There’s only one way to be reconciled to God

And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven. And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled in the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and un-blameable and un-reproveable in his sight:
Colossians 1:20-22 King James Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE(s)…
There’s only one way to be reconciled to God! – Through Jesus! There is NO other way, there are not many ways to God and Heaven only one- through Jesus. Here we see that the “Blood” of Jesus has reconciled us to God, not our works or anything WE have done or could do. His Blood has first satisfied the broken Law (Rom 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;) and remitted our sin. Then secondly it has cleansed our guilty conscience. We can see this in (Hebrews 9:14 ) ; ” How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?” If we understand the power of the “Blood” of Jesus we have no reason to have a guilty conscience or to have conscientiousness of past sin any longer once we have received Jesus as our Lord and Savior. And we have no reason to try and do good works to receive our salvation. He’s already paid the price in full for us, just receive it!

MY PRAYER…
Holy Father, Most High God, thank You for reconciling me to You through the “Blood ” of Jesus. Thank You Lord for the powerful cleansing power of His Holy Blood, able to wash me “white as snow”. Thank You also Lord for purging my conscience of dead works and of a sin nature. I thank You Father that I am now the righteousness of You in and through Christ Jesus. In Jesus’ name I give You ALL Glory and Honor forevermore.
Amen
