O The Blood

Luke 23:26-49

O the blood of Jesus washes me. Praise the Lord. How often do you think about what Jesus went through for you? Is it once a month, every other month, or maybe it’s every day but when you think of it do you thank Him? Do you remember that He suffered for you, bled for you, wept for you or do you look at it as a clean and simple “He paid my sins”.

So many times Christians say well Jesus saved my sins now I need to continue on with the rest of my life. I am thankful for the past but now it’s the future. I beg you friends not to ever forget the past but instead praise the name of Jesus for what he did. Do not ever forget the pain, suffering, anguish, and heartache that He went through to allow us eternity with Him. The lessons that we can learn from the crucifixion story are lessons that are of the utmost importance. What a Savior we have. We must live in the future but we must also respect the past. What Jesus did should never be watered down or adjusted so people feel comfortable with hearing it. Jesus suffered and died for you! He went through all of that for a purpose and a reason and it was definitely not to be forgotten.

“What a sacrifice, that saved my life” Please listen to this song.

The savior of the world was beaten and bruised for me. Thank you Jesus! He was mocked and abused for me. Thank you Jesus! He wore a crown of thorns for me. Thank you Lord! Sweating and Bleeding He carried a heavy cross for me. Thank you Lord Jesus!  He endured all the pain that a human can endure for me. Thank you Jesus! He did not order the heavens to save Him but instead hung on that cross for me. Oh thank you dear Jesus. He set the ultimate example for me by asking His father to forgive His killers because they did not know what they were doing. Thank you Lord! He rose again conquering all death for me. Praise the Holy name of Jesus! Amen.
