Beats From Your Pastor’s Heart
Hebrews 10:16-17, “This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them; And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.”
To God, our sin is not even in His thought.
That is how powerful the blood is.
How ridiculous it is to be accused, when the blood has removed all our sins from God’s thought.
He cannot remember them.
Hebrews 10:18 says, “Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.”
The blood was shed once for all.
So all that is necessary is to have boldness to enter into God’s presence.
Where is our boldness?
Our boldness is in the blood of Jesus.
When the Lord was on the cross, one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and out came blood and water.
Simultaneously out of His side issued blood for redemption and water for life.
What has the simultaneous action of the blood and the water done for us and over us?
Here we are–messed up, sinful, unfinished people.
As the blood is cleansing us, at the same time God is imparting His life into us.
This is the new covenant.
It is God’s agreement that He is going to write Himself into us.
He is going to operate within.
He is going to change us from within.
But He has to come in where all this dirt is.
Where can He put Himself?
It is all contaminated in us.
In other words, He wants to come in and change our mind; He wants to come in and change our emotions.
But how is He going to get into all those dirty parts?
It seems He is restricted to one spot in us–our spirit.
But the blood cleanses us for God to inhabit us and to operate on us imperfect human beings.
Until Tomorrow
With A Shepherd’s Love,
Pastor Jackson
