"In Him (CHRIST) we have redemption [that is, our deliverance and salvation] through His blood, [which paid the penalty for our sin and resulted in] the forgiveness and complete pardon of our sin, in accordance with the riches of His grace." (Ephesians 1:7) Amplified Bible
God’s covenant with people is ratified by blood. The idea of blood seals the agreement between Him and His people. By introducing the principle of blood into their covenant pact, it shows the meeting of two lives - His life and their life, (the life of the flesh is the blood thereof—Leviticus 17:11-14) and that the two parties to the
covenant has become one.
Instead of using the blood of animals, as often practiced in the Old Testament, God introduced the blood of His only Son in the New Covenant. Through the blood of JESUS CHRIST, He seals the Covenant between Him and mankind. Hence, CHRIST is both Son of God (Divine) and Son of man (Human). He shared like the two parties, so He can represent both in the Covenant.
There are substantial proofs in the Scriptures that reveal that the blood of JESUS CHRIST is very powerful. One such proof is the fact that His blood contains the “ZOE” life of God. The breath of God that brought about His conception as a child made Him more than just a human being. At His birth, He was called a child of the HOLY SPIRIT. (See Matthew 1:18)
The Anointing of the HOLY SPIRIT in the life of the LORD JESUS made His blood very powerful. It destroys the power of sin, satan, and curses and brings God’s children into His blessings. The Power of the blood of JESUS never wanes. He is constant. Everything around us is constantly changing. Nothing in the world ever stays the same for very long. Information is changing. Technology is changing. Our currency is changing in value.
Our bodies are changing, and our relationships and our neighborhoods are changing, too. But the Scripture tells us that JESUS is the same, He is unchanging, (Hebrews13:8.) The Power of the blood of JESUS CHRIST still saves people today, just as He did over 2000 years ago when He walked the earth.
HEALING THROUGH THE BLOOD
Several years ago, a friend and I visited a young lady who was very sick. Her illness could not be explained by medical science. Every attempt medically to heal her proved futile.
When we got to her, she was lying helpless on a couch and could hardly sit to speak with us. When we decided to pray with her, the LORD told me to administer the Holy Communion to her. He said He would heal her by the Power of the blood of JESUS. So, I asked for communion elements, which are representations of the Body and Blood of the LORD JESUS. Bread and fruit drink were served, I prayed over them and gave her the communion as instructed by the HOLY SPIRIT.
A few minutes after we administered the communion to her, she stood up from where she had laid and began to walk around the house. The healing power of JESUS CHRIST had gone into her and cleansed all her internal organs through the Power of Communion.
The LORD JESUS CHRIST healed her by the Power of His broken body and the life in His blood. Someone may ask, “Did you have the power to heal her?”
No, I did not have the power to heal her. She was not healed by my power, but she was healed through the power of the Name of LORD JESUS CHRIST. It was the Power of His blood and His name that healed her. The LORD JESUS alone saves, heals, and delivers
people who are oppressed by satan.
The Scripture tells us that our freedom from sin, satan, and curses is made possible through the death of the LORD JESUS CHRIST on the Cross. The blood that He shed on the Cross gives us access to the Supernatural Life of God that is resident in Him. Through the Power of His Blood, we can receive forgiveness of our sins and partake of His Divine Nature.
Grace to you and Shalom always.
JESUS REIGNS!!
