Rev. 8:3<\/a>.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nWe believe that the angel in this passage is none other than the Lord Jesus Himself. And His ministry here is full of comfort and encouragement for us.<\/p>\n
What is He doing? He takes the prayers of all saints, adds His precious incense to them and presents them to God the Father.<\/p>\n
We know only too well that our prayers and praises are very imperfect. We don\u2019t know how to pray as we should. Everything we do is stained with sin, with false motives, with selfishness.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe holiest hours we spend in prayer upon our knees,
\nThe times when most we deem our songs of praise will please,
\nThou Searcher of all hearts, forgiveness pour on these.\u201d<\/p>\n
But before our worship and intercession ever get to God the Father, they pass through the Lord Jesus. He removes every trace of imperfection so that when they finally reach the Father they are flawless. And something else that is very wonderful happens. He offers the incense with the prayers of the saints. The incense speaks of the fragrant perfection of His person and work. It is this that gives efficacy to our prayers.<\/p>\n
What an encouragement this should be to us. We are all too aware of how we bungle in prayer. We slaughter the rules of grammar, express ourselves inelegantly and say things that are doctrinal absurdities. But this need not discourage us from praying. We have a Great High Priest who edits and purifies all our communications with the Father.<\/p>\n
Mary Bowley captured the truth in poetic form when she wrote:<\/p>\n
Much incense is ascending
\nBefore th\u2019 eternal throne;
\nGod graciously is bending
\nTo hear each feeble groan;
\nTo all our prayers and praises
\nChrist adds His sweet perfume,
\nAnd love the censer raises
\nThese odours to consume.<\/p>\n

\u00bbUnd ein anderer Engel kam und stellte sich an den Altar, und er hatte ein goldenes R\u00e4ucherfass; und es wurde ihm viel R\u00e4ucherwerk gegeben, auf dass er Kraft gebe den Gebeten aller Heiligen auf dem goldenen Altar, der vor dem Throne ist.\u00ab Offenbarung 8,3<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\nWir glauben, dass der Engel in diesem Vers niemand anders ist als der Herr JesusSelbst. Und Sein Dienst hier ist voller Trost und Ermutigung f\u00fcr uns.Was tut Er? Er nimmt die Gebete aller Heiligen, f\u00fcgt Seinen kostbaren Weihrauchhinzu und bringt sie so vor Gott den Vater.<\/p>\n
Wir wissen nur allzu gut, dass unser Gebet und Lobpreis \u00e4u\u00dferst unvollkommen ist. Wir verstehen es nicht, so zu beten, wie wir eigentlich sollten. Alles, was wir tun, ist mit S\u00fcnde, mit falschen Motiven, mit Selbstsucht befleckt.<\/p>\n
\u00bb\u00dcber die heiligsten Stunden, die wir im Gebet auf unseren Knien verbringen, \u00dcber die Zeiten, wenn wir am meisten meinen, dass unsere Loblieder Dir gefallen, O Erforscher der Herzen, gie\u00df Deine Vergebung \u00fcber sie aus.\u00ab<\/p>\n
Aber bevor unsere Anbetung und F\u00fcrbitte vor Gott den Vater kommt, geht sie \u00fcber den Herrn Jesus. Er entfernt jede Spur von Unvollkommenheit, so dass sie v\u00f6llig tadellos ist, wenn sie schlie\u00dflich den Vater erreicht. Und noch etwas Wunderbares geschieht dabei. Mit den Gebeten der Heiligen opfert Er das R\u00e4ucherwerk. Der Weihrauch spricht von der wohlriechenden Vollkommenheit Seiner Person und Seines Werkes. Das ist es, was unsere Gebete letztlich wirksam macht.<\/p>\n
Was f\u00fcr eine Ermunterung sollte uns das sein! Wir sind uns nur zu deutlich bewusst, wie st\u00fcmperhaft unser Gebet ist. Wir machen die Regeln der Grammatik nieder, dr\u00fccken uns alles andere als gew\u00e4hlt aus und sagen oft lehrm\u00e4\u00dfige Absurdit\u00e4ten. Aber das braucht uns nicht vom Gebet zu entmutigen. Wir haben einen Gro\u00dfen Hohenpriester, der all unsere Kommunikation mit dem Vater \u00fcberarbeitet und reinigt. Mary Bowley erfasst diese Wahrheit in dichterischer Form:<\/p>\n
Viel Weihrauch steigt empor
\nVor den ewigen Thron;
\nGott beugt Sich in Gnade hernieder
\nUm jedes schwache Seufzen zu h\u00f6ren;
\nZu allen unseren Gebeten und Lobpreisungen
\nF\u00fcgt Christus Seinen kostbaren Wohlgeruch hinzu,
\nUnd Seine Liebe hebt das Rauchfass,
\nAll diese D\u00fcfte zu verbreiten.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
