Today's Passage - Hebrews 10:5-10

Hebrews 10:5-10
Therefore, when Christ came into the world, he said: "Sacrifice and offering you did not desire, but a body you prepared for me; with burnt offerings and sin offerings you were not pleased. Then I said, 'Here I am--it is written about me in the scroll-- I have come to do your will, O God.' " First he said, "Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not desire, nor were you pleased with them" (although the law required them to be made). Then he said, "Here I am, I have come to do your will." He sets aside the first to establish the second. And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.
The precious blood of Jesus is very effective. It can wash away our sins, anoint our past transgressions, deliver us from our guilty feeling of sin, and cleanse us. Our younger daughter used to cry a lot and she had frequent nightmares. She would wake up frightened from nightmares in which someone was chasing her. During that period, we often prayed for her. However, it didn't seem to have much effect. One day the teacher asked us to come because our daughter had done something dishonest at school. The teacher wanted to punish her. When we were home, my wife and I started praying for her, and asked her whether she believed that the blood of Jesus could wash away her sins. She said she believed. I asked whether she was willing to bring her sin to Jesus, asking to be anointed by our Lord's blood. She said she was willing. We prayed with her together. But we didn't expect when our daughter said to us:" There are other sins to confess." She started telling us many things that we had told her not to do, but she had done anyway. We started bringing each transgression to Jesus and asking to be cleanses by our Lord's blood.   At last, we asked whether there were any more. She said there was no more. From that day on, our daughter no longer had nightmare. The reason that our daughter had no joy in the past was because she was under the bondage of sins.
.    
When we come to Jesus and confess our sins, the blood of our Lord not only anointed our sins, but also our feeling of guiltiness. All you need to do is come to Lord, confess your sins, and welcome Jesus' work. You will discover that the precious blood not only anoints your transgression, but deliver you from the feeling of guiltiness. You only need to welcome Him wholeheartedly, surrender yourself to Him wholeheartedly, and the grace of Jesus Christ will come upon you!
Pray with Pastor Tong
Lord, we thank you because you are a faithful God. You not only loved us and sacrificed for us, your precious blood also delivered us from the bondage of all evils. We thank you and we pray in the victorious name of Jesus, Amen!
