Take Another Look at Jesus! - All Our Daily Bread Daily Devotionals for 2026

Read: Hebrews 3:1-6 | Bible in a Year: 1 Kings 6-7; Luke 20:27-47



But Christ is faithful as the Son over God's house. And we are his house, if indeed we hold firmly to our confidence and the hope in which we glory.

Hebrews 3:6



If there ever was a faithful person, it was Brother Justice. He was committed to his marriage, dedicated to his job as a postal worker, and each Sunday stood at his post as a leader in our local church. I visited my childhood church recently, and perched on the upright piano was the same bell that Brother Justice rang to notify us that the time for Bible study was about to end. The bell has endured the test of time. And although Brother Justice has been with the Lord for years, his legacy of faithfulness also endures.



Hebrews 3 brings a faithful servant and a faithful Son to the readers' attention. Though the faithfulness of Moses as God's "servant" is undeniable, Jesus is the one believers are taught to focus on. "Therefore, holy brothers and sisters . . . fix your thoughts on Jesus" (v. 1). Such was the encouragement to all who face temptation (2:18). Their legacy could come only from following Jesus, the faithful One.



Father, through Your Spirit, empower us to courageously love, honor, and follow the Lord Jesus Christ.



What do you do when the winds of temptation are swirling all around you? When you are weary and worn and want to quit? The text invites us to, as one paraphrase renders it, "Take a good hard look at Jesus" (3:1 The Message). Look at Him again—and again and again. As we reexamine Jesus, we find the trustworthy Son of God who gives us courage to live in His family.



Father, through Your Spirit, empower us to courageously love, honor, and follow the Lord Jesus Christ.



Looking to Jesus can give us courage to face the challenges in our lives.
