The earthly sanctuary services were appointed of God to help man know and understand exactly what God was willing to do for him. Every animal slain by the hand of the sinner was to be a miniature Calvary. It was to reveal to man the deep-seated enmity he held against God, but in the same instant to prove to him that God held nothing back, not even His Son, if by any means He could bring man to see his rebellion. It was in this way that God prepared the catalyst to break the proud and stubborn heart of man. Nothing less than “blood” could wash away such an awful sin as his, i.e., the will to kill God.

The Fruit of the Spirit - Peace

This afternoon I have sensed the Spirit of God close to me. I have felt a sense of peace and calm that has made me feel like an adoring child in his Father's lap, knowing he is secure and safe.

I have felt a deeper yearning to be near my Saviour

I have stood in wonder and admiration that the glory of all heaven would take my nature and was not ashamed to call me His brother. Who can comprehend such love.

I have sensed the majesty and power of God as revealed in His Law. How mighty is the God who made the heavens and the earth. How infinite and vast are His thoughts and His ways past finding out.

I know I have sensed these things because of the prayers of those I love. I can only plead with my Saviour that all who read this, will be granted to walk the path I walked today and sense the wonder, majesty and peace of our God.

May the God of peace comfort your hearts, bless your souls and strengthen your mind according to His mercy, compassion and grace.

Lord Jesus hear my plea for all who read this, please ask the Father to send us your Spirit in abundance that we may conquer every vestige of the flesh.

Thank you for hearing this prayer.
