is closed. Then came the

cross of Calvary. When Jesus took his final breath, that

great curtain tore right from the top to the bottom

by the hand of Almighty God. Think of what that

means for your tired soul today. You do not need

an elderly mediator. You do not have to clean up

your record before you dare to speak to God. Because

the body of Jesus was broken for you, the door

to the Father's presence stands wide open. So what are

we to do with this outstanding gift? The first is

that we must draw near. Do not linger far off

in guilt or fear. When burdens press down on you,

carry them straight into the presence of God in prayer.

Speak to him honestly. Pour out your grief, your failures

and your hopes. He welcomes you with open arms. Also,

hold fast to your confession without wavering. The world around

us is noisy and unstable, constantly pulling our affections towards

shallow comforts and half-truths. Cling tightly to the faithful promises

of God. Feed on His word daily so your heart

remains anchored. And finally, do not try to walk this

road by yourself. The writer urges us not to neglect

gathering together. An ember pulled away from the heat soon

grows gold. But kept together, the fire burns bright. When

you gather with your brothers and sisters in the faith,

you find strength to stand. When your hands hang down,

someone is there to lift them up. Run through that

open door today. Draw near to your Father. Hold fast

to His truth and lean on the family He has

given you. Amen. Let us take our memory verse for

today from Hebrews chapter 10 verse 22. Hebrews chapter 10

Hebrews 10:22 Hebrews 10:22

verse 22, reading from the King James Version. Let us

draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith,

having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our

bodies washed with pure water. Let us draw near with

a heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts

sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with

pure water. Amen. Let us kindly share a word of prayer. Father,

we thank you for your word that has come to us.

We pray that regardless of how deep we have sung,

O God, we will come to the realization that that

you have made a way for us to return to you.

We choose, O God, to come back to you, restore

our fellowship, restore our relationship with you. In Jesus' mighty

name we pray. Amen. God richly bless you, beloved, for

connecting with us for today's word. Remember, the way has

been opened to the Father. Do not listen to the

accusations of the devil. God is waiting for you with

arms open. Wide open. Do not leave Radio ACI today.

Remember that we have content carefully selected for your growth

and nourishment. Shalom and have a spirit-filled weekend. Amen.
