Jesus Is Our Accessor

Ephesians 2:18  "For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father." 

Jesus is our Mediator. Jesus is our Peacemaker. Jesus is our Redeemer. Jesus is also our Accessor. "For through him (Jesus) we both have access..."  It is only through Jesus we have access to the Father. John 14:6  "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."  Jesus is the way to the Father. Not only is Jesus the hallway that leads to the Father, He is also the door of the hallway. John 10:7,9  "Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep...I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture."   Jesus is our access to God. The Greek word for access is prosagōgē and it simply means admission. Jesus is our ticket of admission. If you have Jesus you have a non redeemable ticket to Heaven. More than that though, right now you have access to God in prayer because of Jesus. Hebrews 10:19  "Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,"  Jesus is the only one who has full access to God. He wants to us access all that God has for us. We must come to God through Jesus. When we pray we must pray in Jesus name. He is our Accessor.  Romans 5:2  "By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God."  By our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ we come boldly unto the throne of God. Are you praying like you should? Maybe you are under estimating the broad access that you have to the King! We have been granted access because of Jesus but we don't go the Father alone. It is the Holy Spirit who accompanies us in prayer to the throne making intercession for us. One Savior, One Holy Spirit and One Father. The child of God enjoys great company when he prays. 1Corinthians 8:6  "But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him."  Pray today, my friend. Pray!
