We Are Covered By The Blood

Do you ever wonder why the Israelites were spared from that deadly plague during the Exodus? They had blood on their doorposts, but not just any blood—the lamb's blood. And guess what? *It wasn't because they were super righteous or had it all together.* Nope, they were safe simply because of that blood. Makes you think, right?

Now, you might be stressed about health issues or scared because, let's be honest, life throws curveballs. You hear about diseases, and it's like, "Am I next?" But check this out: just like the lamb's blood for the Israelites, we've got something—someone—covering us. Jesus, the real "Lamb," spilled His blood for us (John 1:29). That's our pass!

But what if you've messed up, like big time? Maybe you're thinking, "I've failed too much. I barely make it to church. How can I be healed?" Here's the amazing thing: It's. Not. About. What. You. Did. God sees Jesus when He looks at you because you're in Christ. Your mistakes? Erased. Your identity? Secured in Jesus (Eph. 1:7).

So, when things look bleak, remember, you're already in the winning team (Eph. 1:6), blessed with all the spiritual backup you'll ever need (Eph. 1:3). Feeling the symptoms? God sees you healed. And when you're holding that communion cup, think victory, healing, strength—because you're covered by something infinitely stronger than what you're facing.

Remember how Abel's blood cried out for vengeance (Gen. 4:10)? Jesus' blood is shouting out something way better for us: redemption, justification, victory (Heb. 12:24; Eph. 1:7; Rom. 5:9; Rev. 12:11). So, next time you feel down, picture this: Jesus' blood, our ultimate "No Trespassing" sign for anything that threatens to destroy us. We're covered, we're saved, and we're His. How's that for assurance?
