Hebrews 12

Hallelujah, now, by your grace, father, I live in your gospel kingdom. I have come to Mount Zion into the city of you, my living god, the heavenly Jerusalem. Now innumerable angels are camped around me and serve you perfectly, father.

Other firstborn sons are in fellowship with me. You, the perfect judge, minister your word to me and continue to perfect me. And here is Jesus.

I am with Jesus and he is with me. He intercedes for me and he mediates the new covenant to me. I see that his life and death and resurrection have spoken the final word over my life.

His sacrifice has bought my peace with you father, and purified my conscience. Now I have mercy and pardon. I am reconciled to you, father. I am a child of your pasture and a citizen of your kingdom, father.

And this is the kingdom that cannot be shaken. I have peace in my soul and abound with thankfulness and love. I have a new nature who enjoys obedience.
