– Achievers\u2019 ANTIDOTE And ONSLAUGHTS To The Enemy Of Our FAITH –<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

2 Corinthians 2:14 <\/strong>\u201cNow thanks be unto God, which always causes us to triumph<\/strong> in Christ, and makes manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Revelations 12:10-11 <\/strong>\u201c<\/em>And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb; and by the word of their testimony;<\/strong> and they loved not their lives unto the death.<\/em>\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Exodus 12:1-5, 7, 12-13<\/strong> <\/em><\/strong>\u201cAnd the LORD spake unto Moses and Aaron in the land of Egypt, saying, This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you. Speak ye unto all the congregation of Israel, saying, In the tenth day of this month they shall take to them every man a lamb, according to the house of their fathers, a lamb for an house:<\/strong> And if the household be too little for the lamb, let him and his neighbour next unto his house take it according to the number of the souls; every man according to his eating shall make your count for the lamb. Your lamb shall be without blemish, a male of the first year: ye shall take it out from the sheep, or from the goats: . . . And they shall take of the blood, and strike it on the two side posts and on the upper door post of the houses,<\/strong> wherein they shall eat it. . . For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD. And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you,<\/strong> and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Greetings<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Shalom & Kingdom greetings! May the grace, peace, joy and love of God possess you in the precious, awesome and redemptive name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, Amen. It gives me great pleasure and joy to welcome you into this triumphant month as I present to you this MARCH 2010 AFD edition.<\/strong> I pray and trust that this month\u2019s <\/strong>AFD<\/strong> will bring you to a place of triumph in every circumstance of life that have limited you and questioned the essence of your FAITH TESTIMONY <\/strong>in Christ Jesus, AMEN.<\/span><\/p>\n

Firstly, I want to thank God for all the testimonies and responses of appreciation that have been coming in as a result of the JANUARY<\/strong> and <\/strong>FEBRUARY 2010<\/strong> <\/strong>edition. Thus, indicating how much of God\u2019s word through the AFD<\/strong> is reaching out for the good of mankind especially in the household of FAITH<\/strong>. Secondly, may the good Lord be earnestly praised and magnified for all the inspirations, revelations and empowerment attributed to us – to share the word of His grace to all and sundry and to the household of FAITH across nations, races, genders, generations and denominations.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Preamble<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

I hope that this MARCH Edition \u2013 Triumphing by the Blood of the LAMB \u2013<\/em><\/strong> will grant you and every achiever the enabling grace to triumph in all that they desire and trust God to bring about in their lives. More especially, in dealing and triumphing over all the set backs and fears of becoming or achieving the set goals and dreams in all that pertains to life and godliness \u2013 2 Peter 1:1-4.<\/strong> The Blood of the Lamb \u2013 Christ –<\/em><\/strong> <\/em><\/strong> is the antidote and onslaught to triumph and endorse your daily victory and triumph in all that be in life for all God\u2019s people and mankind in general.<\/span><\/p>\n

Triumph is the perception and feeling of great happiness resulting from a victory or major achievement. It also means the act and condition of being victorious. Being raised up in a typical African tradition family and in an environment where the blood spill of animal sacrifice to appease the gods was dominance and a life style until God\u2019s salvation came to my family, I can boldly inform you how powerful the matter of the blood means to life and how efficacious the blood of Christ is to win victorious over all odds of the enemy.<\/span><\/p>\n

All sorts of covenants and contracts have to be endorsed by the blood, and life is in the blood indeed \u2013 Leviticus 17:11, 14<\/strong> \u201cFor the life of the flesh is in the blood<\/em><\/strong>: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul . . . For it is the life of all flesh; the blood of it is for the life thereof: therefore I said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall eat the blood of no manner of flesh: for the life of all flesh is the blood thereof: whosoever eateth it shall be cut off.<\/em>\u201d<\/strong> (See also Deuteronomy 12:22-24).<\/strong> This scriptures, indicates and signifies how vital and authentic the issue of triumph in the blood is to our daily life affairs today. The blood is the divine arranged plan to completely smash and render powerless forever the strongholds of satan and his cohorts against us. The efficacious blood of Christ Jesus our Lord and Saviour accomplished the deed for our FAITH, to guarantee us eternal victory and triumph. Amen.<\/span><\/p>\n

Triumphing In Every Place \u2013 Your Promised in God\u2019s WORD<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2 Corinthians 2:14 <\/strong>\u201cNow thanks be unto God, which always causes us to triumph<\/strong> in Christ, and makes manifest the savour of his knowledge by us in every place.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Matthew 28:18-20 <\/strong>\u201c<\/em><\/strong>And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying,<\/em> <\/em>All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.<\/em><\/strong> Go ye therefore, and teach all nations,<\/strong> baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo,<\/strong> I am with you alway,<\/strong><\/em> <\/em><\/strong>even<\/em><\/strong> <\/em><\/strong>unto the end of the world.<\/em><\/strong> Amen.<\/em>\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Mark 16:15-20<\/strong> \u201cAnd he said unto them,<\/em> <\/em>Go ye into all the world<\/em><\/strong>, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover. <\/strong><\/em>So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.<\/em><\/strong> And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

I have come to know that when people succeed or fail in life, they talk about it. Sometimes so much \u2013 like the society I live in \u2013 <\/em>people are more prone to speak negative than positive about issues in life in order to be accepted or to avoid being acclaimed as a fanatic. And I have chosen to achieve and succeed in life and compel all to achieve and succeed because our God is an achiever. Knowing full well that our Saviour and Lord Jesus Christ in His triumph over our enemy and cohorts was and is a day to day discussion in betrayal until this day. Christ was spoken of and is still being spoken of by people and enemies alike. They do this while challenging the authenticity of our REDEMPTION<\/strong> \u2013 Matthew 28:11-15<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Triumph in every place is the promise of God to all according the holy writ of 2 Corinthians 2:14 <\/strong>and<\/strong> Matthew 28:20b.<\/strong> Jesus gave a command and not advice for great achievement and success. He promised to be there until we surely triumph. We see in the scriptures that as the disciples \u2013 which we are by His grace \u2013<\/em><\/strong> <\/strong>who later become apostles, walk in obedience to achieve triumphantly. The Lord is with them in every place, where they go, working with them and accompanying their doings with miraculous signs – (Isaiah 1:19; Mark 16:15-20)<\/em><\/strong> and<\/em> Joshua 1:1-4<\/em><\/strong> \u201c. . .<\/em><\/strong> the LORD spoke unto Joshua the son of Nun, Moses’ minister, saying . . . now therefore arise, go over this Jordan, thou, and all this people, unto the land which I do give to them, even to the children of Israel. . . Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you . . .<\/strong> From the wilderness and this Lebanon even unto the great river, the river Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and unto the great sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your coast.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

It was this kind of knowledge that apostle Paul, writing to the Corinthians Church in 2 Corinthians 2:14,<\/strong> indicated. That TRIUMPH<\/strong> in EVERY PLACE<\/strong> is God\u2019s intention in Christ Jesus for all people of all nations, even as said by Apostle Peter in Acts 10:34-36<\/strong>. When you gave your life to our Lord Jesus Christ, a new DNA default was implanted or engrafted into you \u2013 hence you are called a new creation \u2013 2 Corinthian 5:17; Galatians 6:14-15.<\/strong> The old life default of defeat, failure and regret consciousness, mentality and such like was completely washed and cleansed away and a new default of triumph, victory, success and such like was then downloaded and transferred into your being <\/strong>\u2013 1Thesselonians 5:23; Colossians 1:13-14; Ephesians 1:7<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

I challenge you to consistently run the TRIUMPH browser as your DEFAULT in every aspect of your life.<\/strong> By doing this, you triumph over all that you set your feet on, just like Joshua in Joshua 1:3-4.<\/strong> You activate your FAITH in order to become an ACHIEVER, creating an opportunity and avenue of greatness by the act of enacting a triumph default consciousness. Triumph need not be a wish but a deliberate resolution and defined plan, purpose and pursuit of God from when Adam fell until Christ came for all mankind. Triumph is not a wish but a designed and arranged plan of God for you. But if you are going about browsing failure, defeat, pity and setbacks and such like, you can\u2019t live triumphantly.<\/span><\/p>\n

Beloved, do you live in the consciousness of being a victor, a winner, and a success. Do you live in the consciousness of yesterday\u2019s failures, mistakes, defeat, setbacks and being an under achiever? Are your conscious acts in all respects as a result of God\u2019s sayings and words or other sources? Is God\u2019s word your default browser or is it the media \u2013 television newscast, newspapers publications, internet complexities, family traditions, society norms and self-belief your default. Is it your spouse, parents or children or friends whose browser is your default?<\/span><\/p>\n

I make bold to declare in Christ Jesus that until one makes God\u2019s word a conscious default browser in their daily life, TRIUMPH in every place will be eluded. It is a choice to live all your life complaining, murmuring and blaming people and circumstances for your limitations. It is also a choice to arise and shine in the awesome, amazing and majestic beauty of the glorious plan of God for you to triumph everyday in everyplace as inscribed in Jeremiah 17:12 <\/strong>\u201cA glorious high throne from the beginning is the place of our sanctuary.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You\u2019re DNA IN CHRIST \u2013 Gives The Right To Triumph<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

2 Corinthian 5:17<\/strong> \u201cTherefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Galatians 6:14-15<\/strong> \u201cBut God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world. For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

2 Corinthians 1:1<\/strong> \u201c<\/em><\/strong>Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ<\/strong> by the will of God, and Timothy our brother, unto the church of God which is at Corinth, with all the saints which are in all Achaia:\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

The word \u2013 DNA \u2013<\/strong> speaks of genetics, and is defined as \u201cDeoxyribonucleic Acid.<\/strong> This is the main constituent or component of the chromosomes of all organisms, and is the material that transfers genetic characteristics in all life forms – like for like\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

In life, people will say or make comments like \u2013 I am acting or behaving in this way because it\u2019s in my blood or DNA and it runs in the family. Meaning if one is poor, the likelihood is that all will be poor or good percentage are going to be poor in the family or lineage no matter how much they try to make a difference. If one died young or through a deadly disease or by car accident or any other strange happening, that all may likely die in the same ways as it runs in the family. This kind of notion becomes a great worry when you hear a supposedly redeemed born again child of God making similar statements when they are in crisis or facing some challenges.<\/span><\/p>\n

Beloved, it is irrelevant whether or not you have a family history of divorce, cancer disease, childlessness, late marriages, poverty, never-do-well and many others, the day you gave your life to Jesus, a new you for a new dawn was born and began to come to be. The scriptures say in 2 Corinthians 5:17<\/strong> <\/strong>and <\/strong>Galatians 6:14-15<\/strong> and <\/strong>2 Corinthians 2:14<\/strong> that if any man comes to Christ, such becomes a new personality, the old personality and Adamic family history is gone, a new you is come to be in Christ Jesus. There is a spiritual exchange which is spiritually vital and legal in life that takes place as a result of that simple act of being born of God. It is for this exactness of FAITH that in the epistles writings that the apostles for example will start in their writings in a particular manner as shown in<\/em> 2 Corinthians 1:1<\/em><\/strong> <\/em>and<\/em> Colossians 1:1<\/em><\/strong> and <\/strong><\/em>Ephesians 1:1<\/em><\/strong> <\/em><\/strong>and <\/strong><\/em>Philippians 1:1<\/em><\/strong> <\/em><\/strong>and <\/strong><\/em>1 Peter 1:1<\/em><\/strong> and <\/strong><\/em>James 1:1<\/em><\/strong> <\/em>and <\/strong><\/em>Jude 1<\/em><\/strong> <\/em><\/strong>etc. <\/em>That is, <\/em><\/strong>by using the phrase \u2018of Christ\u2019 <\/em><\/strong>or<\/em> \u2018of Jesus\u2019 <\/em><\/strong>or<\/em> \u2018of Jesus Christ\u2019<\/em><\/strong>. The use of the word \u201cof\u201d<\/em><\/strong> indicates the done deed of a new DNA as the default at work in their life. Hence they were assured and insured to have triumph in life and ministry. This help to indicate why the apostles refused to reckon their knowledge of Christ in a fleshly – humanly –<\/em><\/strong> <\/em>manner as most people would have love to do religiously as indicated in \u2013 2Corinthians 5:16.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In the same spirit as that of the apostles, I want you to know that by coming into the beloved-hood of God, your life was redeemed, translated and transformed into the image of Christ in order to triumph in every place be it in the \u2013 valleys, mountains, hills, crooked roads and rough places of life – (Galatians 3:13-14; Colossians 1:13-14; Isaiah 40:3-5).<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Beloved friend, it\u2019s irrelevant the history of your life or family. Now that you are born of God, you have a new identity and the power to put an end to the enemy\u2019s intended plan. You need to devolve yourself of the past and develop a new consciousness of triumph mentality and consciousness as a transformed child of God. You need to do a rework in your mind set as in indicated in the scripture:<\/span><\/p>\n

Romans 12:1-2 <\/em><\/strong>\u201cI beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.\u201d<\/strong><\/em> <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You have to reprogram your life browser into a new default by the word of God. For your FAITH on your new DNA determines your triumph in life as says in 1 John 5:4-5<\/strong> \u201cFor whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our FAITH.<\/strong> Who is he that OVERCOMETH<\/strong> the world, but he that BELIEVETH<\/strong> that Jesus is the Son of God?\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

In God\u2019s browser, the default enables you to triumph, live victoriously and overcome in challenges no matter how tense the matter may be. I believe that you can end that family history of set back, fears, limitations, abuse, divorce, poverty, indecent marital relationships and foundations, poverty and laziness etc by inclining to God\u2019s default browser which enables you to win.<\/em> For you can now do all things through Christ \u2013 DNA default \u2013<\/strong> that strengthens you \u2013 Philippians 4:13.<\/strong> For your DNA of triumph is in the blood of the Lamb \u2013 Lord Christ Jesus – Amen.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The Blood of The LAMB \u2013 The DNA of TRIUMPH<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Exodus 12:12-13<\/strong> \u201cFor I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD. And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you,<\/strong> and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Psalm 105:37-38 <\/strong>\u201cHe brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not one feeble person among their tribes. Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them fell upon them.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Revelation 12:11 <\/strong>\u201cAnd they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb<\/em><\/strong>, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

John 1:29-30 <\/strong>\u201c<\/em><\/strong>The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.<\/strong> This is he of whom I said, After me cometh a man which is preferred before me: for he was before me\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Thanks to God for the blood of the Lamb! The scriptures tell us that the Lamb of God is Jesus Christ. He is, that was slain and who shed His blood for our triumph and victory in life. The blood of Jesus is the grand finale to answer and to deal with all the life affairs that come our way. It is by the blood of the lamb in a figure that the first Church \u2013 the Israelites\u2019 \u2013<\/em><\/strong> obtained their deliverance from the bondage and rigour of the land of Egypt. There also, they obtained their prosperity as they obtained their deliverance by the blood of the lamb \u2013 Psalm 105:37-38; Exodus 12:29-36.<\/strong> The blood of the lamb is the verdict, antidote and onslaught that can end the perpetrated works and activities of satan and cohorts pursuit in the life of all mankind especially in those where demonic sacrifice and dedications have taken root. (You can order my website study on \u201cRedeeming The Land\u201d Teaching Series)<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The blood of the Lamb is the flag bearer, banner and signpost that can thwart, divert and end all the fiery darts and works of the enemy of our joy in our FAITH. The blood of the lamb is the Highway Code and traffic control board to all that wants to get into your life. It indicates red light and diverts all the satanic and cohorts advances and gives green light to all about God concerning you in life and godliness. There is no amber light for stand still; it\u2019s either red to divert or green to welcome in and allow all goodness to go through into your life.<\/span><\/p>\n

The blood of the Lamb \u2013Christ Jesus \u2013<\/strong> is the DNA of your life of TRIUMPH. Where there is No Blood of Christ \u2013 <\/strong>There is <\/strong>No TRIUMPH!<\/strong> For whatever is not of the blood is not of God say the Holy Scriptures. There is power in the blood. The efficacy of the blood is what satan and cohorts can\u2019t fathom. It is the finale cure to his grip on me. The blood has delivered me and set my family free from the grips of satanic bondage. When you daily activate the blood as your default browser, your daily triumph becomes certain. You need to ensure, insure, secure and authenticate the vitality and legality of your life, faith and works of your hand by the blood, if you don\u2019t want the enemy and his cohorts to encroach into all your life plans, purpose and pursuit. The Blood is your DNA of TRIUMPH.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The Efficacious Blood of the LAMB \u2013 The Reason for TRIUMPH <\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

HEBREWS 9:11-22 <\/strong>\u201cBut Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building; Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.<\/strong> For if the blood of bulls and of goats, and the ashes of an heifer sprinkling the unclean, sanctifieth to the purifying of the flesh: How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?<\/strong> And for this cause he is the mediator of the New Testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance. For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator. For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth. Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood.<\/strong> For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people, Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you.<\/strong> Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry. And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

The Blood of Christ Jesus is EFFICACIOUS!<\/strong> It\u2019s by this act of efficacy that we can boast of triumph. The believer in Christ must come to the understanding that the blood produces <\/em><\/strong>\u2013 effective and effectual –<\/em><\/strong> result no matter the level of the situation and what failures others may have thought of the blood in their human concept. The blood is not just a part of ceremony to be observed religiously as is often done in the act of Holy communion sacrament services but a wonderful tool to live our Faith life on, the FAITH in our Saviour and Lord Christ Jesus, by whom we are victorious and triumphant.<\/span><\/p>\n

Let\u2019s us now examine some scriptures to authenticate the efficacious and effectual power in the blood of the lamb \u2013 Christ Jesus:<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

1. The Blood is efficacious – Because of its DELIVERANCE Power<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Colossians 1:13-14 <\/strong>\u201cWho hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:<\/strong> In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins\u201d<\/em>.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Exodus 12:7, 12-13<\/strong> \u201cAnd they shall take of the blood, and strike it on the two side posts and on the upper door post of the houses,<\/strong> wherein they shall eat it. . . For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD. And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you,<\/strong> and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

2. The Blood is efficacious – Because of its REDEEMING Power<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

1 Peter 1:18-21<\/strong>\u201cForasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: <\/strong>Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Galatians 3:13-14<\/strong>\u201c<\/em>Christ hath redeemed<\/strong> us from the curse of the law<\/strong>, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith.<\/em>\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

3. The Blood is efficacious – Because of Its RECONCILIATORY Power<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Ephesians 2:11-19 <\/strong>\u201d<\/em><\/strong> Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and strangers from the covenants of promise, having no hope, and without God in the world: But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ.<\/strong> For he is our peace, who hath made both one, and hath broken down the middle wall of partition between us; Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace; And that he might reconcile both unto God in one body by the cross, having slain the enmity thereby: And came and preached peace to you which were afar off, and to them that were nigh. For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father. Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

The Blood of The Lamb \u2013 Is Your FAITH TESTIMONY To Frame & Shape Your World<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Revelations 12:10-11 <\/strong>\u201c<\/em>And I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night.

\n

Hebrews 11:6 <\/strong>\u201cBut without faith it is impossible to please him:<\/em><\/strong> for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Hebrews 11:3 <\/strong>\u201cThrough faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God,<\/em><\/strong> so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Romans 10:17<\/strong> \u201cSo then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

In life we are constantly contending for our FAITH and TESTIMONY with diverse manifestation of the enemy\u2019s craftiness and cunningness in the pursuit of our God given dreams, aspirations and desires. The scriptures of 1 Peter 5:8; 1 Timothy 1:18-19; 1 Timothy 6:12 <\/strong>and<\/strong> 2 Corinthians 10:3-6<\/strong> indication that we are engaged in life battles and this battle is of the enemy working tirelessly to rob us of the reality of our FAITH and TESTIMONY on the profound work of grace upon our life. Make no mistake, there are problems and challenges in life. For these Jesus assured us to be of good cheer because He has overcome the enemy and the world in its ways of doing life. This is the consciousness we need to live by in our daily life.\u00a0 Jesus has triumphed on our behalf and delivered us in essence while ours is to unlock that deed by faith and live testifying of who we are on what Christ has done.<\/span><\/p>\n

Galatians 1:3-5 <\/strong>\u201c<\/em><\/strong>Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ, Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world,<\/strong> according to the will of God and our Father: To whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.\u201d<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Hebrews 2:14-15 <\/strong>\u201c<\/em><\/strong>Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil; And deliver them who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

John 16:33 <\/strong>\u201c<\/em>These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.<\/strong><\/em>\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

1 Corinthians 15:55-57 <\/strong>\u201c<\/em><\/strong>O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory? The sting of death is sin; and the strength of sin is the law. But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.\u201d<\/strong><\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

The precious blood of Jesus Christ is authentic and efficacious. We can only experience its true significance and great effect in our life and well being, when we unlock it by FAITH<\/strong> and live to declare its power in our life and situation through our TESTIMONY<\/strong> based upon God\u2019s word as in the bible days –<\/strong> Revelation 12:11 Romans 10:6-10.<\/strong> For this is the way of the victory that overcomes the world as the scriptures said. The victory that overcomes the world satanic and his cohort\u2019s influences is our FAITH<\/strong> on the integrity of the Word of God. This faith comes by hearing and hearing the Word of God. For by FAITH<\/strong> the worlds are framed \u2013 fashioned, put in order, equipped for their intended purposes, prepared, carefully arranged and organised<\/em><\/strong> <\/em>\u2013<\/em> by the creative act of\u00a0 God\u2019s word – Hebrews 11:3.<\/strong> <\/strong>By the Word of God we shape and fashion our world for His glory and for our goodness.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is your Faith in the blood of Christ and your Testimony of declaration, proclamation and demonstration of it, is what it becomes to you \u2013 1 Corinthians 2:1-5.<\/strong> An absolute act of Faith on your belief on the blood of Christ brings about triumph in your daily life. <\/strong>Romans 10:6-10 <\/strong>indicates that with our heart (spirit man) we believe and with our mouth declaration of the efficacious power of the blood based on The Word, our SALVATION<\/strong> \u2013healing, deliverance, security, boldness, forgiveness, peace etc<\/em><\/strong> – <\/em>will come. The blood will do as it has always done what the scriptures \u2013 our Covenant and Testament \u2013<\/em><\/strong> says it will do. Our Faith in what Christ has done is crucial. We need to demonstrate and proclaim our Faith in our daily life for us to experience triumph daily, knowing full well that our enemies are not asleep at all \u2013 1 Corinthians 2:1-5.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

FINALLY: The Blood of the lamb . . . The POSITION for Triumph<\/span> <\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Philemon 6 <\/strong>\u201cThat the communication (DECLARATION, SHARING, PROCLAMATION FELLOWSHIP) of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Ephesians 2:6 <\/strong>\u201c<\/em><\/strong>And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus<\/em><\/strong>\u201d.<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

Beloved, the blood of Christ is the antidote and onslaught to all the problems which affect your wellbeing \u2013 spiritual, physical, marital, emotional, financial, moral and mental health etc. Our God wants us to live a triumphant life from the place \u2013 POSITION \u2013<\/strong> He has made us reign in power and dominion, that is, of what Christ has done in and for us and not from your SITUATION<\/strong> and CIRCUMSTANCES. <\/strong>Our God will make all things beautiful for your situation when you stay in the position wherein Christ has made you free \u2013 Psalm 48:1-2.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

The heroes of FAITH in the Hebrews chapter eleven book of the Bible, all overcame and triumphed by their Faith Testimony on the precious blood of the lamb which was slain for their redemption as well as ours from the foundation of the world \u2013 Revelation 13:8b <\/strong>\u201cAnd all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him . . . the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.\u201d <\/strong><\/em>They triumphed by their steadfast \u2013 unwavering –<\/em><\/strong> <\/em><\/strong>faith on the place or position in which their victory came \u2013 The blood of the Lamb.<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

My FAITH TESTIMONY ON THE REDEMPTIVE BLOOD OF CHRIST<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Testimony 1 (Victory):<\/strong> \u201cOnce there was Teaching SEMINAR going on in the church that I Pastored. At the end of one of the sessions in the evening, a group of us were walking to a nearby suburb. It was a newly built area surrounded by dense woodland.<\/span><\/p>\n

As we walked we came across 4 men in a car and they told us to stop. One of them drew a pistol and pointed it at us and asked what we had on us. On realising what was going on, I began to confess in my heart, whispering under my breathe, \u201cThe blood of Jesus, the blood of Jesus\u2026\u201d At this time, I felt no fear and I just told them that I was a local Pastor. Without a word \u2013 they just got into the car and drove off.<\/span><\/p>\n

The next day we heard that in the same area, men with the same description as those that had attempted to rob us had robbed houses and pedestrians in the same area. A few people had even been killed. It dawned on us how God had delivered us\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

Testimony 2 (Defeat):<\/strong> \u201cAnother example of how the use of the blood of Jesus in authority can deliver us is from a time when I was a student. On my way from home to college, I made a stop over in Benin City, Nigeria to get another taxi to the campus. There were four of us in the car. Suddenly an argument ensued between the driver and the passenger behind the driver\u2019s seat and the driver was struck. The other passenger, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, angrily asked the man why he had struck the driver. The attacker turned to this man and said, \u201cHow dare you question me. Check your privates!\u201d There was a loud scream as the man checked his privates to discover that there was just skin in their place \u2013 he was member-less. I saw this with my own eyes. Unfortunately for me, I had not exercise the authority and power I had in Christ to overcome my situation but instead waited for God to do it for me through Christ without me placing an order. And I lost the opportunity then to manifest the fullness of God in me.<\/em><\/strong> As if hypnotised we were all told by this man that I now know to be sorcerer or magician, to use our right hands to circle the top of our heads in the form of a halo. We did this and then he gave each of us a brown envelope to put our money inside and gave them back to us. I got off the taxi when I arrived in school, only to find 3 pieces of envelope had replaced my college fees and spending money. It was a challenging semester but God saw me through though and I was blessed with all finances that I needed to save my day\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

Testimony 3 (Triumph): <\/strong>\u201c<\/strong>On my way back on holiday, I made a stop over in Benin City yet again. When I got into this other taxi, there were 3 other passengers. As we were moving, the driver spat out of his window and as if by magic his spit travelled out of the vehicle and came in through the back passenger window and landed on a man\u2019s shoulder. His reflex was to strike the driver as he was sitting behind the driver. At this point I started pleading the blood of Jesus. An argument followed and just as I had seen before, the other passenger asked why the driver had been hit. At this point I took control. I told the driver to stop and he obliged. I got off, took my luggage out and took my money out to make sure that it was all in. It was and I left.<\/span><\/p>\n

I had taken charge of the situation using the authority of the blood of Jesus. I was no longer a victim \u2013 I was a victor. I exercised the power in the blood by pleading the blood of Jesus. This was all because I had learnt how to use the blood of Jesus to be delivered from a situation like this\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

I can give you countless FAITH TESTIMONIES of triumph and victories that I have experienced in the presence of God the Father in life and in ministry. More of these will be in the up coming Digest on the Power of the Cross at Golgotha, this Easter by the grace of God. You can actualise this act of Faith and testimony to triumph in life by adhering to these undermentioned scriptural truths as in 1 Peter 5:7-10; 1 John 5:4-5 and Philemon 6.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

1. By casting all (not some) your cares and worries on God.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

2. By acknowledging there is an enemy and whose intentions are to work \u00a0\u00a0 against\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 your FAITH TESTIMONY in order to get to your FINANCES, HEALTH, FAMILY, CAREER, BUSINESS, MINISTRY etc.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

3. By acknowledging your victory in what Christ is done in and for all including \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 you.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

4. By taking a bold and steadfast resistance in \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Faith Testimony (declaration) \u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 on the blood of Jesus Christ.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

5. By giving thanks to God always for all things in Christ Jesus.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Dearly beloved, this is your month to daily eliminate the enemy of your Faith and Testimony in Christ Jesus. Stand tall in the POSITION<\/strong> wherein Christ has made you free and reign triumphantly in all that pertains to life and godliness. Have a great and wonder working month, full of great testimonies because of the blood of the lamb \u2013 Christ Jesus – <\/strong> Amen.<\/span><\/p>\n
