***Experiencing the Blessing of Being-Brought Nearer to God
Scripture Reading: (Ephesians 2:13) “But now you have been united with Christ Jesus. Once you were far away from God, but now you have been brought near to him through the blood of Christ.” (NLT)
Reflection: Peter teaches that Christ suffered "that He might bring us to God." The purpose of the cross was reconciliation. Jesus did more than forgive our sins; He restored our relationship with the Father. Because of His sacrifice, we now have access to God's presence and the privilege of calling Him Father.
Personal Challenge: Spend extra time in prayer, thanking God for the relationship you now have with Him.
Prayer: Dear heavenly Father, thank You for bringing me nearer to You through the blood of Your only Son Jesus Christ...in the name of Jesus I pray, Amen!
