12 For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD.

Message
The Blood of Jesus Christ is an expensive weapon made available to every believer in Christ. Our Lord Jesus Christ paid such a high price to secure this weapon for us; a price so high that the Bible refers to this weapon as precious. 1st Peter 1:19 says: “But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:”

Our Lord Jesus Christ paid such a high price to secure this weapon for us; a price so high that the Bible refers to this weapon as precious. 1st Peter 1:19 says: “But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:”
As you understand the worth of this weapon, you will appreciate the
power it can unleash on the enemy. Little wonder the kingdom of darkness
cannot stand the Blood of Jesus. To eliminate all doubt, a loud voice
expressly declared from Heaven the victory of the saints over Satan
himself through the Blood of Jesus, in 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.”
“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.”
The Blood
of Jesus is not only there to cleanse you from sin but also to protect
and defend you. However, if you are not a Christian, although the Blood
is available, it is not for your use. If you belong to the devil as
described in John 8:44, you cannot use the Blood to overcome him. The
Blood must first translate you to the kingdom of light by cleansing and
washing away your sins before it can become a weapon in your arsenal.
A particular couple wondered how their money kept disappearing from
their house. The man suspected it was his wife who was stealing his
money. However, his wife also began to experience the loss of her money
as well. At some point, she began to wonder the kind of husband she had,
who would give her housekeeping money and later sneak in to steal it.
When they could not bear it anymore, they both accused each other of
stealing the other’s money. It was then they discovered that something
strange was happening to them, and they came to me. Realizing that it
was the devil at work on their finances, I told them to always say “I
cover this money with the Blood of Jesus” before keeping it in any part
of their house. It worked! From that moment, there was no incident of
strange disappearance of their money. Cover the baby in your womb with
the Blood of Jesus. Cover all your children at home and abroad with the
Blood of Jesus. Cover your business and customers with the Blood of
Jesus. Remember to always plead the Blood of Jesus. It is a weapon the
devil cannot resist.
Key Point :
If you are in right standing with God, anything you cover with the Blood of Jesus is truly safe.
If you are in right standing with God, anything you cover with the Blood of Jesus is truly safe.
