No Entry Permit For The Destroyer - Because of The Blood
Then Moses summoned all the elders of Israel and said to them, "Go at once and select the animals for your families and slaughter the Passover Lamb. Take a bunch of hyssop, dip it into the blood in the basin and put some of the blood on the top and on both sides of the doorframe. None of you shall go out of the door of your house until morning.
When the LORD goes through the land to strike down the Egyptians, He will see the blood on the top and sides of the doorframe and will pass over that doorway, and He will not permit the destroyer to enter your houses and strike you down.
Exodus 12:21-23.
When the LORD goes through the land to strike down the Egyptians, He will see the blood on the top and sides of the doorframe and will pass over that doorway, and He will not permit the destroyer to enter your houses and strike you down.
Exodus 12:21-23.
I wonder if we truly understand the authority and divine protection we have as Believers. I wonder if we truly utilize that authority and consciously walk in that protection. I wonder if our lives and God's Church would be different if we appropriated all the spiritual resources at our disposal in the daily occurrences of life. Particularly, I wonder if we truly ponder over the power we have through the Blood of Jesus. As I reflect on this passage, I don't think we consciously remind ourselves of the power and protection we have as children of God. Knowledge is great, but a continual application of that knowledge is what makes the difference in situations.
Moses reminded the Israelites that, "When the LORD goes through the land to strike down the Egyptians, He will see the blood . . . and will pass over the doorway, and He will not permit the destroyer to enter your houses and strike you down."
The blood of the lamb at Passover, which was symbolic of the Blood of the Holy Lamb of God who was slain on the cross, was a bulwark against the activities of the destroyer. The presence of the blood meant the entry permit had been taken away from the destroyer.
We must take a fresh look at the power of the Blood of Jesus and consciously walk in the victory we have through the Blood. We have forgiveness through the blood, we have access to God's throne through the blood, and our homes are spared from the activities of the enemy because of the Blood of Jesus.
This means: Our bodies must be spared from the destructive attacks of the enemy. Our jobs, homes, children, marriages, and relationships must be spared. God's Church must be spared.
Because of the Blood of Jesus, none of the weapons against us shall prosper. Surely, they will gather, but not by the Lord, just as the Bible says in Isaiah 54(KJV). The Spirit of God will lift up a standard against him. That is a divine promise.
There is no entry permit for the Enemy because of the Blood of Jesus.
Question: What if we radically believed this and lived in righteousness and obedience?
The Enemy must give up every false permit he has obtained against us.
The Blood of Jesus has made him permitless!

Prayer: Jesus, I thank you for Your Blood. Please help me to consciously appropriate the victory I have through Your Blood. Amen.
