“Blood Speaks”
Reference: Proverbs Chapter 15
The blood of the First Adam speaks for the unbeliever. It’s an abomination unto the Lord.
The blood of the Second Adam speaks for the believer. It’s a delight unto the Lord.
Let’s read:
Proverbs 15:1-8 “A soft answer turneth away wrath: but grievous words stir up anger. [2] The tongue of the wise useth knowledge aright: but the mouth of fools poureth out foolishness. [3] The eyes of the LORD are in every place, beholding the evil and the good. [4] A wholesome tongue is a tree of life: but perverseness therein is a breach in the spirit. [5] A fool despiseth his father's instruction: but he that regardeth reproof is prudent. [6] In the house of the righteous is much treasure: but in the revenues of the wicked is trouble. [7] The lips of the wise disperse knowledge: but the heart of the foolish doeth not so. [8] The sacrifice of the wicked is an abomination to the LORD: but the prayer of the upright is his delight.”
The wicked (the man or woman in the blood of Adam) prays and may fast or make sacrifices. They are an abomination the LORD.
The righteous (the man or woman in the blood of Christ) prays and may fast. This is a delight unto the LORD..
We continue our reading:
Proverbs 15:9 “The way of the wicked is an abomination unto the LORD: but he loveth him that followeth after righteousness.”
Jesus Christ is Righteousness. We follow after Righteousness by walking with Him in His blood.
We continue our reading:
Proverbs 15:10-26 “Correction is grievous unto him that forsaketh the way: and he that hateth reproof shall die. [11] Hell and destruction are before the LORD: how much more then the hearts of the children of men? [12] A scorner loveth not one that reproveth him: neither will he go unto the wise. [13] A merry heart maketh a cheerful countenance: but by sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken. [14] The heart of him that hath understanding seeketh knowledge: but the mouth of fools feedeth on foolishness. [15] All the days of the afflicted are evil: but he that is of a merry heart hath a continual feast. [16] Better is little with the fear of the LORD than great treasure and trouble therewith. [17] Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith. [18] A wrathful man stirreth up strife: but he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife. [19] The way of the slothful man is as an hedge of thorns: but the way of the righteous is made plain. [20] A wise son maketh a glad father: but a foolish man despiseth his mother. [21] Folly is joy to him that is destitute of wisdom: but a man of understanding walketh uprightly. [22] Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counsellors they are established. [23] A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth: and a word spoken in due season, how good is it! [24] The way of life is above to the wise, that he may depart from hell beneath. [25] The LORD will destroy the house of the proud: but he will establish the border of the widow. [26] The thoughts of the wicked are an abomination to the LORD: but the words of the pure are pleasant words.”
The thoughts of the wicked (the man or woman in the blood-seed of Adam) is an abomination unto the LORD.
But the thoughts of the righteous (the man or woman in the blood-seed of Christ) is pleasant unto the LORD because they have the mind of Christ.
We continue our reading:
Proverbs 15:27-29 “He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live. [28] The heart of the righteous studieth to answer: but the mouth of the wicked poureth out evil things. [29] The LORD is far from the wicked: but he heareth the prayer of the righteous.”
The wicked (the man or woman who like Cain remains in the blood of Adam) is far from God. He or she is rejected, and so are his or her prayer requests.
The righteous (the man or woman who like Abel believes in the blood sacrifice) is united with God. He or she is accepted, and so are his or her prayer requests.
We conclude our reading:
Proverbs 15:30-33 “The light of the eyes rejoiceth the heart: and a good report maketh the bones fat. [31] The ear that heareth the reproof of life abideth among the wise. [32] He that refuseth instruction despiseth his own soul: but he that heareth reproof getteth understanding. [33] The fear of the LORD is the instruction of wisdom; and before honour is humility.”
That humility is always the blood sacrifice, the Cross.
Philippians 2:8 “And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross.”
We must likewise humbly die with Him on the Cross so we will be exalted with Him.
Philippians 2:9-11 “Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: [10] That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; [11] And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.”
His blood speaks louder than that of Abel.
Hebrews 12:24-26 “And to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling, that speaketh better things than that of Abel. [25] See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven: [26] Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.”
Which blood is speaking for you? BELIEVE and confess Christ the Second Adam as we’ve revealed Him from the First Adam. Heaven and Earth shakes at His voice, in Christ!
