ETERNAL COVENANT

The Bible says, “The blood on the door-posts will be a sign to mark the houses in which you live. When I see the blood, I will pass over you and will not harm you.” (Exodus 12:13)

We have already understood that God’s Word is the key to victory and freedom from bondage.

Prior to the first Passover, God commanded His loved ones to obey the above verse. God specifically instructed the Israelites to observe the Passover as an ordinance for you and your sons forever.

God never changed his mind in regards to the Blood Covenant with His people. The command was effective even after they reached their destination.

The Bible says, in Exodus 12:25 “when you enter the land that the Lord has promised to give you, you must perform this ritual.”

We being devotee of Christ, how much enthusiastically we ought to observe this command!

Our Loving Father replaced the blood of sheep and goats with the most perfect sacrifice ---“The Blood of His Son.”

By the same evidence we are to celebrate His Covenant forever. In ancient times the blood of an animal would protect a family, then, how much more can the Blood of Christ protect us now.

During my personal conversation with Lord and especially at times when we would be travelling, I had a practice of asking God to sprinkle His Precious Blood and protect me and everyone around. It is a practice that I initiated in our family prayer and handed down to my children who are also regular in the recitation.

During the preparation of the public services and for pray-over, it was my regular practice to surrender the crowd, the venue, and the surroundings to be covered with the precious blood of Jesus. It was through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, when I loyally obeyed, God proved the benefit of it.

During the initial stages of my mission, I was asked to pray for a lady, who was on her deathbed. Being new to the locality and unaware of anyone around, I was reluctant to step out and pray. Her relatives insisted that they had a dream that through my prayer she will be healed and that’s when they knocked on my door.

Still reluctant, I began to communicate with my Lord and in a divine vision the Holy Spirit flutter its wings, sprinkling blood on my head and saw a web being formed around me and my right hand became heavy. The Lord inspired me to go, bless her and come back.

As per the Holy Spirit’s consent, I went; prayed-over her and then the precious Blood of Jesus began to work against this evil and sickness. After few hours, she became conscious and doctors regained hope. Soon she was discharged within few days!! Alleluia!! Praise the Lord!!

People often confess and pray that “Jesus the Son of God, who died for our sins” even without realizing the deep value of it.

Do we really mean it?

IN 2 Cor. 4:13, Paul states that “I spoke because I believed.”

We have to believe deeply in the sacrifice. Jesus already made the sacrifice and shed the blood. When we strongly believe then we can speak about it to God in prayer. There is no magical formula other than having faith in Christ Jesus. Alleluia!!

The heights of our misfortunes are not reducing but are increasing immeasurably. By my own experience I can suggest few words which are easy and apt for daily life.

Eternal Father tells us to make use of all the benefits of the Cross of Jesus Christ to defeat your enemy  to gain protection, access, forgiveness, security in God’s grace, redemption, reconciliation, cleansing and sanctification and dwelling in God’s presence in Victory. Alleluia!

How often we forget the great love and care of God!

Let us surrender ourselves to our Heavenly Father who is the Holy Provider and pray:

I surrender my body and mind to you. O Lord! Cover me with your Precious Blood. I believe there is mighty power and protection in your blood. Cover my life partner, my children, my home, my vehicle, my cabin etc. and people around me. Let everyone be covered in your blood which is against all evil.  Thank You Jesus!

I trust in Your name and Power. Praise You! Adore You in union with Mother of Protectors and all the angels and St. Michael. Pray for me my guardian dear in Jesus name I pray to my Father in Heaven. Amen

It is wise to keep in mind that God supplies and it is the work of the human beings to fulfill and obtain the fruits.  God’s grace provides all the tools for our grand victory but the wisdom from the Word of God and obedience to the Holy Spirit helps us to apply the appropriate tools through our believing prayer.

The Word and the Blood work together.  When the anointed person says the Blood of Jesus works.  Praise the Lord!

When you apply the Blood of Jesus, God’s power descends alive and to act. Amen!

Satan makes every attempt to distract and evil disrupt in every act of   service, but the presence of unusual power of Lord accompanies and performs miracles to glorify God above. Praise the Lord.

Testimonies to glorify the Power of Lord Jesus’ Precious blood

·        While the whole crowd was lifting their hands and praising God as a family, I saw an unbelievable sight that the precious Blood dripping drop by drop from the Holy Wound of Lord Jesus. At the same time, respected Sister announced that “Lord is purifying and protecting all of you and the ground you stand by Jesus’ Holy Blood.”

How could I not proclaim God’s mercy and love granted to me by this mighty vision? O Jesus! I will proclaim your divine mercy forever! Amen!

·        In the month of Oct 1995, functioning of my tear glands had ceased. In this serious condition, artificial tears and many lubricant oils were applied. Due to this sickness, generally the cornea of the eye dries up and in most cases sight will be lost. Powerful medicines and famous doctors in entire Bombay had given up on me. All that I had refuge was in a bottle of eye drops from Belgium. Throughout the day, I would seek help and at night I called to the Lord with eyes devoid of tears.  Jesus the good Shepherd of His sheep showed the path Himself and came to me as the way. He led me to the KLWC, and as Sister’s faithful hand touched my head, she said, “God is replacing your tear glands with His Blood.” Suddenly, the eyes which had no tears for the past 4 months, filled and flowed in streams through my cheeks. Thanks be to God! I had the experience of being saved from the depth of death. In a manner that astonished the doctors too, the Lord healed and made me His witness. I offer thousands of praises! Also from the past 4 years, I could neither twist nor turn my neck nor could I lift my hands due to severe pain in the neck. All medical aids were temporary. Through the prayer service held on 9^th March 1996, I received total healing from this trouble. To make my faith firm footed, the Lord has showered numerous spiritual blessings in me. Beneath the right ear, there was a small lump. By revealing the sickness, Lord showered healing into me. The lump had totally disappeared. My Lord, My God! Forever I shall proclaim Your Glory. You are great and patient and abounding in love. Amen
