Draw Near to God | Approaching His Presence with Full Assurance of Faith

Thursday Bible Study | July 16, 2026 Have you ever wondered what it truly means to draw near to God? Hebrews 10 tells us that through Jesus Christ we can approach God's presence with boldness and full assurance of faith. But too often, shame, guilt, and our past mistakes keep us at a distance from the very God who is calling us closer. In this Bible study, we explore what Scripture teaches about drawing near to God through the blood of Jesus Christ, the leading of the Holy Spirit, and the confidence we have because of God's grace. We'll examine Hebrews 10, Exodus 33, and 1 Chronicles 16 to discover what it means to give God the glory due His name, walk in full assurance of faith, and worship Him in the beauty of holiness. From Moses asking God, "Show me Your glory," to the Passover, baptism, and God's invitation to enter His presence, we'll uncover the biblical principles that reveal God's intentional design for relationship with His people. You'll also discover why God is not pulling away from us—we are often the ones holding back—and how Christ has made a way for us to boldly draw near. Join us as we learn that God's grace is greater than our shame, His presence is greater than our past, and His invitation still stands today: Draw near to God.
