TOPIC: The Blood Is Powerful (TREM Devotional 5 October 2021)
“And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.” Exodus 12:13 KJV
Beloved, put on your imagination for a minute: The children of Israel were about leaving Egypt. After several plagues and demonstration of God’s power, Pharaoh would not let them go. The last night, God said that they should slay their lamb and put the blood on their door posts and lintels and that when He sees the blood, He will pass over. I guarantee you that many put the blood on their doorpost that night. There is however a difference between people who receive God’s rest and those who don’t.
That night, the Israelites heard screams in the land of Egypt. Some of them would have thought, is this blood capable of stopping the angel of death from visiting our abode?” Do you know that is how some of us operate? There are those who believed and obeyed what God had said completely. For them, once God had spoken, it was settled. All they had to do was to wait for the next instruction. While some were panicking, they were resting. They simply believed that the blood was powerful enough to ward off every enemy.
Beloved, if the blood of the Passover Lamb preserved Israel from the plague, much more will the blood of Jesus avail for you in every area of your life. Our God cannot lie. His Word is final. If He said it, He will bring it to pass. The blood of Jesus avails for the believer. Every promise of God is validated in the blood of Jesus Christ. You can depend on that Word and see God fight your battles. He is not a man that he should lie nor the son of man that He should repent. You have an anchor for your soul. That is Jesus our forerunner, who has passed through the veil. If He cannot fail, then God cannot fail.
