“CONSIDER JESUS!”

 Hebrews 3:1-6                                                (ESV)

JESUS Greater Than Moses

“[1] Therefore, holy brothers, you who share in a heavenly calling, “CONSIDER JESUS”, the Apostle and High Priest of our confession, [2] WHO was faithful to HIM WHO appointed HIM, just as Moses also was faithful in all GOD’s house. [3] For JESUS has been counted WORTHY OF MORE GLORY than Moses—as much more glory as the builder of a house has more honor than the house itself. [4] (For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is GOD.) [5] Now Moses was faithful in all GOD’s house as a servant, to testify to the things that were to be spoken later, [6] but CHRIST is faithful over GOD’s house as a SON. And we are his house, if indeed we hold fast our confidence and our boasting in our hope.”

The human that ALMIGHTY GOD used to pen what is known as the book of Hebrews has been debated for years with no definitive answer to the issue.  Without getting bogged down in the controversy surrounding who that person is, we SHOULD be focusing on “CONSIDER JESUS”, the Author and Finisher of our FAITH (Hebrews 12:2 KJV)!  

Moses was (and still is by some) considered to be the deliverer from Egyptian captivity.  There were a lot who credited him for the deliverance from slavery.  But the SPIRIT OF GOD led the author of Hebrews to ask us to “CONSIDER JESUS”, not Moses who was used by our CREATOR to lead the captives to freedom!  We are ALL simply used to Glorify JESUS, we simply need to “CONSIDER JESUS” to enunciate HIS rightful position in our lives!

We tend to get caught up in making sure our “gardens” have their crops all in a row rather than growing plants that are strong and viable to be used for HIS service?  As long as we “CONSIDER JESUS”, we are doing what we are CALLED to do!!!
