TOPIC: Your Redemption Is Precious (TREM Devotional 28 February 2025)
“Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:” (1 Peter 1:18-19 KJV)
MESSAGE:
What you were redeemed with is more than money. Our redemption was purchased with something costly, and it is a sin to trample on it. Your redemption is precious! Sacred was the blood that was shed to pick you from the dungeon of sin and establish your feet on the rock. It is a sin to trample on it through unbelief. Don’t handle it casually because it cost Christ His life through the blood He shed.
When Christ appeared as the High Priest of the good things to come, He entered through the greater gate and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands. That is to say, not of this world, or of things created in this world. And not through the blood of animals either, but through His own blood. He entered in once and for all, into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us. The blood is so powerful that He only needed to apply it once. That is why the moment you invite Jesus into your heart, you are delivered instantly because no power of sin can stand against it. You have been eternally redeemed. In other words, you are not going to hell. There is a “paid for”, a special seal on your life.
The book of Hebrews 10:19 says the blood gives us boldness to enter the throne of God. You do not need any intermediary to go into the holy of holies. The blood ushers you in. The Word of God tells us to come boldly. It is time, therefore, to get rid of every of every form of fear. Jesus stands before the Father every time, with the blood saying, Father, I paid the price for them.
Child of God, even if you sin, do not allow the devil diminish the price that was paid. We have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ, the Righteous.
