Revelation 12:11 ‘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’

DAILY READING Luke 14:25-35; Genesis 26; Psalm 19

Nigel Benn is ranked  as one of the greatest British boxers of all times. He competed in boxing from 1987 to 1996 and was known for his fearsome punching power and aggressive fighting style, which earned him the nickname “The Dark Destroyer”. He won the WBO middleweight title in 1990, The WBC super-middleweight title in 1992, and the Commonwealth middleweight title in 1998. Outwardly, Benn appeared very successful and seemed to have it all; yet inwardly, he was miserable and suicidal. He became a victim of his fame as he drank, took drugs, womanized and lived a loose lifestyle. However, despite all his indulgences, he found no pleasure and ended up suffering from more depression. His life spiraled out of control to the point that he even attempted suicide in his car.

However, one day he was invited to attend a Christian men’s event. There, he had a dramatic encounter with Jesus, that completely turned around his life. He got born again and afterwards, spent one full year in solitude, studying the Bible day and night, renewing his mind in Christ. Today Benn is free from all his addictions and is an entirely new person. He now actively pursues a ministry of bringing restoration to men through the power that is in the blood of Jesus.

Indeed the blood of Jesus has the power to break every yoke and bondage and give a man a complete change of story. By the blood you can experience a total turn around in every area of your life. There is indeed deliverance power in the blood of Jesus.

Revelation 12:11 says ‘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’

We overcome sin and every bondage of the enemy through the power that is in the blood of Jesus. The blood of Jesus has awesome power to forever change anyone exposed to it. The blood has the power to deliver you from any depth of sin and temptation.

As we approach the end of this age, the power in the blood is needed now more than ever before. The last days are days of fierce spiritual battles on earth. The tempo of temptations  and trials are already on the increase. And you cannot afford to watch the enemy buffet you or tamper with your testimony. You must therefore engage the weapons of warfare made available to us by God. There is no room for being a spiritual weakling in this battle. Everyone born of God is a warrior. As a believer you can’t afford to be spiritually lazy. You must fight the good fight of faith and lay hold on eternal life. Therefore begin to engage the power of the blood against every assault of hell.  Don’t let life’s situations or circumstances beat you down or make you bow. No matter what comes your way you are more than a conqueror. Jesus has assured us that the gates of hell shall never prevail against His church. It doesn’t matter the battle you are facing today, there is power in the blood to overcome every trial and temptation. Learn to release the weapon of the blood against everything troubling your destiny.  Indeed by the blood of Jesus, you are a certified winner. Truly by the blood, your victory is assured in every conflict in Jesus Name.

PRAYER:  Lord I thank You for the power that is in the blood of Jesus. Today as I begin to engage the weapon of the blood against every challenge, I know that my victory is continually assured in Jesus Name.
