By The Blood of The Eternal Covenant

Now may the God of peace who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, by the blood of the eternal covenant, equip you with everything good that you may do his will. - Hebrews 13:20-21 (ESV)

We are in that time of the year where we (followers of Christ) celebrate the blood of the eternal covenant. When the bible speaks of blood it speaks of death. In the verse I posted today the author of Hebrews speaks of the blood of the eternal covenant; in other words, the death and crucifiction of Jesus Christ. As a Christ-follower, and one who is saved by this blood, I can walk in obedience to His will because of His great bleeding for me on the cross. I am reconciled to God through this blood. What a glorious rapture to know that the blood of the eternal covenant empowers me to do His will. Great Shepherd, thank you for your sacrifice of love. As a sheep I am prone to wander. Help me to yield myself to you in all things. Amen!
