1 PETER 1:18-19 NKJ “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.”

Blood represents life, and Jesus freely gave His life to redeem you. “He has delivered us from the power of darkness and translated us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins” (Colossians 1:13-14). The blood of Jesus was the payment for your freedom. It is the power of the precious Blood of Jesus that has set you free! Sin opens the door for the devil. But Jesus’ Blood cleanses you from all sin and closes the door against the devil, so he cannot have access to you. Jesus’ Blood enables you to stand before God as if sin had never existed. You have no other plea for entrance into God’s presence but the precious Blood of the Lamb. “Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus,” (Hebrews 10:19). The blood of Jesus represents all that God accomplished for you in His great redemption. The power of the blood of Jesus Christ that saves is also the power that gives you victory over the works of the evil one. You can release the power of Jesus’ Blood over adverse situations of your life, by releasing your faith in the sufficiency of that precious Blood through words.
