THE OVERCOMING POWER IN THE BLOOD OF JESUS

Revelation 12:7(And there was war in heaven: Michael and his angels fought against the dragon; and the dragon fought and his angels, 8 And prevailed not; neither was their place found for him any more in heaven. 9 And that great dragon was cast out, that old serpent called the Devil, and Satan, which decieveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. 10 And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. 11 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).

There is an overcoming power in the blood of Jesus; Satan loved only himself and he thought Jesus Christ would be selfish, so he didn’t know Jesus was going to sacrifice himself for us. The battle was tense in heaven; he tried to steal the throne of God but he was defeated and cast down to us here on earth but what he didn’t know was that a weapon had been handed over to us to overcome his accusation and wickedness. How does the devil accuse humanity? He does it by causing them to sin against God because he knows there is law and punishment for the offenders and even if God tries to overlook it, he will remind Him. The sacrifice of Jesus Christ stops him from showing his ugly self in the presence of God again as he does during the time of Job (Job 1:6-7). He is walking to and fro causing mayhem and disturbing people, he is doing his job of stealing, destroying and killing. He is still deceiving people that do not know the limit of his power even right now. The good news is he can no longer deceive you because you are an overcomer. Even though he cannot appear before God again he still accuses men because the law is already in place. The only way to overcome sin and Satan who is the father of sin is through the blood of Jesus. Man entered into serious trouble through disobedience; sin got hold of us and destroyed us; the accuser of brethren is here walking to and fro the earth looking for who to destroy because that is his major ministry (John 10:10). God in His infinite wisdom has given us the blood of Jesus to overcome him. The blood of Jesus can only work for those who are the children of God. Our Faith in Jesus Christ and his sacrifice is what makes us an overcomer. We can only claim to be born again only when we have accepted Jesus Christ as our Lord and savior. This scripture below has told us how we can overcome sin and Satan. 1 John 5:3(For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. 4 For whosoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith. 5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus Christ is the Son of God). Sin deprives us access to God and our inheritance but the blood of Jesus is available to cleanse us from sins and every form of unrighteousness (1 John 1:8-9). His blood speaks forgiveness on our behalf. His blood taking regularly or pleading over our conscience regularly will help us to stay away from sin because it is not by power, nor by might (Zechariah 4:6). If you are face to face with temptation, all you need to do is to call on his blood for your escape. As you continue to take a dose of his blood regularly, it will be transfused into your blood and flush out your sinful nature and infuse in you the nature of Christ. The blood of Jesus flowing through your veins is what makes you an overcomer. The DNA of everyone is found in his or her blood; so if you are born of God then you have the DNA of Jesus in you and that’s an overcomer’s DNA. The most important thing is for you to know who you are in Christ. As many that believe and receive him he gave them power to become the sons and daughters of God (John 1:12); and he that is born of God overcomes the world. Friends, in case you are not yet a child of God, please do not miss this opportunity to become His son or daughter today by accepting Jesus as your Lord and savior.

Lord Jesus, I come to you today, I am a sinner, and I cannot help myself, forgive me my sins, and cleanse me with your precious blood. Deliver me from sin and Satan to serve the living God. Lord Jesus, I accept you as my Lord and savior. Now I know I am Born Again, Amen.
