The Power of His Christ Has Come

"Then I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, 'Now salvation, and strength and the kingdom of our God, and the power of His Christ has come, for the accuser of our brethren, who accused them before our God day and night, has been cast down. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they did not love their lives to the death.'"
(Revelations 12:10,11)

"...and the power of His Christ has come..."

The same power that raised Christ from the dead is the same power that dwells within us. It is the power of the Holy Spirit.

How is it that the Holy Spirit has come and now dwells within the hearts of the Believers?

It is by the shed blood of Jesus Christ! His blood sanctifies us, cleanses us, sets us apart and creates a place of righteousness for the Spirit of God to dwell. The blood of the Lamb clothes us in power and righteousness! Forgiveness of sin flows through His veins and sets us free from the clutches of the enemy whose accusations are rendered null and void.

Acknowledge the precious blood of the Lamb! Speak the words of testimony! Tell of the faithfulness of your God! Pick up your cross and follow Him!

And that, my friends, is how we overcome.

Thank You,Lord for making a way for us to overcome the accusations of the enemy. Thank You for releasing us from his grip, his destruction - yes, even his eternal death. I ask, Lord, that we never take the precious blood of Jesus for granted. May we always consider the sacrifice and never become comfortable with the suffering You endured for us. Thank You for the Holy Spirit and His power that resonates within Your children for truly, we are never alone. Our strength comes from You, O Lord.
