For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul. – Leviticus 17:11

The Blood of Jesus Christ washes us clean. Jesus suffered, bled, and died, in order to redeem us from sin and death. He endured the cross. He made the ultimate atonement for our souls.

I, even I, am he who blots out your transgressions for my own sake; and I will not remember your sins. – Isaiah 43:25 (World English Bible)

What an amazing gift! This verse in Isaiah shows God’s beautiful heart. The heart of God, His great love for us, led him to make His precious Blood available to us. In His Word, God is saying that loves you so much that He is willing to remove your sins from you. God is Holy, and He wants you to be without sin so you can be close to Him.

The Church is called the Body of Christ. His perfect love for us resides in His heart. It is the heart that pushes the blood through the body. So God’s heart of love extends the merciful cleansing of His Blood to His Body, the Church on Earth.

Stay connected to the Body of Christ. Let the Blood of Jesus wash you once again. Seek the Lord with all of your heart, and re-experience His mercy and love.

Prayer for today: Lord Jesus, without your Blood, I would have died in my sins. I could not remove my own sins, but you died for me out of your love for me. I’m sorry I turned away from You. But I accept your love and mercy again. Apply your Blood to me once again. Show me your love in the ways I will recognize and understand. In Jesus’ Name I pray. Amen.
