Today’s Scripture: “Behind the second curtain was a second section called the Most Holy Place, having the golden altar of incense and the ark of the covenant covered on all sides with gold, in which was a golden urn holding the manna, and Aaron's staff that budded, and the tablets of the covenant. Above it were the cherubim of glory overshadowing the mercy seat.” Hebrews 9:3-5a, ESV 

Theme: God’s holiness is beyond our comprehension or ability to attain. Only God could make a way save us by His mercy. 

Today’s Scripture: “Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.” Hebrews 10:
