Covered

Colossians 1; Hebrews 10; Romans 12; 2 Corinthians 5

Lord Jesus, for my eyes and ears and understanding, you are the very image of the invisible God, our Father in Heaven. The law was a shadow of the good things, but you, Lord, are the fulfillment of the promises of our father.

You came, Lord, and took on flesh, and did the will of the Father. You ended the first covenant and established the last. You offered your body, Lord Jesus, and through that sacrifice, I have, once for all time, been sanctified.

You offered one sacrifice for sins forever and sat down at the right hand of God. Now you wait till your enemies are made your footstool. By this one offering, you have perfected, forever, me, and all those who are being sanctified.

Holy Spirit, you testify these truths to me. I know your word fills my heart and my mind. I have been transformed, as you renew my mind and lead me.

I am forgiven, and my sins and lawless deeds you remember no more. I am in Christ, and I am a new creation. The old things have passed away, and now, everything in me is new. I am covered with your righteousness, Lord Jesus!
