The ‘blood’ is present throughout Scripture, but what does Christ’s blood mean to us? His blood redeems us. 1Peter 1:18-19 says, “Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:” The blood of Jesus brings us into fellowship with God. Ephesians 2:13, says, “But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ”. Without the blood of Christ, we are a long way from God. By nature, we are at war with God; and we can only come to God on His peace terms—the blood atonement. Colossians 1:20 tells us “And, having made peace through the blood of His cross, by Him to reconcile all things unto Himself”. The blood of Jesus cleanses. Not only does it remove the punishment of sin, it removes the pollution.

The blood of Jesus Christ the Son of God cleanses us from all sin (1 John 1:7). His blood gives power over the devil. Revelation 12:11 says, “And they overcame him [Satan] by the blood of the Lamb …” The devil doesn’t want you to learn about the power of the blood. He hates it because he is defeated by it. Hallelujah! Praise God for the blood of the Lamb. I pray in Jesus’ name that the blood-washed saints of God would rise up and take a stand against the enemy in demonstration of the power of the blood of Christ. In the name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
