The Blood

I have been sitting with my thoughts resting on the blood of Jesus. I was taking communion one day and as I looked at the cup of juice that represented the blood of Jesus, I heard the Holy Spirit say, “Salvation waited on you.” Salvation is a gift that anyone can receive and it has been waiting on any one of us who is lost. The more I meditated on the blood the more overwhelmed my heart became.

We were all so full of sin and there was absolutely nothing we could do to get out of sin. Even if  we tried to do everything right we are not capable of doing so because we have the mind of the enemy. Before accepting Jesus Christ, our father was Satan. How dreadful is that thought, but it is so true. We were born in sin and shaped in iniquity. Before believing in Jesus Christ, Satan was the only father we could ever have! Jesus told the Jews that if they were not followers of him, then Satan was their Father.

There was a huge debt to be paid for us to be freed from the shackles of Satan. The blood of a righteous one with no sin was required to pay the debt. How could we ever free ourselves? That is why the blood of Jesus is so important. He came to earth, lived a sinless life, died on a cross and paid the price for our sins with His blood so we could be free. When we accept Him as our Savior we are coved by His blood and the grips of Satan are released. 

Scriptures says “and they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony, and they loved not their lives unto the death.” (Revelation 12:11) Our lives are free in the blood of Christ Jesus! Amen!
