The Passover is a powerful experience for the people of Israel and they have a story to share with generations of families and the work of the blood continues to this day. It is a powerful connection to my story on how necessary it is to tell everyone of their need for a Saviour.
Moses called for all the leaders of Israel and said to them, “Each of you is to choose a lamb or a young goat and kill it, so that your families can celebrate Passover. – Exodus 12:21 GNT
I knew a family that refused to talk to their children about their need for Jesus for they felt they were not aware of the fact they even had sin. I believe they flattered themselves that they had good natures and they still needed to develop a sense of wrongdoing. If we bolster our thoughts of innocence and not recognize sin we have lost the opportunity of introducing Jesus.
When sin happens in my life I need it pointed out sometimes. I pray that the Holy Spirit will work conviction in my heart and conscience. I pray that He will do the same for my grand children and the same for our neighbours.
I am pretty sure that flimsy Christianity is not good for anyone. We all need to be pardoned through the precious blood of Jesus. If I hesitate to even suggest that I am not in a place where I need a Saviour, I am pretty sure I will not desire a remedy. I rarely talk to others about the demise of sin but I know it is something that motivates me to restore my relationship, through repentance, every single day. My task is to be tender and yet true. There is a day coming where an account will have to be given and I pray that the Holy Spirit will work in my heart until it becomes tender and that my mind can see my need for salvation and for those in my circle of relationships.
Prayer is only the voice of faith to God through Christ – Jonathan Edwards
