Topic: Shedding of Blood

April 13, 2022 Bible Verse | Inspirational Message & Prayer
Inspirational Message: Blood is central to life. One common expression is that life is defined as flesh and blood.
Through blood tests, we learn the real condition of our health – what diseases we carry, warning signs. Hundreds of procedures analyze blood to measure red and white blood cells. Doctors study blood chemistry, clotting, and acidity. Through blood tests we discover how body parts are functioning and an amazing number of other insights.
The Bible indicates that God is serious about blood. Confirming what doctors now know, it tells us that the life of all flesh is its blood (v. 14). We see the importance of blood during the time of Passover as it was the blood of the lamb that provided the sign that protected the Israelites from death (Exodus 12:3-7).
This role came to completion through the death of Jesus who was the “Lamb of God” (John 1:29). His death and the blood He shed brought life to us (Romans 8:3). The Bible tells us that we “are made right with God when [we] believe that Jesus sacrificed his life” for us (Romans 3:25 NLT).
Because of Jesus’ blood “we have redemption” (Ephesians 1:7). We are forgiven (Hebrews 9:22) and freed from sin (Revelation 1:5). During this Passover season, remember the blood that Jesus shed for you. His blood brings you forgiveness and healing, protection and covering. Because of His blood, it is finished.
Prayer: Dear Lord Jesus, thank You for shedding Your blood for me. I accept Your sacrificial death for me. Thank You for setting me free! In Your name, amen.
