ACCESS: Through Christ, you now have access to the Father - Ephesians 2:17

Christ came and preached peace to you outsiders [Gentiles] and peace to us insiders [Jews]. He treated us as equals, and so made us equals. Through Him, we both share the same Spirit and have equal access to the Father. Ephesians 2:16-17 MSG

POEM: "OPENED BY JESUS" -
The doors of heaven were opened on a cross at Calvary,
As Jesus willingly died that all could be made sin-free.
Fulfilling the desires of His Father's love for humankind,
For sin had a grip on man, making him spiritually blind.

His greatest miracle came when He opened heaven's gate,
As He bled and died so all would have a chance to celebrate.
He shed His blood to cleanse the sins of those who believed,
That when they leave this life in His arms, they'll be received.

Praise & Prayer
Loving Father, I enter Your holy presence with deep reverence and gratitude for the incredible sacrifice of Your Son, Jesus Christ, on the cross. Your Spirit, assures me that I'm no longer an outsider or inferior in Your eyes. Thank You for the precious gift of complete acceptance as Your beloved child. Lord Jesus, I praise You for coming to preach peace that rids my heart of all insecurity and fear to approach God. Thank You for opening the gates of heaven and the holy of holies to give all humanity the hope of salvation and reconciliation with our heavenly Father. Please guide me Holy Spirit to someone today who is troubled and feels like an outcast. Use my care to open their ears to hear this wonderful promise of access to the Father through Christ. Hosanna in Jesus' mighty name.
