Sweet-Smelling Savor

Read:  Psalm 99 / Proverbs 18 / Leviticus 4 / Ephesians 5

 

Psalm 99:6,8 ~ Moses and Aaron... and Samuel among them that call upon his name... Thou wast a God that forgavest them, though thou tookest vengeance of their inventions.

Proverbs 18:10 ~ The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it, and is safe.

Leviticus 4:32-35 ~ And if he bring a lamb for a sin offering, he shall bring it...without blemish.  And he shall pour out all the blood... and it shall be forgiven him.

Ephesians 5:2 ~ Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering... for a sweetsmelling savor.

 

How graciously our God forgave

His erring servants He corrected. 

He was their Tower, strong to save,

To whom they ran and were protected. 

 

The promised Seed of Abraham

Was slain that He might grant us favor. 

Behold God's sacrificial Lamb

Who offered His sweet-smelling savor!
