Things the Blood of Jesus Does
The blood of Jesus has the power to release the grip of the
great curse, the ramifications for that are immeasurable. I have provided a
list below, along with a single verse for each item, to get you started in your
journey through the richness of each glorious truth.
1. My debt is paid, once and for all: “So Christ
was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He
will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation.” (Hebrew 9:28).
2. I am justified: “Much more then, having now
been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him.
Romans5:9
3. I am forgiven: “In Him we have redemption through His
blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace” Ephesians
1:7.
4. I am spared from God’s wrath: “Much more then,
having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through
Him. “ Romans 5:9.
5. I am being spiritually healed; one day even my
flesh will be replaced with an incorruptible body: “…who Himself bore our sins
in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sin, might live for
righteousness—by whose stripes you were healed.” 1 Peter 2:24
6. I am spiritually alive: “Then Jesus said to
them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man
and drink His blood, you have no life in you.” John 6:53.
7. My judgment has been satisfied and I am at
peace with God: “But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for
our iniquities; the chastisement for our peace was upon Him, and by His stripes
we are healed.” Isaiah 53:5.
8. The bloodstream of His people Israel will be
purged. “For I will cleanse their blood that I have not cleansed: for the
Lord dwells in Zion” Joel 3:21.
9. I am cleansed: “But if we walk in the light as
He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus
Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.” 1 John 1:7
10. I have the power to overcome the enemy: “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.” Revelation 12:11.
11. I am no longer under the curse of the law:
“Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us
(for it is written, “Cursed is everyone who hangs on a tree” Galatians 3:13.
12. I have been reclaimed from the enemy: “In Him
we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the
riches of His grace.” Ephesians 1:7.
13. I am no longer a stranger to the covenant of
promise: “…that at that time you were without Christ, being aliens from the
commonwealth of Israel and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no
hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus you who once were
far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ.” Ephesians 2:12-13.
14. The final act of public expiation has been made on
my behalf: “For the life of a creature is in the blood, and I have given it to
you to make atonement for yourselves on the altar; it is the blood that makes
atonement for one’s life.” Leviticus 17:11.
15. I have been moved from the enemy’s kingdom
into the kingdom of God: “Having disarmed principalities and powers, He made a
public spectacle of them, triumphing over them in it.” Colossians 2:15.
16. I have gained the unmerited favor of God: “In
Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to
the riches of His grace.” Ephesians 1:7.
17. I have been declared righteous: “For He made
Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the
righteousness of God in Him.” 2 Corinthians 5:21.
18. I have been justified (just as though I had never
sinned): “being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in
Christ Jesus, whom God set forth as a propitiation by His blood,
through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God
had passed over the sins that were previously committed…” Romans 3:24-25.
19. I am able to come close to God: “But now in
Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of
Christ.” Ephesians 2:13.
20. I can participate in the sweet communion of
remembrance of His sacrifice: “Likewise He also took the cup after
supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood, which is
shed for you.” Luke 22:20.
21. My redemption will never perish: “Knowing that
you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver or gold,
from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers,
but with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without
spot.” 1 Peter 1:18-19.
22. Jesus testifies on my behalf that I am clean: “…and
from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the
ruler over the kings of the earth. To Him who loved us and washed us from our
sins in His own blood and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father,
to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.” Revelation 1:5.
23. I am free: “Stand fast therefore in the
liberty by which Christ has made us free, and do not be entangled again with a
yoke of bondage.” Galatians 5:1.
24. I am protected from judgment: “that you shall
say, it is the Passover sacrifice of the Lord, who passed over the
houses of the children of Israel in Egypt when He struck the Egyptians and
delivered our households.’” So the people bowed their heads and worshiped.” Exodus
12:27.
25. I am freed from a conscience defiled by guilt: “let
us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts
sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water.” Hebrew
10:22.
26. I am no longer condemned: “There is therefore
now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according
to the flesh, but according to the Spirit.” Romans 8:1.
27. I have been separated from the world and
declared holy (wholly) to God: “I have been crucified with Christ; it is no
longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now
live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave
Himself for me.”
28. I can proclaim total victory: “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.” Revelation 12:11
29. I can enter boldly into the holiest of
holies…and live. “Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by
the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way which He consecrated for us,
through the veil, that is, His flesh, and having a High Priest
over the house of God, let us draw near with a true heart in full
assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our
bodies washed with pure water.” Hebrew 10:19-22.
30. I have further revelation of who God is: “who
being the brightness of His glory and the express image of His
person, and upholding all things by the word of His power, when He had by
Himself purged our sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high…” Hebrew
1:3
There is no circumstance in life to which the blood of Jesus isn’t key to God’s releasing, protecting, resolving power, whether it’s removing the potential of confusion, overcoming the impact of rebellion, breaking the torment of fear, or the shame of the past. When we “plead the blood,” we are to do so in the understanding sense, with the firepower of the supernatural, and on the basis of the body of evidence that through the blood of Jesus Christ, all hell has been broken in its power, all sin neutralized, the power of death overwhelmed, and every human need paid for once and for all.
