Devotional: October 2nd
" Let us draw near with a true heart." - Hebrews 10:22.
Seek to sound the depths of the meaning of this word, draw near. Examine the supplications of a thousand suppliants, and they will show these suppliants scattered at a thousand different distances from God, but almost all at a great distance, and out of the whole perhaps only one dose to the throne of grace.
There is much to hinder this drawing near. There is the inherited habit of unbelieving prayer. The supineness of the soul. Worldly care. Worldly joy. Inappreciation of the possible blessing. Fear of discovering some unheeded responsibilities. Want of realization of God’s personality. And a multitude of others.
There are to be combats all along the road. It is here we must fight the good fight of faith. It is a noble victory when we get near to God; for it is a pledge of all other victories.
