May 11 -- "Atonement: Cleansing from Sin"

Today's Reading: Leviticus 16 

"Atonement: Cleansing from Sin"

Today’s verse refers to the Day of Atonement, a special day set apart for My people Israel to make atonement for their sins. On this day, the high priest would enter the Most Holy Place in the Tabernacle and make offerings to Me on behalf of the people. This was a solemn and important day, as it symbolized the forgiveness and cleansing of sins.

As your Heavenly Father, I want you to understand the significance of this verse for your life today. While you may not be required to observe the Day of Atonement as the Israelites were, the principle of atonement and cleansing is still relevant to you. Just as the high priest made offerings on behalf of the people, I have provided a way for you to be cleansed from your sins through my Son, Jesus Christ.

When you confess your sins and ask for forgiveness, you are made clean before Me. This is not something that you can earn or achieve on your own, but rather it is a gift that I freely offer to you through the sacrifice of my Son. Through him, you can be reconciled to me and experience the fullness of my love and grace.

I want you to recognize the importance of confession and repentance in your life. When you confess your sins to me and turn away from them, you are cleansed and made new. I want you to live a life that is characterized by humility and a willingness to admit your faults and seek forgiveness.

Remember, my child, that I love you and desire for you to experience the fullness of life that comes from being in relationship with me. Confess your sins to me, seek forgiveness, and walk in the freedom and joy that comes from being made clean before me through the sacrifice of my Son, Jesus Christ. He is your Atonement.
