... and the blood of Jesus, His Son, cleanses us from all sin. — 1 John 1:7 NLT The Power of the Blood by Louie Giglo, from How Great Is Our God Have you ever thought about why the Earth needs the moon? Do you know how whirlpools form, what makes something glow in the dark, or the incredible properties of blood? Enjoy today's devotion from How Great Is Our God, the all-new follow-up to the bestselling devotional Indescribable, with 100 new devotions that showcase the greatness of our Creator.
If we are living in the light, as God is in the light, then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, cleanses us from all sin. — 1 John 1:7 NLT
Blood. Some people faint at the sight of it, but you couldn't live without it!
Blood is made up of red and white blood cells floating in a liquid called plasma.
The red blood cells are a kind of delivery system. They carry oxygen and other nutrients to all the cells in your body, and then they carry away all the waste, like carbon dioxide. Blood is pumped through your body by the heart. Your heart is one strong muscle, and it's fast too — it can pump blood to every cell in your body in less than a minute! Blood travels through tubes called blood vessels. The vessels that carry blood away from your heart are called arteries, while the ones that carry it back to your heart are called veins. The white blood cells are the warrior cells. They work together with your immune system to fight off germs and diseases.
Your blood is pretty powerful and important stuff! But the blood of Jesus is even more powerful. Because He is the Son of God, lived a perfect life, and never sinned — not even one single time — His blood can carry your sins away and give you the forgiveness you need to live forever with God. All you have to do is believe and obey Him. When Jesus gave His life for you on the cross, it was both terrible and beautiful—terrible for the way Jesus was hurt, but so beautiful for the gift of love and forgiveness and heaven He gave to you and me.
Lord, it's hard to think about Jesus' death on the cross, and I'm so sorry for all He suffered. But I am so grateful for His blood that washes my sins away.
HOW GREAT!
Platelets are another very important part of your blood. (You say it the way it looks: PLATE-let.) When you get a cut or scrape, these little guys spring into action, sticking together to stop the ow of blood — called clotting. They not only keep blood inside your body but also keep germs out!

What Our Readers Are Saying This book is the second one I have purchased for my grandsons. They love nature and science, so putting that together with biblical truths is perfect for their growing relationship with God. Love the illustrations too! — Judy R. I bought the previous one and my grandson loved it I love this devotional so much I almost wanted to keep it for myself instead of giving it to my grandson. The pictures are great, really colorful and the few stories I did read were well written and I even learned a lot from them..... I highly recommend this!— Debbie T.
What Our Readers Are Saying I bought this for my 10 yr. old grandson. He absolutely loved it! Each devotion is fairly short. Easy to read before bed. Interesting scientific facts , prayers and a great way to connect with God. He wants to become more familiar with using the Bible. What a great gift, Thank You. — Pam P. This book is awesome for children who are always looking for things and answers. My son loves it and I am also into it because it explains some great things and challenges others. A very good way to answer questions.— Felixa K. Bought this for my science-loving 8 year old and he loves it! It's something he looks forward to daily to expand his knowledge and see how nature glorifies God.— Daisy C. Get a closer look
