“…Your majesty! Who bled and died for me!...”
My sin left me owing a debt I could not pay. No matter how many religious hoops I jumped through I could never be righteous enough to gain access to God. It took a perfect Sacrifice to pay my debt. Jesus gave His life for me and paid my debt with the first drop of blood. He suffered the death my sin made inevitable in order to gain my access to eternal life with the Father -but none of that matters if I never appropriate that truth. To realize the power of the blood I must believe that the blood paid my debt and then actively receive that cleansing redeeming work as done once-and-for-all on my behalf.
Spend time today applying the truth of the cleansing power of the blood of Christ to every area of your existence.
In fact, the law requires that nearly everything be cleansed with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.
Hebrews 9:22 NIV
