Prayer based on Leviticus 9

Lord God, any offering that we could have invented to satisfy the demands of Your righteousness would surely have been an offense against You. We could never have made atonement for ourselves or for Your church. Where would we be without the work of Your Son? Surely ceremonial animals cannot satisfy You. Our great High Priest has made full atonement for us. This was planned from before the foundation of the world. In the earthly days of Your Son, these eternal plans were accomplished. When He ascended in clouds of glory, He raised His hands in blessing over us. In Him we are truly blessed.
