Key Scripture: Hebrews 4:16
Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence…
Devotional
Bold prayer flows from understanding who God is and who we are in Him. Hebrews 4:16 reminds us that we are invited—not tolerated—in God’s presence. Confidence in prayer does not come from perfection; it comes from grace.
Many believers hesitate in prayer because of shame, fear, or unworthiness. But the throne we approach is a throne of grace. God welcomes us even when we feel weak, uncertain, or undeserving. Prayer becomes powerful when we stop shrinking back and start stepping forward.
Boldness in prayer is not arrogance; it is trust. It is believing that God hears, cares, and responds according to His wisdom. When we pray boldly, we acknowledge His authority and His compassion at the same time.
Today, let confidence replace hesitation. You are invited to come as you are and receive what you need.
