Hebrews 1:11

Both the one who makes men holy and those who are made holy are of the same family. So Jesus is not ashamed to call them brothers.

Jesus is not ashamed of us.

Sometimes, you may hear the accusations of the enemy, or maybe wrong preaching, that claims that there are times when Jesus is ashamed of you. Perhaps, that every part of our life is being filmed and will one day be played in heaven to our eternal shame.

If Jesus is not ashamed of us who are we to claim to be so holy and righteous that we are ashamed!

No, Christ did not come to shame us but to call us brothers and sisters.

He stands in front of His Father and presents you proudly (v13). It is Christ’s great joy to tell you everything about our heavenly Father (v12).

So sing it like Sister Sledge – We are family!

Prayer for this week: Father, thank you for your love that sees everything I’m not and still qualifies me to do great things! Father, I can be confident in what you can do through me. I have not been called just to be saved but to something much greater. Speak to me and direct my steps.
