WASHED: The Lord loves you and washed you from your sins in His own blood - Revelation 1:5

"And from Jesus Christ, Who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the Prince of the kings of the earth. Unto Him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in His own blood."   Revelation 1:5 NKJV


Song: "THERE IS A FOUNTAIN FILLED WITH BLOOD" by William Cowper.*
There is a fountain filled with blood
  Drawn from Immanuel’s veins;
And sinners, plunged beneath that flood,  
Lose all their guilty stains.

The dying thief rejoiced to see
  That fountain in his day;
And there may I, though vile as he,
  Wash all my sins away.

Dear dying Lamb, Thy precious blood
  Shall never lose its power,
Till all the ransomed ones of God
  Be saved to sin no more.

E’er since by faith I saw the stream
  Thy flowing wounds supply,
Redeeming love has been my theme,
  And shall be till I die.

When this poor lisping, stammering tongue
  Lies silent in the grave,
Then in a nobler, sweeter song,
  I’ll sing Thy power to save.



Praise & Prayer to be washed by the blood of Christ, the Lamb of God.

I praise You, Lord Jesus, for Your precious blood that washes away all of my sins and cleanses me of my guilt. Though my sins are red like crimson, You make them white as snow. As the dying thief on the cross, I, too, confess You as my Lord and ask You to remember me. Holy Spirit, please guide me to someone today who is devastated by past or present sins and feels undeserving of God's grace and mercy. Grant me an opportunity to share this wonderful promise about Christ's love and desire to wash them with His powerful blood. I pray for their healing and salvation in Jesus' mighty name. Amen!

And consider the patience of our LORD [His delay in judging and avenging wrongs] as salvation [that is, allowing time for more to be saved];...
