“On the seventh day the Cohen is to examine him again, and if the sore has faded and hasn’t spread on the skin, then the Cohen is to declare him clean-it is only a scab, so he is to wash his clothes and be clean.”
Leviticus 13:6 CJB
There are a few things we can see here! First: on the seventh day, seven is the number of completion. On the seventh day we rest!
“Remember the day, Shabbat (seventh), to set it apart for God.”
Exodus 20:8 CJB
God created the world in six days and rested on the seventh and so should we! When we are forgiven, we should rest in His salvation! The second things we can be reminded of is that we all have scars from the sins we’ve committed, not to dwell upon, but instead to remind us of how great Adonai is, and that He forgives!
“He has removed our sins from us as far as the east is from the west.”
Psalm 103:12 CJB
Today, let’s rejoice in the fact that we are made clean by the blood of Yeshua! So don’t dwell on the scars of our past! Instead let them remind us of how great our God is!
Have a blessed day resting in Adonai!
Shabbat Shalom!
