The Speaking Blood

"But you have come.....to Jesus the mediator of the new covenant and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than the blood of Abel." Hebrews 12:22a,24.

About 2 thousands years ago when Jesus was crucified, there were nails on His palms and feet, crown of thorns on His head, a spear struck His side. These brought out the Blood. The Blood is the seal of the new covenant whereby everyone who repents and accepts Jesus has direct and unhindered access to the throne of Grace.

Apart from this, the Blood has a voice. The voice of redemption, deliverance, healings, salvation and power. This was compared to the blood of Abel. Remember that the voice of the blood of Abel was loud enough for God to have heard from the ground and then compelled Him to avenge Abel (Genesis 4:10). But the voice of the Blood of Jesus is stronger and speaks better things. Therefore don't let your heart be troubled, for there is the Blood that speaks for you.

That is why you as a child of God cannot be defeated by the forces of hell. That is why there is hope and victory for you inspite of all the challenges you are facing. That is why there is healing for your body, your home, your career and relationships.

As you celebrate this Easter weekend, I ask the Blood to speak restoration into all areas of your life. Let the Blood speak destruction into the camp of your enemies. Let the Blood speak healing to your body. Let the Blood speak life into every good thing that is dead in your life.

Happy Easter!
