No More Sacrifices

Where there is forgiveness of these, there is no longer any offering for sin (Hebrews 10:18 ESV)

So let us come near to God with a sincere heart and a sure faith, with hearts that have been purified from a guilty conscience and with bodies washed with clean water. Hebrew 10:22

For by a single offering he has perfected for all time those who are being sanctified. (Hebrews 10:14 ESV)

Nor was it to offer himself repeatedly, as the high priest enters the holy places every year with blood not his own, for then he would have had to suffer repeatedly since the foundation of the world. But as it is, he has appeared once for all at the end of the ages to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself (Hebrews 9:25-26)

Christ, however, offered one sacrifice for sins, an offering that is effective forever, and then he sat down at the right side of God. Hebrews 10:12

 

 

Because we have been forgiven

There is no longer

Any need for sin offerings

Or offerings for sin

 

 

Men are naturally born

With guilty conscience

That tells them that

They must pay for their sins

 

The truth is that

Man cannot pay for sins

Because no payment

Is enough to achieve forgiveness

Of sins

 

That was why God sent

His son Jesus

To pay for our sins with

His precious blood

 

Earthly religions

Are centered around

Offerings for sins

And sacrifices for sins

 

Even the religions that do

Not appear to offer sacrifices

Have hidden or secret sacrifices

Offered on their behalf

By religious leaders

Who hide it from

Their members

 

These leaders or Pastors

Are known as

Secret Priests

And the sacrifices they offer

Rob their victims

To pay the beneficiaries

 

Even the churches that claim

To sacrifice Jesus again

Are in great error

Jesus died once

He cannot suffer over

And over again

With continuous sacrifices.

He suffered once

He died once

With one sacrifice

He obtained eternal salvation

 

God condemns all forms

Of sacrifices

Whether hidden, secret

Or open

Because they appear innocent externally

But they are inherently evil

In the spirit world

 

Without the shedding of blood

There is no forgiveness of sins

So rejecting the blood of Jesus

Means that man is offering

Another blood for forgiveness

And freedom

He is looking for salvation elsewhere

And that salvation must come through blood

 

Any other offering or sacrifice

For sin is an abomination

Before God

And the priests

And beneficiaries of those

Offerings stand condemned before God

 

For this reason,

We must reject every other

Form of salvation and forgiveness

That is not dependent on the blood

Of Jesus

His Laws On Our Hearts

I will put my laws on their hearts,

and write them on their minds (Hebrews 10:16 ESV)

 

No matter how hard

We try,

We can never write the

Word of God on our hearts

By our own power.

 

 

Only the Holy Spirit

Can do that.

He is the teacher

Who has the power

To plant the word of God

Deep in our hearts and minds.

 

He is the only one

That can give spiritual understanding

Or light

He gives knowledge and wisdom.

 

As we desire the sincere

Milk of the word, and

Meditate and pray

For wisdom, revelation and understanding

He will open our minds and hearts

And plant and write His words in our hearts

 

When He does that,

And there is no miscarriage

Or abortion

And the word of God grows

To maturity,

We will then bear

hundred fold fruits

The fruits and virtues of Love

Joy, hope, peace, faith and many others

Will shine from our hearts

Into our daily lives

Pursue Holiness And Peace

Pursue peace with all people, and holiness, without which no one will see the Lord (Hebrews 12:14 NKJV)

We are commanded to pursue peace and holiness. This means we must make it our

aim to constantly love others and promote peace in our daily lives. We are also commanded to pursue holiness because without holiness no one can see the Lord.

God is holy, commands holiness and delights in holiness. Holiness is His very nature, desire and will. Jesus loved righteousness and hated sin and 1 Peter 1:16 says, for it is written: “Be holy, because I am holy.”

We should love what God loves and hate what God hates. This means that we must never flirt with sin and we must despise sin with a holy passion. We must flee all appearances of evil.

We must also not forget that God desires faith, and pleasing Him cannot be complete without faith. The Bible commands us to walk in faith by clinging to His word as the final authority on any topic or subject. We must have faith in the love that God has for us and the love that He expressed for us on the cross by dying in our place. From this faith we respond to His love by loving others, complete obedience, walking in His plans for our lives and absolute holiness.

As we do all these, we add prayer, praise, worship, thanksgiving, patience and perseverance. Then the God of peace who sees our love and faith will be with us.

When You See Me Cry

When you see me cry

What goes through

Your mind?

Do you think I am weak

Pathetic and and unattractive?

 

 

When you see me cry

What goes through your mind?

Joy, power, glee

Tell me

What goes through your mind?

 

I know you love to

See me cry

And I have cried for you and

In front of you

Several times

 

I cried because I am human

I cried because

That was the only way

I could release my hurt, pain

And frustration

At your brutality and abuse

 

Today

I no longer care

About what goes through

Your mind when I cry

 

Today

I am taking back my dignity

And respect

I will no longer cry

To give you

Sadistic joy

 

I will leave your presence

And your life

And believe me

I will never cry for you again,

Never.

The Finisher Of Our Faith

Looking unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith (Hebrews 12:2 NKJV)

But the Spirit produces love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, humility, and self-control. Galatians 5:22

Your lives will be filled with the truly good qualities which only Jesus Christ can produce, for the glory and praise of God. Philippians 1:11

 

Our faith can never be complete

Without Christ’s grace and help.

Our faith cannot be finished

or perfect

Without Him

 

 

He is the one

That bears fruits

In us

 

He started it all

He called us

He cleansed us

And became our father

Therefore, we are absolutely nothing

Without Him

 

Christ is grace, glory and mercy

Our faith cannot grow

Except by the power of Christ

 

We must keep looking unto Him

And at Him

We must fix our gaze

On His words

And His life

And imitate Him

 

As we meditate on His word

Let us also pray

That we will be

Given grace and power to understand His word

It is only this spiritual understanding

That will give birth to faith

And other fruits and virtues

Necessary for

Christian growth and maturity.

Grace Be Multiplied

Grace and peace be multiplied to you in the knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord, (2 Peter 1:2 NKJV)

Consider what I say, and may the Lord give you understanding in all things (2 Timothy 2:7 NKJV)

 

When grace is multiplied

In the knowledge

Of God

We will understand His word

And His will.

 

 

We will no longer

Struggle to believe

That the blood of Jesus

Has set us free

We will simply know it

In our spirits

And our spirits

Will confess His Holy Word.

Then our lives will

Be restored by heart faith

Trust and belief

In God’s great redemption

Even as we strive to

Love one another.

 

So let us approach

The throne of grace

In humility

Because He gives grace

To the humble

 

As we meditate on His glorious word

Let us pray for

Grace to understand

So that the light of His word

Will penetrate deep enough

To produce heart conviction and faith

 

Blessed be God

Blessed be His Holy Name

Blessed be His Holy word

Blessed be Jesus

For a great and glorious

Redemption

He Gives Families To The Lonely

God sets the solitary in families;

He brings out those who are bound into prosperity. (Psalm 68:6 NKJV)

 

God will give

Families to the lonely,

Because loneliness is against His will.

 

 

The lonely will once again,

Have companions,

That will lead to great happiness.

 

God will wipe away

The tears and sorrows,

Of the lonely and unloved.

 

Those who were once called unloved

Will be called loved, blessed and cherished.

The blessings of God

Will overwhelm them.

The Light Of Heaven

When it seams

Like all hope is gone

And mercy is absent

And denied

 

 

When favour and blessings

Look unattainable

And life seams bleak

And dark

That is the time to

Offer our knees in prayer

And cry out for help

 

It is not the time

To give in to depression

Hopelessness and despair

Rather it is the time

To cling to faith in

The blood of Jesus

And activate power

By prayer, praise and thanksgiving

 

It is the time to spend long

Hours in God’s presence

And wait upon Him

Until the light of heaven

Shows up

 

Praise God

For the gift of prayer!
