Digest

Answer from what the passage actually says — stay in the text.

  1. What does this passage show me about God?

    • Why were sacrifices needed for sin, and what does Hebrews say Jesus did once for all?
  2. What does it show me about people — and about myself?

    • Where do you still try to earn forgiveness that Jesus already secured?
  3. What will I obey this week? (a concrete step, with a day)

    • How will you rest in Jesus' finished sacrifice this week?
  4. Who will I tell?

    • Who is weighed down by guilt that needs to hear it is finished?

Grow

Growth is God's part, not yours. Do the cycle faithfully and trust Him to give the growth (1 Corinthians 3:6–7).

Pray

God, thank you that Jesus offered himself once for all, so I no longer need sacrifice after sacrifice. Help me rest in his finished work.
