PJP2 PROLOG 160217a PROLOG Focus Leviticus 14:53 & Hebrews 10:19-25....

Psalm 51:10-12 (NIV/emphasis added/jaj)...."Create In me A Pure Heart, O God, And Renew A Steadfast Spirit Within me.  Do Not cast me From Your Presence, Or Take Your Holy Spirit From me.  Restore To me The Joy Of Your Salvation And Grant me A Willing Spirit, To Sustain me."....

PJP2 PROLOG POST 160217a - Leviticus 14:53 (NIV/emphasis added/jaj)...."Then he is to release the live bird in the open fields outside the town.  In This Way he will Make Atonement for the house, And it will Be Clean.”....

If you've not spent much time reading Leviticus, it is interesting to note that in Leviticus Chapters 13 through 15, we discover the first Medical 'Text' (Note - From God's Word it would seem our first medical providers were dermatologist and internal medics/jaj).  Also, in Leviticus Chapter 14, we find our first reference to the bioenviornmental engineer profession (YAHWEH gives Guidance on dealing with 'mildew' or mold/jaj).  What I Hear The Holy Spirit Sharing with regards to all this is that internal desire for us to be clean, on all levels (physically, mentally and Spiritually).

It may seem some what elaborate and dramatic for our Lord and Savior, His Holy Spirit, and God The Father to Share the entire Old and New Testament to Prove the Point that Bottom-Line/Up-Front (BLUF) there is ONLY One Way for us to be Totally Cleansed of the impurities we encounter in our Journey through this Life.

Permit me, if you will, to Share via His Inspired Word the conclusion of this point made throughout Leviticus - that is God's Ultimate Provision for our Atonement/Reconciliation with Him....

Romans 3:10-12, 21-26 (NIV/emphasis added/jaj)...."As it is Written: 'There Is No one Righteous, Not Even one; There Is No one who Understands; There Is No one who Seeks God. All Have turned away, they Have together Become worthless; There Is No one who Does Good, Not Even one.'”....  Oh how this resonates with our world, as we read/hear our daily news.

(Romans 2:21-26)...."BUT Now apart from The Law The Righteousness of God Has Been Made Known, To Which The Law and the Prophets Testify.  This Righteousness Is Given Through FAITH In Jesus Christ to all who Believe.  There is no difference between Jew and Gentile, For ALL have sinned And FALL Short of The Glory of God, And All Are Justified Freely By His GRACE Through The Redemption That Came By Christ Jesus.  God Presented Christ As A Sacrifice of Atonement, Through The Shedding of His Blood—To Be Received By FAITH.  He Did This to Demonstrate His Righteousness, Because In His Forbearance He Had Left the sins committed beforehand unpunished— He Did It To Demonstrate His Righteousness At The Present Time, So As To Be JUST And The One Who Justifies those who Have FAITH in Jesus."....

BLUF, Team, There is One and Only One Atonement Sacrifice that God's Provided us.  Through His Son, our Lord Jesus, God The Father has Secured our Salvation, and our Redemption/Reconciliation with Him by The Life, Death on His Cross, Blood Sacrifice that Paid the Full Price of our sin and His Resurrection Conquering Death Once and For All.

Thus my PJP2 PROLOG Prayer for 160217 is a Paraphrase of Prayer and Praise employing His Holy Spirit's Inspired Word as found in Hebrews 10:19-25 (NIV/emphasis & paraphrase adde/jaj)....O Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit, Father God, Help us, Therefore, as brothers and sisters in Your Family of Believers, Since we Have Confidence to Enter Your Most Holy Place, Made Possible Only By Your Precious Blood, Lord Jesus.  Thank You, Holy Spirit, That By Your New And Living Way Within us, You Have Opened For us, Through The Righteous Curtain, That Is, our Lord Jesus' Body.  Father God, we Praise You that You have Given us a Great Priest over Your House, O God.  Lord Jesus, we Pray, Let us Draw Near to You With A Sincere and Clean Heart.  Holy Spirit, Thank You for Your Full Assurance That Faith in our Lord Jesus Brings.  Father God, we Praise You that By Your Son's Loving Grace, we are Constantly Having our Hearts Sprinkled to Cleanse us From our guilty conscience.  Lord Jesus, we are Amazed and Humbled that By Your Sacrifice, we Are Continuously Having our bodies Washed With Your Pure and Living Water.  Holy Spirit, Help us to Hold Unswervingly to This HOPE we Have  Professed.  Father God, we Know that You Who Have Promised Is Faithful.  Lord Jesus, Let us Consider How we May Spur one another On Toward Love And Your Good Deeds.  Holy Spirit Protect us and Encourage us Not to give up Meeting with one another in Your Way.  Lord Jesus Inspire us to Encourage one another Especially as The Day of Your Second Advent approaches.  In Your Holy Name we Lift Up our Prayers....Amen/Amen...jajtogether, as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging one another—and all the more as you see the Day approaching.
