Hebrews 12:24 - Morning Devotional for Apr. 17th

"We are come to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel."

—Hebrews 12:24

Morning Thought​

Reader, have you come to the blood of sprinkling? The question is not whether you have come to a knowledge of doctrine, or an observance of ceremonies, or to a certain form of experience, but have you come to the blood of Jesus? The blood of Jesus is the life of all vital godliness. If you have truly come to Jesus, we know how you came-the Holy Spirit sweetly brought you there. You came to the blood of sprinkling with no merits of your own. Guilty, lost, and helpless, you came to take that blood, and that blood alone, as your everlasting hope. You came to the cross of Christ, with a trembling and an aching heart; and oh! what a precious sound it was to you to hear the voice of the blood of Jesus! The dropping of his blood is as the music of heaven to the penitent sons of earth. We are full of sin, but the Saviour bids us lift our eyes to him, and as we gaze upon his streaming wounds, each drop of blood, as it falls, cries, "It is finished; I have made an end of sin; I have brought in everlasting righteousness." Oh! sweet language of the precious blood of Jesus! If you have come to that blood once, you will come to it constantly. Your life will be "Looking unto Jesus." Your whole conduct will be epitomized in this-"To whom coming." Not to whom I have come, but to whom I am always coming. If thou hast ever come to the blood of sprinkling, thou wilt feel thy need of coming to it every day. He who does not desire to wash in it every day, has never washed in it at all. The believer ever feels it to be his joy and privilege that there is still a fountain opened. Past experiences are doubtful food for Christians; a present coming to Christ alone can give us joy and comfort. This morning let us sprinkle our door-post fresh with blood, and then feast upon the Lamb, assured that the destroying angel must pass us by.

''And to Yeshua, The Mediator of The New Covenant, and to the sprinkling of blood, which speaks better than that of Abel''...Almighty Creator of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob...Thank you for all living scripture, that researchers, scientists, theologians, clergy, and even down to I, need to interpret your words upon this earth. Thank you for the 'wayshowers' from the 12 tribes down to present day. From day to day, as creation has breathed into the Aether-you have been. Thank you for each stage of existence, to be more than just a life. Thank you Creator for the God Code, for acts of random kindness to good orderly direction. Thank you Creator, for loving us, when we did not know how to love ourselves. Thank you for the greatest gift of prayer. Thank you for those whom have been called and set apart. Watch over, guide, direct, each believer and wayshower in you. Thank you for your covenants with our ancestors and those of this new dispensation. May each find its place and may that place be filled with good in their worlds. May each who reads and prays, may they be blessed abundantly with every good and perfect gift. Amen, Amun, Ameen, Amin, Aum..
