Precious Blood of Jesus, Day 11



Lord, You shed Your own Blood to expiate all kind of our sins. 

Leviticus 16:15–16 (NJB): He will then slaughter the goat for the sacrifice for the sin of the people, and take its blood inside the curtain, and with this blood do as he did with the blood of the bull, sprinkling it on the mercy-seat and in front of it. 16 This is how he must perform the rite of expiation for the sanctuary for the uncleanness of the Israelites, for their acts of rebellion and all their sins. The purification of the Alter and Mercy Seat of God is very essential. The High Priest Aharon has to slaughter the goat as sacrifice and sprinkle the blood on the Mercy seat. Blood has the power to expiate the sins which is the mercy of God on His people. While sprinkling the blood by Aharon, the sanctuary will be purified from all kinds of uncleanness of Israelites, their sins and their rebellion against God and His commandments. Without shedding Blood there is no expiation of sins. The blood which was shed by Jesus will purify all those who believe in him for the generations after generations. The Body and Blood we consume during the Holy Mass, the Holy communion is the most blessed, the only food man can have on earth which is coming down from Heaven. What a privilege God has given to us through our Lord Jesus Christ, His only begotten Son. 

Lord, you shed your own Blood to expiate all kind of our sins, by giving up your own life as an everlasting sacrifice. Lord, purify me and cleanse me by Your Precious Blood.
