Hebrews Chapters 4 & 5
Hebrews Chapters 4 & 5 Bible Study
Hebrews Chapter 4 describes how Jesus is our great High Priest. Jesus has shed His blood to make atonement for our sins and has ascended into Heaven as the unique Son of God.
He, being fully God and fully human, sympathizes with us and our problems. The former high priest had to enter the Holy of Holies every year and sprinkle the blood on the Mercy Seat after first sacrificing a bull for their own sins. Jesus has paid the price for all sins of all people for all time. He is our High Priest forever.

What is Prayer?
Prayer is talking to God and God talking to you.
There is no formula to prayer:
The A.C.T.S. prayer model will be helpful to you as you learn how to pray. ACTS stands for Adoration, Confession, Thanksgiving, and Supplication.
• Adoration means worship.
I like the comparison of the distance between us, humans, and an ant. We think nothing of the ant. The gap between us and God is infinitely greater than the distance between us and the ant. Yet God loves us! I always wonder why? It must be because God is Love. (1 John 4:8)
Psalms 46:1 God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.
Romans.8:38-39 For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor any other created thing, will be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
• Confession means agreeing with God about the things that you have done wrong.
• Thanksgiving basically means being thankful to God.
• Supplication is the final component:
