The blood, the cross, the name

Hey there, its me Vaze, enjoying the ending days of my civilian life...

Tonite is New Year's eve... and i want to bring a word to you before i depart for greater good that is about to come, the syndicate of the SAF...

In this season from 2009, pastor has been preaching a lot on the blood, the name and the cross of Jesus Christ... I believe that even in the coming G12 conference, you will hear more from the higher authrorities present...

Today, i wanna bring to you each of the 3 elements of my title and explain breifly why these 3 entities are the crux, the core, the power, the most most important thing of the Christian life...

1. The Blood

Blood, as we know, is the source of life... It symbolises something gravely important
Like blood oath, blood ties, blood sacrifice etc...

Blood is sacred, complex and pure, thats why mankind so far cannot replicate blood, thus u need to donate blood...

When Jesus shed blood, there is divine unlimited power in the blood...

The general shedding of blood is to cover sins... But specifically, each time Jesus shed blood on different parts of His body, curses and control of satan over every area of our lives is nullified

Example, the shedding of blood by the 39 lashes of whip on His back breaks control of diseases, illnesses and heals us... (Isaiah 53:5, with enlightenment from Ps Caesar)

The blood of Christ...
- Heals of all physical diseases = Isaiah 53:5 - By His wounds we are healed
- Cleanses us of all sins = Ephesians 1:7 - Redemption thru His blood, the forgiveness of sins
- Sanctifies/set apart you = Hebrews 10:10 - Made holy thru the sacrifice of Christ's body
(Other works of the blood are nt mentioned here)

2. The Name:

Phillipians 2:10 - at the name of Jesus, every knee bow, every tongue confess He is Lord
- The very name of God is the ultimate Holy word to say...
- Even till today, Jews do not speak of very Name of God, because its sacred and utmost Holy...

The name of God is so powerful that all must submit to that Name, and as we appropriate that Holy Name of God, we summon forth the authority of God to overcome all darkness, evil, challenges, bondages, sin...

The name is so strong that every evil spirit, demons, and even the devil itself have to FLEE before the very name of God, for the use of God's name calls forth His authority, glory, power, presence, in which no evil can withstand....

The Name of God is so sacred that Bible says that it is sin to blatantly misuse the Name of God...

The Name of God reveals the promises and character of God:
Jehovah Rapha - The Lord who Heals - Exodus 15:26
Jehovah Tsidkenu - The Lord of Righteousness - Jeremiah 23:6

Jehovah Shalom - The Lord of Peace - Judges 6:24
Jehovah Nissi - The Lord our Banner - Exodus 17:15
Jehovah Shammah - The Lord is Present - Ezekiel 48:35
Jehovah Sabaoth - The Lord of Armies (almighty in battles) - Isaiah 44:6
Jehovah Jireh - The Lord of Providence - Genesis 22:14
Jehovah Rohi - The Lord is my Shepherd - Psalms 23:1

3. The Cross

The place of divine exchange, a place that separates life from death, failure and success

Before the Cross, we are once dead beings, but after we encounter and receive it, we become living beings (Dead to sin, alive in Christ) - It is the dividing line between death and life

Before the Cross, we were once people with weakness, failures, under the yoke and bondage of sin, but after the cross, we are set free from sin, able to experience breakthroughs in our lives...
- The dividing line between failure and success

The Cross also have other meanings and interpretations such as the site of divine exchange to change our sins to righteousness, our weakness to strength....

Conclusion:
- All these 3 entities are exceptionally powerful in the fight against sin, failures, challenges....
- People who really advance deeeply in God taps greatly into all these 3 entities
- The power of the 3 entities are so strong that it breaks EVERY demonic activity, spirit, temptation, sin and etc --> Critical for us to like a VICTORIOUS Life!!

Start appropriating the Name, Blood and the Cross in reverence for God!!!
