Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus-.-.-.-let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. —Hebrews 10:19-22
In the Old Testament, covenant partners would plant a tree and sprinkle it with blood as a memorial to their covenant union. The blood-stained tree that symbolizes our union with Jesus Christ was planted two thousand years ago on Calvary. This blood, was applied to the mercy seat of God. Sin was no longer covered, but cleansed.
Now when we go before the Father in our guilt, He looks upon the perfect blood on the mercy seat and says, “Guilty but blameless.”
You may be carrying a burden of guilt for things you have done, attitudes you have held, or words you have spoken. Give your guilt to the Lamb who takes away the sin of the world. You can then stand before God in absolute confidence that the blood of Jesus has made you blameless.
Christ has made us partakers in His nature through His shed blood. With confidence and boldness you can come into the Holy of Holies because you are blameless in Christ Jesus.
With confidence and boldness, I enter into
Your presence, O God, through the shed
blood of Jesus. He alone is my
atonement. I praise
His Name. Amen.
