You are now free to move about in the pretense of God!Heb...
Hebrews 10:22
The writer of Hebrews is recapping a lot in this passage; basically he is demonstrating that Jesus actions allow us the opportunity to enter into the presence of God - because of the blood of Christ we have been purified, sanctified, made worthy to enter into the holy of holies and come near God.
Jesus tore open the veil that divided us from the Almighty and gave us direct access to the God of the Universe. Jesus sprinkled us clean and washed us with pure water…Jesus’ actions purified us and made us worthy to be in the presence of God.
Then in verse 22 the writer ties it all together so beautifully…
draw - to place yourself in front of; much like the followers of Jesus placed themselves at Jesus feet, listening to his teachings, observing his interactions with others, taking in his life on life engagements
sincere heart - a heart that is full or united with God because it is hidden in him; to be absorbed
full assurance - covered, clothed or fully accomplished
Listen to this verse now: because you are entirely clothed and covered in faith and it is this very faith that now unites with God - fully hidden in Him, filled with the presence and overwhelming nature of God, absorbed into His very essence…you should place yourself into His care; much like we did when Jesus walked among us - listen to Him, observe His ways and take in the life He gives.
Sit at the feet of God because you have a full heart that is hidden in God and entirely covered by your faith…and all because of what Jesus did for us by sacrificing himself to God on our behalf. Amazing! Simply amazing.
