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 1:26-56; Ezekiel 34; Isaiah 58
The Ebola outbreak in 2014, was a period of desperation to the medical world and a race against time as the disease spread rapidly. During this period, the World Health organisation[WHO] called a number of emergency meetings. After reviewing the status of all the potential experimental therapies and vaccines, one of the conclusions they came to was to treat victims with the blood of survivors. The health organization released a statement, stating that treating Ebola patients with blood transfusions from survivors of the disease should be the immediate priority. They arrived at this conclusion after observing how effective it had been in combating the disease.
One of the first Ebola victims to be treated in the United States was a medical missionary Dr. Kent Brantly, who contracted the virus while working with Samaritan’s Purse in Liberia. However, before he returned to America, he received a blood transfusion from a 14-year-old Liberian boy who had been cured of Ebola. A few days after Dr. Brantly began treatment at Emory University Hospital in Atlanta, he was declared virus free. In the weeks that followed his recovery, Dr. Brantly donated his blood to three other Americans who had contracted Ebola, and they equally recovered. These and other successful cases, proved that treating patients with the blood of survivors was a sure way of curing the disease. The immune system of those who had survived had created antibodies that specifically killed the virus and kept it from coming back. These antibodies had become empowered to destroy Ebola. Therefore when transfused into an Ebola patient’s body, they helped the immune system fight off the deadly virus.
Today, though Ebola has been brought under control, there is a disease which has continued to ravage humanity for many centuries. It is the disease of sin. And in all of eternity only one person’s blood can be able to overcome and combat this disease, and that is the blood of Jesus Christ. The Blood of Jesus, not only overcomes sin, but also destroys its consequence, such as sickness. When we are infused with His Blood, it destroys every spiritual virus in our system.
1 John 3:8 says ‘“..For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil.”
The blood of Jesus is designed to demolish every stronghold of sin and sickness. There is wonder-working, miracle-healing power in the Blood of Jesus that destroys all infirmities. It is the light that shines in the darkness and the darkness cannot comprehend it. Just as light and darkness cannot coexist, anywhere the Blood of Jesus is present every evil must flee or be destroyed.
In Mathew 28, Jesus said all power has been given unto Him in Heaven and in earth. And because the life is in the Blood, it means His Blood contains the ultimate power in the universe. It is the all powerful blood. Therefore when His Blood is resident in you, it means destruction and annihilation to everything contrary to God’s will for you.
Acts 10:38 says ‘How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with The Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with Him.”
Jesus has a mission to destroy every evil in our lives. Remember that your body is the temple of The Holy Ghost and we saw what Jesus did to those who were trading in the temple. In the same way when His blood indwells in you, with His whip, He drives out everything buying and selling in your system.
Therefore let us partake of the Blood today, in the consciousness that we are releasing a weapon of mass destruction into our system against every works of darkness. The Blood of Jesus in us is a spiritual immune system no disease can dare. His Blood is power that transforms us from victims to victors. Everywhere the Blood is applied, fire falls and victory is assured. Indeed By His blood we are overcomers and more than conquerors in every situation of life.
PRAYER: Lord, I thank You for the victory I have through Your Blood. Today I invoke Your precious blood against everything hindering the manifestation of Your Glory in my life. Indeed by the mystery of the blood I have truly overcome in Jesus Name.
