Leviticus 5 - Praying God's Word

 

Please read Leviticus 5.

Meditate on verse 19.

 

It is a guilt offering; he was

certainly guilty before the LORD.

 

In order to be right with God, one had to bring Him, not only burnt, grain, peace, and sin offerings, but also guilt offerings.  Sins requiring a guilt offering are listed in Leviticus 5.  Are you guilty of any of the following?

 

·      Refusing to tell the truth (v. 1)

·      Touching a dead animal (v. 2)

·      Touching human uncleanness (v. 3)

·      Thoughtless speech (v. 4)

·      Unfaithful actions (v. 15)

·      Doing anything God said not to do (v. 17)

 

Guilty! Guilty! Guilty!  Can you even imagine how many rams were required to cover all of the guilt?  Thankfully the blood of Jesus not only covers our sins; it also covers our guilt, so we can live for Christ without a guilty conscience.

How much more will the blood of Christ,

who through the eternal Spirit offered

 Himself without blemish to God,

 cleanse your conscience from dead

works to serve the living God?

—Hebrews 9:14

 

Pray Leviticus 5:5 and 18 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).

“LORD, I confess that I am

 guilty in all of these sins.

Jesus, You are my guilt offering. 

Thank You for making atonement (a covering) for me

concerning the errors in which I sin.  

Thank You for forgiving me.

LORD, may __________ make You

the guilt offering for their sin.

In Your name, Jesus~”
