Bible Verses and Images by Subject
Thank You, Father, that You care for our flesh even more than we do. You have provided the care and nourishment we need for our bodies and for our souls. No matter how well we take care of our bodies, You have made perfect provision through the body of Jesus Christ upon the cross. He made the way for us to enjoy the health of a sanctified body.
We received the cleansing blood of Jesus Christ, which has gently and mercifully removed every spot and wrinkle, so that we can be holy and without blemish—inside and out. We understand that we are cleansed by the Word of God, and we abide in it as we feast upon it. Lord, You have proven Your love for us by the cross, and we continually receive Your saving grace because You nourish and cherish Your bride, just as we nourish and cherish our own flesh.
Thank You for saturating the very depth of who we are with Who You are. We gratefully and humbly receive the riches of Your grace through faith. Thank You for making the way, Lord Jesus. May the wealth of Your Kingdom be continually poured out upon us, Father, so others will see You and come running. In Jesus’ Name we pray. Amen.
