The Daily is Our Resource for Studying God’s Word
Today's passage is an exploration of faith through numerous examples in the Old Testament. These exemplars were anything but. These were people, like you and me, full of faults. Their stories include a variety of sins: lying, murder, and prostitution to name a few, and so much doubt and faithlessness throughout.
Luke
In this passage, we see faith defined through the actions of our ancestors and the model of faith that they have set for us. As humans, we often rely on our senses to explain the tangible world, but God calls us to use our spirit to have a confident step in full faith, rather than a “blind leap”, in Him and to earnestly seek Him.
Josh
Today's passage closes out Hebrews and our Then God Sat Down series. Through Hebrews, we've been encouraged, exhorted, admonished, and challenged in so many ways. Even in the last few sentences, the Holy Spirit through the author is still prodding us forward: toward continued prayer, toward a clear conscience, and to be more fully equipped for the work God has laid out for us. Let the word of God continue to inspire you daily to continue to make progress in leading a life that is more honoring of God and beneficial for your brothers and sisters and the world that so desperately needs the love we have to share.
Luke
Life often times can be a struggle. It is easy to lose hope in the midst of trial and when we see the tragedies of this world. What Hebrews wants us to be encouraged in today is that in the midst of the failings of this world and ourself we can hold onto the hope of Christ’s reconciliation of this world.
