Morning
If his offering is a burnt sacrifice of the herd, let him offer a male
without blemish; he shall offer it of his own free will. . . . Then
he shall put his hand on the head of the burnt offering, and it
will be accepted on his behalf to make atonement for him.
God will provide for Himself the lamb for a burnt offering. § Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world! § We have been sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. § A ransom for many.
No one takes it from Me, but I lay it down of Myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. § I will love them freely. § The Son of God . . . loved me and gave Himself for me.
He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. § He made us accepted in the Beloved.

Evening
Great is Your mercy toward me, and You have
delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol.
Fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.
Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; you are Mine… I, even I, am the Lord, and besides Me there is no savior… I, even I, am He who blots out your transgressions for My own sake; and I will not remember your sins. § Those who trust in their wealth and boast in the multitude of their riches, none of them can by any means redeem his brother, nor give to God a ransom for him—for the redemption of their souls is costly. § I have found a ransom. § God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ.
Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.
