JESUS MET EVERY CLAIM OF GOD ON YOU

Leviticus
1:5 He shall kill the bull before the Lord; and the priests, Aaron’s
sons, shall bring the blood and sprinkle the blood all around on the altar
that is by the door of the tabernacle of meeting.
|
The sprinkling of the blood of a bull
or goat all around on that altar meant that the Israelites were under the
covering of the blood of that animal. Even when they sinned, their sins were
covered by the blood until the next sacrifice.When the children of Israel were in
the wilderness, God instructed them to set up a tabernacle as a place of
meeting between Him and them. Near the door of the tabernacle was an altar. It
speaks of the claims God makes on the righteousness of man. For this reason, an
offering had to be killed, its blood sprinkled all around on the altar and its
body burnt on the altar before one was counted worthy to go into God’s
presence.
The blood speaks of Jesus’ blood shed
for us at the cross. Yet, His blood is worth so much more than the blood of
bulls and goats because His blood is effective forever! In fact, His blood has
met every single claim of God on man to the point that God is so completely
satisfied that He now enjoys the savor of rest in what His Son has done.
You too can rest knowing that God is
fully satisfied with you because of Christ’s perfect sacrifice. Even if you
fall into sin, you can turn to the blood of Jesus. Your sins are not merely
covered by His blood, like how the blood of bulls and goats
covered sins. No, your sins have been washed away by His blood! (Revelation
1:5) In fact, your sins and lawless deeds God remembers no more! (Hebrews 8:12;
10:17)
Jesus was your perfect offering
placed on the altar of sacrifice. By just one offering of Himself, “He hath
perfected forever them that are sanctified”. (Hebrews 10:14, KJV) Jesus has not
only sanctified you or made you holy, He has perfected you forever! Today, you
can enter boldly into God’s presence because He sees you the way He sees Jesus.
He sees you perfected forever because you are in Christ!
Thought For The Day: Jesus has not only sanctified you or
made you holy, He has perfected you forever!
