Hebrews 9:21
And in the same way, he [the high priest] sprinkled blood on the sacred tent and on everything used for worship.
Tuesday
Hebrews 9:22
In fact, I can say that according to the law of Moses, nearly everything was purified by sprinkling with blood. Without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness of sins.
Wednesday
Hebrews 9:23
That is why the earthly tent and everything in it--which were copies of things in heaven--had to be purified by the blood of animals. But the real things in heaven had to be purified with far better sacrifices than the blood of animals.
Thursday
Hebrews 9:24
For You, Christ, have entered into heaven itself to appear now before God as my Advocate. You did not go into the earthly place of worship, for that was merely a copy of the real Temple in heaven.
Friday
Hebrews 9:25
Nor did You enter heaven to offer Yourself again and again, like the earthly high priest who enters the Most Holy Place year after year to offer the blood of an animal.
Zingers from Croft M. Pentz, Tyndale House Publishers
4121. Prayer is not overcoming God’s reluctance but taking hold of God’s willingness.
4122. Never face a day until you have prayed.
4123. The devil is never very far away when you are too busy to pray.
4124. God will supply that for which we have knee’d.
4125. You cannot pray for peace with your hands clenched into fists.
