“Oh, that my actions would consistently reflect your principals!” Psalm 119:5
With my arms outstretched and my head lifted to the sky I close my eyes and wait. I wait for Jesus to open the flood gates of heaven and let His blood rain down over me.
I feel the first drop, then the second and before I know it I am completely covered in the blood of Christ. As it runs down over me I can feel the sin, the impurity, the worldliness fall off me. One by one the heaviness of my heart begins to lighten and I can feel the freedom and Holiness of God seeping in.
The raining of Christ’s blood is beginning to let up and yet I feel a new shower begin to fall upon me. It is lighter and has an aroma that cannot be described. As I lean my head back even more I hear Jesus whisper. “This is my mercy and grace.”
And then it goes away and a warmth greater than the sun surrounds me. I can feel it as it hits my skin and I know it is Him.
He has come all the way down from heaven to wrap me up…in His embrace. As I feel His arms wrap tightly around me my eyes close a little tighter, my heart skips a beat, and it seems as though my feet leave the ground.
I lean my head over and place it on His shoulder and whisper, “Can You stay for a while?” And He replies, “Forever!”
Prayer: Jesus reflecting Your principals can only be done when one has been covered in Your blood. Thank You for washing us white as snow and then filling us with You, so we are able to reflect You. Remind us how precious Your blood is and that we are covered in it and Your mercy and grace daily. I pray that someone today will accept You and be covered in the blood. Amen
