What Happened on the Cross? A prayer for you

The Judean leaders had asked for removal of the bodies on the cross because the Sabbath was approaching. The Roman centurion came to break the legs of Jesus but he was already dead. To ensure Christ was dead, the Centurion pierced his heart. At that moment, blood and water flowed out of Jesus' heart. The water poured out first. Then the coagulated blood oozed out, rolled down His side, onto the ground, and the disciple John bore witness of it (John 19:17-37). 

His heart ruptured. The blood payment was made for atonement of our sins. Jesus said he was our living water. His living water cleansed us  and made  us holy. He paid for our sins with his own blood, not the blood of bulls, and goats. The price paid was the same for everyone. But not every sin is the same. Stealing a candy bar is NOT equivalent to murdering a person. 

Each time we confess our sins and repent, we are forgiven. But Satan attempts to return to us the sins that has been given back to him. He knows how the sacrificial system works. And he is counting on the fact that you do not know. 

Let us follow, our Lord, Jesus’s example. When Jesus was led to the wilderness to be tempted by Satan; Satan presented him with three major temptations. After the third temptation (question). Jesus said, ‘Go away, Satan!” [Matt 4:10a]. You must resist Satan and tell him to go! Not get behind you. Telling Satan to get behind you is allowing him to stay and lurk near you, waiting to tempt you again. As soon as a sinful thought comes, tell him to go. Remember what Peter, the Apostle, said, “Resist the devil and he will flee from you."

"Dear Holy Father, Creator and King of the Universe, our One and only God, may it be your will that we and our love ones become accustom, to praying, reading your Holy Scriptures, and obeying your commandments. Protect us.  Keep us from the power of sin, the power of transgression, and the power of disgrace. Deliver and protect us from the Evil One. Distance us from evil men and wicked companions, and bring us closer to You.  Grant us love, grace, kindness, and mercy in Your eyes and in the eyes of all who see us, and bestow loving-kindness upon us.  May it be Your will, our God, that You rescue us and our love ones today and every day from arrogant men and from arrogance, from an evil man, an evil inclination, an evil companion, an evil neighbor, an evil mishap, evil speech, a harsh trial and a harsh opponent. - whether he is a believer or not a believer.  Heal us, Lord and we shall be healed. Wrap us in Your cloak of righteousness and Your love. Hear our prayer and answer according to your perfect will. Do it for the sake of Your Name. In Yeshua's Name I pray, Amen!
