Day 5 5 is the number of grace and I am sure thankful for Gods grace. Again 5 out of 7 now in Leviticus chapter 7 looking at the Sacrifice of Thanksgiving Fifth , the sacrifice of thanksgiving was to be offered with the sprinkling of the blood of the peace offering (verse 14). This shows that all of our thanksgiving is based on the shed blood of Jesus Christ for our sins. My spirit of thanksgiving is possible because my sins have already been forgiven and because my soul’s eternal destiny has been secured by the blood. I can say with Paul, “Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift” (2 Corinthians 9:15 ). Because of that gift—Jesus Christ—I can be thankful for everything else that comes my way. God’s gift of salvation makes it possible for me to endure and even be thankful for everything that God allows to come my way.
