Friday Rhapsody Of Realities - Salvation Through His Blood

In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace (Ephesians 1:7).

The blood of Jesus was shed for us, first, for the remission of sins, and secondly, that we may have life. His blood was divine, and through Him, not only have we obtained remission of sins, we've also received justification for the life that He's given to us. Our salvation came from His blood. That's why it was possible for us to be born again. Christ has been sacrificed for us, and in Him, we're given a new life; a life that's superior to Satan, death, hell, and the grave.

There's no destruction for the child of God! God told the children of Israel, "When I see the blood, I will pass over you, and you'll be shielded from the destroyer..." (Exodus 12:13). It doesn't matter in what way the destroyer tries to attack you, whether he comes to attack you with poverty, sickness, disease or infirmity of any kind, you're shielded; he'll not come into your house! You've passed from death unto life.

See, and appreciate your real value in the price that God paid for your salvation! You're worth the blood of Jesus Christ. You've become one with God, not because of what you did, but because of what Jesus did. The old religious thinking that God is so great while we're nothing before Him, is a lie of the devil. If you were nothing, He wouldn't pay for your salvation with the blood of Jesus Christ. The price He paid to save you shows how valuable you are: "Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold...But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot" (1 Peter 1:18-19).

PRAYER: Dear Lord, thank you for the precious blood of your Son, Jesus Christ. Having been justified by His blood, eternal life is mine. His blood, which was poured out for remission of sins gives me the right to a life of glory, peace, and dominion. I celebrate my treasured salvation, consummated by the blood of Christ, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
