Three things the blood of Jesus does

Luk 22:20Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.

I grew up in a time where we often heard preaching about the blood, and sang about the blood. Songs like “There is power in the blood”, “Under his blood” and “The blood that Jesus shed for me” was songs that touched and stirred the heart like nothing else. Today in modern Christianity, there is little focus and preaching about the cross or the blood. We need to preach and sing it like ever before!

There are three things that we can liken our natural blood to the Spiritual blood of Jesus. Three things that shows the importance of having his blood flow through us every day.

1.    The blood Heals

a.    Whenever we get a cut or a wound on our body, the blood flows to it to heal the wound. It is to prevent infection to make it worse and hurt us.

b.    When someone or something hurt us, and we feel pain and disappointment. We need to take it to the cross, and there his blood will heal us and help us to forgive. It is to prevent anger, bitterness or jealousy to hurt us

2.    The blood protects

a.    When bacteria’s or viruses enters into our bodies, the white blood cells rushes to it and fight the enemies of our bodies.

b.     Everyday we are exposed to unclean thoughts, and attacks on our mind and faith through all we see and hear. We need to pleed the blood over our minds. We specially need to pleed the blood over our children’s minds for all the trash they hear in School and in social media. Lord let your blood protect their mind and faith.

3.    The blood brings LIFE

a.    It is the blood that transports the life-giving oxygen to our cells. Without the blood our cells will not receive this life-necessary oxygen.

b.    We need the blood of Jesus to transport his Holy Ghost into our lives. Before we can receive his power, we must pay a visit to the cross. A life in repentance and in Holiness opens the flow of his Holy Ghost power in our lives.
