Hebrews 1:1-4
Long ago God spoke to the fathers by the prophets at different times and in different ways. In these last days, He has spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things and through whom He made the universe. He is the radiance of His glory, the exact expression of His nature, and He sustains all things by His powerful word. After making purification for sins, He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high. So He became higher in rank than the angels, just as the name He inherited is superior to theirs. (HCSB)
In my supervisory days, I never felt like I could tell someone what to do until I could do it myself. On the farm that meant driving tractors, loaders, and various other equipment to familiarize myself with the nature of the work and what it was done with. Because of that habit it did away with many of the useless excuses of why someone failed to do what was given for them to do that day.
What is amazing to me is that God did the very same thing. He didn’t sit on His Throne and demand things that we could not do. He came down to experience just exactly what we face every day because of His great love for us. He knows our weaknesses and the trials that we walk through in life because He has been there too, but without sin, and failure.
This will also do away with all of our excuses of why we couldn’t do what He asked us to do. The messenger He sent in these Last Days was His Son. Jesus came to intercede for us, and He now sits at the right hand of the Father to help us with our trials and weaknesses. Jesus can help us through these trials, if we would but ask for help. This is the main reason our excuses will fall on deaf ears, because The Son experienced them all…God Bless
