There is Power in the Blood of Yahshua (Jesus)
Mighty is the One who has called us and mighty is the One who sends His refiners fire. That fire is holy, because it will burn up the unholy things so that we will be made holy and acceptable before Yahveh (the LORD). Then the offerings that we bring will not be tainted, profane, common, or mixed with things that grieve Him, but instead they will be offerings in righteousness, which is His due.
All the powers of darkness, that try to thwart and hinder Your power, are defeated, foiled, and thwarted by You, Yahshua (Jesus). You are mighty for the tearing down of every stronghold. HalleluYAH! Everything that rises up in pride, arrogance, and self-righteousness is coming down! Truth will be exalted. Yahshua (Jesus), You are truth, You are Spirit, and You are life. You are the Word and You will sanctify us. Yahveh, cleanse our hands even now. Let them be holy hands that are lifted high and surrendered to You, the King of kings.
You want us to be at Your beck and call so that You might make us into an instruments through which You can be completely glorified. The world needs to see Yahshua (Jesus), and “the enemy knows that his time is short” (Revelation 12:12). We have been told “to number [our] days that [we] may gain a heart of wisdom” (Psalm 90:12). Please give us wisdom. Open up Your Word to us. Father, fill our mouths, as one eating that precious scroll of truth, that we can digest it, and it would go through our spiritual bloodstream and purify and cleanse us. We drink of Your blood, we eat of Your body; it is our food and drink, and we are strengthened by You, Yahshua (Jesus). You are our sustenance. Holy are You, (Kadosh are You), and we are strengthened by the sustenance that comes from feasting on You, the Lamb of God.
You are our inheritance; You are our exceedingly great reward; You are the desire of our hearts. Every knee shall bow—even now our knees are bowed before You in humility as You are high and lifted up and Your train fills the temple. The angels cry “Holy,” the saints cry “Holy,” and the remnant and the priesthood cry “Holy!”
Ultimately, every knee shall bow and every tongue confess the truth, that Yahshua HaMashiach (the Messiah) is Yahveh. They are One, and the power of the blood of the Son makes us one with the Father. It makes us one in the body, “one new man” (Ephesians 2:15), Jew and Gentile, a new creation. “Old things are gone, and all things have been made new” through the sanctifying blood of Yahshua (Jesus) (2 Corinthians 5:17). Praise be to Yahshua (Jesus) the Lamb, praise be to His glorious name! Praise be to the blood that is on the mercy seat! Praise His name that we are not left bereft. We are left with the riches of His glory that come through the power of His blood that transform us from glory to glory. Worthy is Yahshua (Jesus), our precious beloved Lamb!
Messiah’s Blood is on the Mercy Seat
The love of Yahveh (the Lord) is poured out. It is in the blood of Yahshua (Jesus) that is on the mercy seat! It is ready to be poured out upon our hearts to cleanse us of all unrighteousness. If we only accept the fact that we have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God and confess our sins openly before the Holy One who searches our hearts and knows exactly what is in there. Praise to the One who has called us to be holy for “without holiness no one will see the Lord” (Hebrews 12:14). The confession of our lips and wearing of religious badges, titles, and positions have nothing to do with the remnant, who will enter that narrow gate and make pilgrimage on that highway of holiness into His eternal presence.
“Choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve” (Joshua 24:15)—whom you will glorify. Choose what you will do for the pleasure of yourself or for the pleasure of the One who has called you out of this world, for His own good pleasure, to glorify and represent Him to others. Will you use all that He has invested in you for that very purpose for His glory? HalleluYAH, this is what the blood redeemed you for. Anything short of this is the trampling of the blood of the covenant that was poured out to sanctify you for Him.
PRAYER
Have mercy, Father in Heaven, there is not one of us who should not be stricken with the fear of You, which is a blessing that will give us wisdom. King David cried out, “Teach us to number our days, that we may present to You, O Yahveh, a heart of wisdom” (Psalm 90:12). This is wisdom from above, which will cause us to make righteous choices that will please the Righteous One. Blessed be His holy name.
Yahveh, You are merciful. You are the Holy One of Israel, and You are calling me to look closely at what You are pointing out in my heart, what You are pointing out in my human nature and tendencies, that I might see it from Your perspective, that I might see it according to the examples of my ancestors who sinned against You. The same things war against my spirit. May I learn from their example.
Father You are merciful. The utmost expression of Your mercy is on the mercy seat in the heavenly Holy of Holies. It is the blood of Yahshua (Jesus) the Lamb, poured out to atone, cleanse, and purify me of my sins, of the rebellions, of the lust and cravings of my flesh, of my disobedience, and of all those things that so easily beset me. Thank You for Your delivering power that will set me free.
