The Holy of Holies: How to Enter the Throne Room of God

How do we enter the Holy of Holies and experience the presence of God? In this powerful Christian teaching, Gene Edwards explores the Holy of Holies, the throne room of God, the blood of Jesus Christ, prayer, and what it means for believers to come boldly before the throne of grace.

Drawing from the Old Testament tabernacle, 2 Corinthians 10, Hebrews, and Revelation 12, Gene presents the journey of the priest—from the outer altar into the Holy Place and ultimately into the Holy of Holies—as a picture of the believer learning to live and pray in the presence of God.

The message follows the priest through the altar, the bread, the lampstand, and the incense. Gene connects these pictures to practical Christian living: receiving Christ as our spiritual food, approaching Scripture with an exercised spirit, receiving spiritual light, offering prayer to God, and entering more deeply into fellowship with Jesus Christ.

But there is also a battle.

One of the greatest obstacles to entering God’s presence is condemnation. Feelings of failure, inadequacy, and unworthiness can keep Christians from approaching God with confidence. Gene challenges believers not to accept the accusations of the enemy, but to stand upon the blood of Jesus Christ and the believer’s position in Him.

Revelation 12 declares that God’s people overcome the accuser “by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony.” The Christian does not enter God’s presence because of personal worthiness, but because Jesus Christ has opened the way.

You are invited to come boldly before the throne of God.

This message is especially valuable for Christians seeking a deeper prayer life, greater intimacy with Christ, freedom from condemnation, spiritual growth, and a clearer understanding of the biblical meaning of the Holy of Holies.
