Zechariah 9: 11-12 ‘ As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water. Turn you to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even today do I declare that I will render double unto thee’

• DAILY READING – 1 Peter 2; Jeremiah 33-34; Psalm 135

Recently a movie was released Labeled “the meanest man in Texas.” It is the true story of Clyde Thompson who spent years in prison for murder, but eventually found redemption. The son of a pastor in rural Texas, he was incarcerated for murder when he was only 17 years old. He was placed on death row, and would have been the youngest person to die on the electric chair in Texas. However, six hours to his execution, after he had been given his last bath, eaten his last meal and his hair shaven for the electric shock that would kill him, the Governor of Texas miraculously asked for a review of his case. Eventually his sentence was changed to life imprisonment and he was moved to a hard labour camp. There, with three of his friends he tried to escape, but his three friends got killed in the process and he was the only one that survived. He was later sentenced to serve 3 life sentences and placed in solitary confinement in a cell with hardly any light. For want of what to read he asked for a Bible which was given him. And through reading The Word of God, he encountered Christ and his life was dramatically changed. He was only allowed outside his cell once a week to take his bath, but even in that brief interlude, he began to preach to other prisoners and got some of them converted. Miraculously his three life sentences were reduced and in a short while he was out of prison and began ministering to other inmates. He later became a minister of the Gospel, and served with a prison ministry.

Thompson believed it could only have been the Blood of Jesus and the sacrifice at Calvary that saved him from certain death and turned his life totally around.

Zechariah 9: 11-12 says ‘ As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water. Turn you to the strong hold, ye prisoners of hope: even today do I declare that I will render double unto thee’

The Blood of Jesus can rescue anyone out of any pit. There is no situation so irreparable that the Blood cannot prevail. It doesn’t matter how hopeless  a person’s condition, it doesn’t even matter if the case had been written off. Once the Blood is invoked, victory is sure.

Jesus paid an ultimate price to purchase an ultimate result. He paid the uttermost to save us to the outermost. And to seal the victory, He said ‘It is finished;.

When Jesus said ‘it is finished’ it brought an end to every dominion of darkness. And what that means is that it is finished with every work of darkness in your life. Jesus has paid the price in full, therefore affliction cannot arise a second time. Each time the enemy tries to put any negative situation on you, rise up and declare to him ‘It is finished’. Indeed by the mark of the Blood upon your life, you have become untouchable to every force of wickedness. The only thing that will still keep anyone in bondage today after all Jesus did at Calvary is simply lack of knowledge. That is why God says in Hosea 4:6 ‘My people perish for lack for knowledge’. But when you know the truth of God’s word, you shall be set free.

Therefore  look around you, what is that thing that looks like an impossible situation? Is it a terminal sickness? Is it a hopeless financial situation? Family problems? Whatever the case; it was all paid for at Calvary.  Therefore rise up and declare to that condition ‘it is finished’.

We declare today that the blood of Jesus is against everything contesting our glorious destiny. We raise The Blood as a banner over our lives, our homes, our family and all that concerns us.  Indeed our case is different. We are blood bought, we are blood washed and therefore we are untouchable.

PRAYER: Lord, please help me to understand the amazing power You have made available to me through Your Blood. Thank You Lord for  the practical manifestations of victory in my life today through the  blood in Jesus Name.
