Messiah’s Blood is on the Heavenly Mercy Seat
The love of Yahveh (the Lord) is poured out. It is in the blood of Yahshua (Jesus) that is on the mercy seat! It is ready to be poured out upon our hearts to cleanse us of all unrighteousness. If we only accept the fact that we have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God and confess our sins openly before the Holy One who searches our hearts and knows exactly what is in there. Praise to the One who has called us to be holy for “without holiness no one will see the Lord.” (Hebrews 12:14) The confession of our lips and wearing of religious badges, titles, and positions have nothing to do with the remnant, who will enter that “narrow gate” and make pilgrimage on that Highway of Holiness into His eternal presence. (Matthew 7:13-14, Isaiah 35:8)
“Choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve” (Joshua 24:15)—whom you will glorify. Choose what you will do for the pleasure of yourself or for the pleasure of the One who has called you out of this world, for His own good pleasure, to glorify and represent Him to others. Will you use all that He has invested in you for that very purpose for His glory? HalleluYAH, this is what the blood redeemed you for. Anything short of this is the “trampling of the blood of the covenant” that was poured out to sanctify you for Him. (Hebrews 10:29)
Prayer
Have mercy, Father in Heaven, there is not one of us who should not be stricken with the fear of You, which is a blessing that will give us wisdom. King David cried out, “Teach us to number our days, that we may present to You, O Yahveh, a heart of wisdom” (Psalm 90:12). This is wisdom from above, which will cause us to make righteous choices that will please the Righteous One. Blessed be His holy name.
Yahveh, You are merciful. You are the Holy One of Israel, and You are calling me to look closely at what You are pointing out in my heart, what You are pointing out in my human nature and tendencies, that I might see it from Your perspective, that I might see it according to the examples in Your Word of the many who sinned against You. The same things war against my spirit. May I learn from their example.
Father You are merciful. The utmost expression of Your mercy is on the mercy seat in the heavenly Holy of Holies. It is the blood of Yahshua (Jesus) the Lamb, poured out to atone, cleanse, and purify me of my sins, of the rebellions, of the lust and cravings of my flesh, of my disobedience, and of all those things that so easily beset me. Thank You for Your delivering power that will set me free. Amen
