How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God. Hebrews 9:14
Have you ever had something weigh heavy on your heart? Maybe you have messed up, or been guilty of sin. Sin has a tendency to paralyze us. It is hard to move forward because our minds stay on repeat, reliving the situation over and over again.
Hebrews 9 talks about the sacrifices that had to be made prior to Christ. People in the Old Testament would have to kill a certain animal for a certain sin in order to be made clean.
Then verse 14 comes along and makes the point that if goats and lambs blood used to cleanse sin how much more does the blood of Jesus Christ!
If you are struggling today with your past remember Christ has shed his blood for you. You are clean no matter what you have lying behind. Christ’s blood gives us a clear conscience! Let me say it again you have clear conscience! No more reliving the situation over and over again in your mind! You no longer have to be afraid of doing the things God has placed in your heart because of your past. His blood has freed you to serve the living God.
