To Be Sure

Hebrews 10:22 “Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water”

So, you’re having a conversation with someone, and they say something significant. You stop, think about it, then say “just to be sure…”, then repeat back what they said. You just want to be absolutely certain you heard correctly. Sound familiar?

Did you know that God wants us “to be sure” that what He promised, He will perform in our lives? In Hebrews 10:22 it says that we can have “full assurance of faith“. In other words, to have full as-SURE-ance! Paul said “all the promises of God in Him are yes, and amen” (2 Cor. 1:20). There is never a “maybe” or “if” regarding His promises.

How can we be “sure”? How can we have “full assurance of faith”? Hebrews 10:22 also says “let us draw near”. Close fellowship with God and His word is the key to having full assurance of faith. When we fellowship with God and spend time poring over His word, faith flows at floodtide in our lives. The less attention we give the word, the more doubt and unbelief creeps in. Do you want “to be sure”? Do you want to have full assurance of faith? Then draw near to God today and fellowship with Him and His word.
