Hebrews 3

Holy brethren should focus on Jesus, the apostle and high priest of their confession. He is compared to Moses, who was faithful in God’s house; yet Jesus deserves greater honor because He is the Son over God’s house, not merely a servant within it. Christians must not harden their hearts, like the Israelites who rebelled during their time in the wilderness. Due to their unbelief, they were unable to enter God’s rest. The writer urges believers to encourage one another daily and to remain confident in their faith. Holding firmly to Christ until the end is evidence that they belong to Him. Faithfulness and obedience are essential for continuing in God’s promises, and all who fail to hold fast to these principles will be subject to the wrath of God.

Our walk with God requires constant attention and encouragement. We are not meant to follow Jesus alone. When doubt or discouragement creeps in, we need one another to speak truth and remind each other of God’s faithfulness. Our hearts can easily grow hard if we stop listening to His voice. We must be careful not to let unbelief take root. Jesus is the glorious ruler over God’s house, and we are His people if we stay committed and confident. Each day presents a chance to trust Him more. Let us lean into our faith, stay connected with our spiritual family, and encourage one another to remain faithful and obedient as we move toward the heavenly rest God has promised.

Kind Father, thank You for sending Jesus to be our Apostle and High Priest. We acknowledge His authority, as He is worthy of all glory and honor. He is faithful as a Son over Your house, and we take great comfort in living within His dwelling. Please help us remain confident, soft-hearted, and filled with hope in all circumstances. Israel failed to trust You and missed out on Your promised rest. Learning from their mistakes, we pray for wisdom to support one another and to encourage each other to hold fast to Your assurances firmly until the end of time. 

Thought Questions:

What did Jesus do that makes Him worthy of more honor and glory than even Moses? How do you give Him the honor He so richly deserves?

Why did Israel have to drift along in the wilderness for forty years? How do you protect your heart from the hardness and faithlessness of Israel?

Do God’s people need each other to help against unbelief and poor choices? In what ways do you prioritize interaction with fellow believers?
