The Blood of Jesus is Alive


 
All scriptures are taken from New King James Version unless specified otherwise. All words of our Lord are in red. Any italicized words are mine for emphasis, unless the verse is from the Amplified Bible.

The life and flesh

John 6:53, Then Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink the blood, you have no life in you. (54) Whoever eats My flesh and drinks My blood has eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day. (55) For My flesh is food indeed, and My blood is drink indeed. (56) He who eats My flesh and drinks My blood abides in Me, and I in him. (57) As the living Father sent Me, and I live because of the Father, so he who feeds on Me will live because of Me.”

Leviticus 17:11, “For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that makes atonement for your souls. (14) for it is the life of all flesh. Its blood sustains its life. Therefore I say to the children of Israel, ‘You shall not eat the blood of any flesh, (speaking of animal blood) for the life of all flesh is its blood. Whoever eats it shall be cut off’.”

Precious

I Peter 1:2, elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in sanctification of the Spirit, for obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: (18) knowing that you were not redeemed with corruptible things, like silver and gold, from your aimless conduct received by tradition from your fathers, (19) but with the precious blood of Christ, as a lamb without blemish and without spot.
Necessary

Hebrews 9:18, Therefore not even the first covenant was dedicated without the blood. (19) For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of the calves and goats, with water, scarlet wool and hyssop, and sprinkled both kook itself and all the people (20) saying, “This is the blood of the covenant which God has commanded you.” (21) Then likewise he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle and all the vessels of the ministry. (22) And according to the law almost all things are purified with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no remission. (23) Therefore it is necessary that the copies of the things in the heavens should be purified with these, but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifice than these. (24) For Christ has not entered the holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us: (25) not that He should offer Himself often, as the high priest enters the Most Holy Place every year with blood of another- (26) He then would have had to suffer often since the foundation of the world; but now, once at the end of the ages, He has appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself. (27) And as it is appointed for men to die once, but after this the judgment (28) 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.

Conquering/Victory

Revelation 12:11, And they overcame him (the accuser of the brethren) by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.

Reconciling

Ephesians 2:13, But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. (16) and that He might reconcile them both to God in one body through the cross, thereby putting to death the enmity.

Redemptive

Romans 3:24, being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus, (25) 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.

Ephesians 1:7, In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace. (13) In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise.

Acts 20:28, Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood.
Justifying

Romans 5:9, Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him.

Romans 3:24, being justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus (25) whom God set forth as a propitiation through His blood, through faith, to demonstrate His righteousness, because in His forbearance God had passed over the sins that were previously committed.

SANCTIFYING

Hebrews 10:29, Of how much worse punishment, do you suppose, will he be thought worthy who has trampled the Son of God underfoot, counted the blood of the covenant by which he was sanctified a common thing, and insulted the Spirit of grace?

Hebrews 13:12, Therefore Jesus also, that He might sanctify the people with His own blood, suffered outside the gate. (13) Therefore let s go forth to Him, outside the camp, bearing His reproach.

ETERNAL

John 6:53, (Amplified) And Jesus said to them, I assure you, most solemnly I tell you, you cannot have any life in you unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink His blood [unless you appropriate His life and the saving merit of His blood]. (54) He who feeds on My flesh and drinks My blood has (possesses now) eternal life, and I will raise him up [from the dead] on the last day. (55) For My flesh is true and genuine food, and My blood is true and genuine drink. (56) He who feeds on My flesh and drinks My blood dwells continually in Me, and I [in like manner dwell continually] in him.

Cleansing

Revelation 7:14, And I said to him, “Sir, you know.” So he said to me, “These are the ones who come out of the great tribulation and washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb”.
I John 1:6, If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. (7) 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.

Communion

I Corinthians 10:16, (Amplified) The cup of blessing [of wine at the Lord’s Supper] upon which we ask [God’s] blessing, does it not mean [that in drinking it] we participate in and share a fellowship (a communion) in the blood of Christ (the Messiah)? The bread which we break, does it not mean [that in eating it] we participate in and share a fellowship (a communion) in the body of Christ?
I Corinthian 10:25, (Amplified) Similarly when supper was ended, He took the cup also, saying, This cup is the new covenant [ratified and established] in My blood. Do this, as often as you drink [it], to call Me [affectionately] to remembrance.

Heavenly joy

Revelation 7:9-14, “After this, I beheld, and lo, a great multitude, which no man could number… which stood before the throne, and before the Lamb… and they cried with a loud voice saying, ‘Salvation to our God which sits upon the throne, and unto the Lamb’. These are they which came out of great tribulation and have washed their robes and make them white in the blood of the Lamb.”

Access to God

Hebrew 9:7, But into the second part the high priest went alone, once a year, not without the blood, which he offered for himself and for the people’s sins committed in ignorance. (11) But Christ came as High Priest of the good things to come, with the greater and more perfect tabernacle not made with hands, that is, not of this creation. (12) Not with the blood of goats and calves, but with His own blood He entered the Most Holy Place once and for all, having obtained eternal redemption. (18) Therefore not even the first covenant was dedicated without blood.

Hebrews 10:19, Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus, (20) by a new and living way which He consecrated for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh, (21) and having a High Priest over the house of God (22) 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.
Cleansed Conscience

Hebrews 9:14, (Amplified) How much more surely shall the blood of Christ, Who by virtue of [His] eternal Spirit [His own preexistent divine personality] has offered Himself as an unblemished sacrifice to God, purify our consciences from dead works and lifeless observances to serve the [ever] living God?

Peace

Hebrews 13:20, (Amplified) Now may the God of peace [Who is the Author and Giver of peace], Who brought us again, from among the dead our Lord Jesus, that great Shepherd of the sheep, but the blood [that sealed, ratified] the everlasting agreement (covenant, testament), (21) strengthen (complete, perfect) and make you what you ought to be and equip you with everything good that you may carry out His will: [while He Himself] works in you and accomplishes that which is pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ (the Messiah); to Whom be the glory forever and ever (to the ages of the ages) Amen (so be it)

Protection

Exodus 12:13, “Now the blood shall be a sign for you on the houses where you are. And when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be on you to destroy you when I strike the land of Egypt.”

Joshua 2:18, unless you bind this line of scarlet cord (representing the blood) in the window through which you let us down, and unless you bring your father, your mother, your brothers, and all your father’s household to your own home. (6:17) Now the city shall be doomed by the Lord to destruction, it and all who are in it. Only Rahab the harlot shall live, she and all who are with her in the house, because she hid the messengers that we sent. (23) And the young men who had been spies went in and brought out Rahab, her father, her mother, her brothers and all that she had. So they brought out all her relatives and left them outside the camp of Israel.

Isaiah 65:8, Thus says the Lord: “As the new wine is founding the cluster, and one says, ‘Do not destroy it, for a blessing is in it’, so I will do for My servants’ sake, that I may not destroy them all.”

The Blood of Jesus is Alive

The Blood of Jesus purges me of ever defilement of the enemy.

The Blood of Jesus keeps and guards my mind day and night.

The Blood of Jesus prevents deception
and aborts every attempt of the enemy to deceive me.

The Blood of Jesus is my divine covering
and protection against all the fiery darts of the evil one.

Yea, the Blood of Jesus is Alive!
So full of life and grace it perfects that which concerns me-reconciling everything in me to the perfect will of God every day and in every way.[1]
