Today I want to share Joseph Prince's "Grace Inspirations" devotional!
THE BLOOD ALONE SAVES
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…
On the night of the first Passover, many of the children of
Israel were probably anxious. Imagine one Israelite asking another nervously,
“Did you hear that the angel of death is passing through tonight?”
“Yes! We were told to put the blood of the lamb on the
doorposts of our home and everything would be all right. Is that true?”
Like the Israelites, you might be wondering, “Can the blood
really protect me? How much blood do I have to put on my doorposts? Will the
angel of death get me if I am fearful?”
My friend, don’t add to God’s conditions. He said, “When I
see the blood, I will pass over you and the plague shall not be on you to
destroy you.” He did not say, “When I see the blood, plus your understanding,
efforts, obedience, faithfulness and refusal to give in to fear, then I will
pass over you.”
It is the blood of Jesus alone that delivers you. If you
think that it is because of your faith, then you will always be wondering, “Do
I have enough faith?” No my friend, it is His blood alone that saves. And when
God sees that you see that it is the blood alone that saves, He calls that
faith in the blood, and every plague will pass over you!
God wants you to know that it is Jesus’ blood alone that
saves because every time you think that your deliverance depends partly on God
and partly on you, you will not have a settled peace in your heart. But when
you know that it is the blood alone that saves, you will have an unshakable
peace.
It was the blood that saved the children of Israel from the
destroyer on that Passover night and it is still the blood that saves today.
And all you need to do for the blood to avail is to say, “Father, I thank You
that the blood of Jesus alone covers me and my family. No evil, plague or
disaster will befall me or my family because of the blood!”
AMEN! It is completely and ONLY because of the Blood of JESUS that we have the right to be born again! HE paid the price of OUR sin so that WE cou9ld become HIS! There IS no greater love than this! THan HIS! AMEN! Here is Hillsong with "Like Incense (Sometimes By Step)":Shalom in Him!
