Maybe you think, “It’s too late; not even God could save me.” Or maybe you are a Christian, but you look at your life and wonder if you will make it to the end. Here’s what the Bible says about Jesus Christ, “He is able to save completely those who come to God through him.” (Hebrews 7:25). A thorough and complete rescue for anyone who comes to God through Jesus—no exceptions, no case too hard.

I met a man the other day who asked me a straightforward question: “Tell me this, is God able to save me?”

“Yes, he is able,” I answered, to which he responded, “No, you don’t know me, God can’t save me.”

“You’re right, I don’t know you, but I know God. And he is able.”

“No,” he insisted, and turned away.

Maybe it was playing on my subconscious, but a few weeks later I found myself preaching on a series of verses in the Bible that have one thing in common—that little phrase “He is able”. They breathe hope, strength and assurance. They are promises made to those who are looking, or need encouragement to look to Jesus Christ for rescue, and to those of us who have put our trust in Jesus, but need fresh hope, strength and assurance.

Here’s what the Bible says about Jesus Christ, “He is able to save completely those who come to God through him.” (Hebrews 7:25).

You begin to wonder “Does God know how hard this is for me?” Then comes the answer: “Because he himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted.” (Hebrews 2:18) Look to him for help – it will come.
