His Blood = His Life
When Jesus’ blood was shed in the Garden of Gethsemane, at the whipping post, with the soldiers who plucked out His beard and crushed the crown of thorns on His head, and at the cross, the life of Almighty God was being poured out all over this earth for you and me to be free.
That blood is the life of God. The life is in the blood. That life of God cleansed us of all sin, of all sickness and disease, of all bondage, of all poverty, of all anxiety and frustration, of everything that came with the curse.
The very life, the very essence of God Himself was released on this earth for you and me to have and enjoy while we are here. His life is here for us. It is ours. We have been cleansed and set free of all that satan brought about by stealing Adam’s authority and relationship with God his Father. We are clean through God's Word, Jesus Christ and His shed blood. I have to repeat this: We are clean.
Well, then, what brings impurities into our lives if we are clean? Let me use an example that we all understand. Our bodies are made clean when we wash them with soap and water. But there are germs and bacteria here on this earth that make us dirty again. And we wash again.
Even so, there are germs and bacteria in the spirit realm called demonic forces, principalities and powers, rulers of the darkness and wicked spirits in heavenly places. It is their job to present trouble to us in the form of sickness and disease, poverty, lack, want, brokenness. They know that we have been cleansed and made whole through the blood of Jesus. We are no longer broken. Our lives are whole in our spirits, our souls and our bodies.
The spirits also know that the acceptance of trouble comes with the mouth, what we speak. These evil spirits, therefore, put pressure on us to speak what is wrong with us. It is our job to put pressure on them by speaking the word of God to stay cleansed and free of the curse. Jesus told us that we are clean through the word. He was telling us that the Word of God spoken out of our mouths will keep us free.
Every day there are opportunities to speak contrary to God’s Word. A pain comes. A symptom comes. The checkbook looks empty. The job is no more. The children look like they are straying. The marriage looks like it is failing. We have a choice at each of these points to speak what we see in the natural and agree with it or to speak what God’s Word says about us. The blood of Jesus has cleansed us of all that sin and death brought. The Word of God keeps us cleansed.
How powerful! THERE IS LIFE IN THE BLOOD OF JESUS! THERE IS LIFE IN THE WORD OF GOD! Let’s speak His Word and keep the life flow going strong in our lives.
