Blood of Jesus

Blood Of Jesus Is Tested In Israel, Proven Alive

by Le-Jovale Vallejo June 14, 2023

The blood of Jesus was discovered by an archeologist. When it was tested in an Israeli laboratory, it was found alive.

The Blood of Jesus

A man has discovered proof that Jesus existed. An archaeologist by the name of Ron Wyatt declared on January 6th, 1982, that he had found the Ark of the Covenant.

What was more intriguing was that he saw a huge crack above the cave where the ark had been discovered. And it appeared as though a dried, black substance had spilled all over the ark’s mercy seat.

Upon returning to the lab for testing, they learned that it was blood with 24 chromosomes and somehow it was still alive.

When he returned to the location where he discovered the ark, he learned that it was buried right beneath where Christ was crucified. It gives evidence that this could be the blood that dripped down during the crucifixion as the earth split open.

The Blood of Jesus Still Alive

A video of Ron Wyatt resurfacing explained how he discovered that the blood of Jesus is still alive.

“Dry blood is dead blood; everybody knows that. However, there’s no way I know that you can get a chromosome count out of dead blood. You can get DNA and some other things but not a chromosome count. That’s done by living white blood cells,” he said.

He took the blood into the laboratory in Israel and asked them to examine it carefully. With one look, they knew it was “dead” blood. But because Ron was persistent, they tested the blood and found something intriguing.

“I said, “Take some of the white blood cells and put them in a growth medium and keep them at body temperature for 48 hours,”” Ron requested.

24 Chromosomes

The blood was then examined under a microscope. Two people who tested the blood called the one spearheading the team and told him what they had dsicovered. The three then told Ron, “Mr. Wyatt, this human blood has 24 chromosomes in it.”

“You see, everyone else has 46,” said Ron. “23 from your mother, 23 from your father. This blood had 23 chromosomes from the mother’s side, one Y chromosome only. And they said the blood is alive.”

When the people who tested the blood asked, “Whose blood is this?” Ron answered with tears in his eyes, “It’s the blood of your Messiah.”

Who Is Christ?

by GOD TV March 28, 2022

written by GOD TV

I just want to share a word with you this morning, that’s on my heart from Matthew 16. When Jesus came to the region of Philippi, he asked the disciples, “Whom do men say that I, the Son of man am?” And saints I ask you today the same question: “Who do you say Christ is? Who is He to you today?” It’s not what you read in the papers. It’s not what you hear on the street. Who do you say that He is?And so in verse 14, it says, so they said, “Well, some say.” And saints, this is a day of “some say” “some, say” on a computer, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, “some say,” but who do you say? You can cut off all these programs and say, out of your heart, who Christ is? Who do you say this day?

“Some say that He’s John the Baptist. Some say Elijah and others, Jeremiah, or one of the prophets.”

Who do you say?

And He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” They’d been with Christ. They broke bread with Him. They followed Him. They’d seen Him do miracles. That was even not enough.

Who do you say? It’s got to be in your heart. It’s not a point of knowing of Him, it’s a point of knowing Him. It’s time to abide in a relationship that no weapon, no person, no thing, no tribulation can separate you from the love of God. “Who do you say that I am?” And verse 16, it says, “And Simon Peter answered and said, ‘You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.'”

And I pray in the Name of Jesus, when you got up this morning, by the grace in the Spirit of God, you said, “He is my Lord and savior over this day, He is the Son of the living God.” Glory be to God. What a relationship, glory be to God. We thank God that He has purposed us to be in His plan of salvation, to bind that relationship and give us all that we need to stay in that relationship, to put a hedge of protection around our mind and our heart that we put on the armor of God. And every step that we take, we take by faith, knowing that we’re in the plan of salvation that included us through Christ Jesus. I’m talking about a relationship that the world cannot separate in the Name of Jesus, glory be to God.

Verse 17, Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you Simon bar Jonah, for flesh and blood have not revealed this to you, but my Father who is in heaven.” Glory be to God. You have such a relationship. The Father in heaven knows that He sees you as His child, glory be to God. And the Father loves His children. Glory be to God. That’s why He sent his Son into the world, because sin was in the world, and the Father did not want you to succumb to this sinful world. He sent His Son, His Son died on the cross that we did not have to die. Glory be to God. The blood is shed and covered us. It forgives our sins, glory be to God. And when you look into the Book of Life, our name, the believers are written in there and it’s scratched out. It’s blacked out. What is it? What kind of ink did He use to blot out our sins? He used the blood of Jesus to blot out every sin that we have. That’s the kind of ink He used. That’s the kind of ink that’s written in the Book of Life. Glory be to God. And He’s coming back. He’s coming back. And for us, He’s not sending His angels. He’s coming back personally, in the Name of Jesus.

Who do you say that He is in this day? Is He your Lord? Ask yourself that, and answer that yourself. Not what he say or she say, not what they say. What say of you? In the Name of Jesus, be blessed in the Name of Jesus. God loves you. Amen.

A Prayer For Healing

by Seun Odumbo September 20, 2021

written by Seun Odumbo

This prayer is specifically for the sick and believing God for healing by the power of God in Christ Jesus. Should you also know anyone who is sick, and you may please engage in this prayer on their behalf and share with them if they can do the prayer. By the grace of God and the power in the name of Jesus, there shall be testimonies.

“Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed” (1 Peter 2:24)

What The Bible Reveals About Healing

John 10:10 says, “The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.” The purpose of our adversary, the devil, is to steal, take life, and destroy. The devil does that as well by afflicting people with sickness. But our joy and victory are that Jesus has given us life even in abundance.

The will of Christ for us is not to be sick but to be in health. See what 3 John verse 3 says, “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.” Jesus also provided healing for us by His precious blood should we fall sick, see Isaiah 53:5 and 1 Peter 2:24.

Isaiah 54:17 says, “No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.” That is, as we are in Christ Jesus, it is our heritage that no weapons of the wicked formed against you should prosper. Weapons of the wicked could come in various forms, and they could also be a sickness. So, it is our responsibility to contend earnestly, fight with everything in us by faith in a place of prayer, in the name of Jesus and impose our God’s given heritage.

Prayer

There are prayer points raised and prayed in the below video. Please follow and engage yourself in the prayer by faith because it is only the prayer of faith that shall save the sick, see James 5:15. The earnest, heartfelt, continued prayer of a righteous man makes tremendous power available, dynamic in its working, see James 5:16.

Becoming One With The Savior

by The Shulammite July 26, 2021

written by The Shulammite

Becoming one with the Savior results in cosmic changes. In Matthew 8:1-4, there’s an underlying message which showcases the Savior’s willingness to become one with sinful people. Here, a leper perceived that Jesus was the gateway to another destiny, and his story reflects the great love of Christ.

Let’s discover its beauty!

An act of Worship

Analyzing verse 2, we discover that:

A leper came worshiping and adoring Jesus and humbled himself. He acknowledged Jesus as the supreme authority of his life, saying:

“If it’s Your choice, desire, and delight, You have the power, and opportunity to purify, and cleanse me.”

What was the Savior’s response?

“And Jesus put forth His hand and touched him, saying I will; be thou clean. And immediately, his leprosy was cleansed.” (Matthew 8:3)

Here, the word for touch is “haptomai,” meaning attach oneself or touch.

So, Jesus attached Himself to the man’s uncleanness and declared that He would gladly purify him. Hence, it was the act of Jesus “becoming one” with the leper that brought about the transformation.

The Gift

However, the beauty of the story is highlighted in Jesus’ command to the leper:

“Go thy way, shew thyself to the priest, and offer the gift that Moses commanded, for a testimony unto them.”(Matthew 8:4)

What was the gift?

Jesus was referring to the law of the leper in the day of their cleansing (see Leviticus chapter 14).

A leper had to present themselves to the priest, who would examine whether the plagued was healed. If that was the case, the following occurred:

The leper was instructed to bring two clean and alive birds, cedarwood, scarlet, and hyssop. The priest killed one of the birds in an earthen vessel over running water. The remaining would be dipped in the blood of the dead bird; the priest would then sprinkle the leper seven times with the blood using these.

Afterward, the other bird was let loose in an open field, alive and free.

What happened next?

The person then washed their clothes, shaved all the hair off their bodies, and washed themselves with water. Allowed back into the camp, they remained outside their tent for seven days, and on the last day, they repeated the washing and shaving.

On the eighth day, the cleansed person brought two lambs without blemish, one ewe lamb, an ephah of fine flour mixed with oil, and a log of oil. Then the priest would present a wave, grain, trespass, sin, and a burnt offering.

The wonder, however, is that upon killing one of the lambs, the priest took some of the blood and placed it on the right ear, thumb, and big toe of the cleansed person; the same ritual a priest received (see Leviticus 8). Likewise, these areas were anointed with oil, and the oil was also poured on the person’s head.

A Moment of Reflection

The gift of the leper revealed the identity of Christ and pointed to the day God would condemn Jesus in our place. We were dipped in innocent blood and set free because, without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sins (see Hebrews 9:22). His gift testified that the earth no longer witnessed a shadow of good things to come (see Hebrews 10:1), but experienced the fulfillment of prophecy.

Touching the leper testified that the Savior, would take our pain, bare our sufferings, be pierced for our transgressions, crushed for our iniquities, and the punishment of our peace would be on Him (see Isaiah 53:4-5).

For we know that “He bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness; by Whose stripes we were healed.” (1 Peter 2:24)

A Call to Change

Like the leper, we’re commanded to “put on a new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness…” (Ephesians 4:22-24)

We look to Jesus’ blood because it’s through His blood that becoming one with the Savior transforms our lives. He cleans our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God (see Hebrews 9:14).

Because of His blood, we’re anointed with the oil of the Holy Spirit and are “a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that we may declare the praises of Him who called us out of darkness into His wonderful light.” (1 Peter 2:9)

Becoming one with the Savior, let our lives testify of the good things that have come!

Is Your Faith Rock-Solid?

by Henrietta Decruz July 28, 2020

written by Henrietta Decruz

The unimaginable happened at the beginning of 2020. World-systems came to a halt. As believers, we know our God is our Protector, Healer, and Provider. No matter what happens, we are covered by our God. The Israelites in Goshen did not suffer seven out of the ten plagues of Egypt. Similarly, the blood of Jesus covers and protects us. The question is, “Do we have rock-solid faith?’

Jesus said in John 16:33, “I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.”

Warnings in the Word

Jesus warned us about perilous times. In Matthew 24:7-8 He said, “For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in place after place; All this is but the beginning [the early pains] of the birth pangs [of the intolerable anguish].” Jesus calls it the beginning of the birth pangs. We have already seen these signs.

There are many more signs that are visible to discerning believers who study the Word of God. God shared these secrets for a reason. He wants to prepare us, so we can face the situations ahead. He has shared prophecy after prophecy and revelations so that His children won’t be caught unaware.

Make your Faith rock-solid

Proverbs 24:10 says, “If you faint in the day of adversity, your strength is small.” We need to strengthen our faith muscles and buckle up. This is not a time to take things lightly. Romans 10:17 says, “So faith comes by hearing [what is told], and what is heard comes by the preaching [of the message that came from the lips] of Christ (the Messiah Himself).” We need to fill ourselves with His Word and strengthen our faith so it is rock-solid.

We are going to see more unimaginable things. Matthew 24:29 says, “the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not shed its light, and the stars will fall from the sky, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.” God is preparing us. Just like we could never imagine how the world would come to a standstill and it really happened, these things that we cannot imagine now will happen someday in reality. Matthew 24:35 says, “Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.” So, we need to buckle up and get ready for the time that is coming.

Obey God’s Word and Be Safe

Jesus said in Luke 6:47-49, “For everyone who comes to Me and listens to My words [in order to heed their teaching] and does them, I will show you what he is like: He is like a man building a house, who dug and went down deep and laid a foundation upon the rock; and when a flood arose, the torrent broke against that house and could not shake or move it because it had been securely built or founded on a rock. But he who merely hears and does not practice doing My words is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation, against which the torrent burst, and immediately it collapsed and fell, and the breaking and ruin of that house were great.”

We need to take the Word of God seriously so we can tide through these difficult times. If we scoff at the prophecies, we stand to lose everything, even our soul. Jesus wants us to be like the five wise virgins who were prepared with oil and ready. Be ready. We will suffer. Those who hate Jesus will hate us. Let us run our race such that we can overcome and receive a crown that will last forever. Become rock-solid.

Coronavirus And The Blood Of Jesus

by Diana Lipps April 4, 2020

written by Diana Lipps

Many of us have likely prayed for the coronavirus to “pass over” our homes, families, and loved ones. It was the blood of a lamb that caused the angel of death to keep moving past Hebrew doorways. The blood of Jesus Christ, which the Passover pointed to, that accomplishes so much more.

Isaiah foresaw the incredible efficacy of Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross. In chapter 53:4-6 (NIV), the prophet explained:
“Surely he took up our pain
and bore our suffering,
yet we considered him punished by God,
stricken by him, and afflicted.
But he was pierced for our transgressions,
he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was on him,
and by his wounds we are healed.
We all, like sheep, have gone astray,
each of us has turned to our own way;
and the LORD has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.”

What the blood of Jesus accomplished

Jesus endured the spikes driven into His hands and feet and the humiliating death on the cross for our healing and redemption. He took our sin, pain, and suffering so that we could be whole in spirit, soul, and body.

Wholeness comes by agreeing with God about who we are in Christ and choosing to walk out the fruit of the Spirit (Galatians 5:22-23). If, for example, we choose love instead of insults, we have to change our minds about insulting others – that’s called repentance.

Looking to the blood

Some may say that coronavirus is a judgment upon the whole world for sin. I don’t know. But as Passover and Easter approach, I can’t help being reminded that it’s my sin that sent Jesus to the cross. Jesus was pierced and crushed for my transgressions and crushed for my iniquities. I need to repent for my own sin as Scripture and Holy Spirit reveal it to me. But His blood has washed me clean. I am a new creation learning how to live as a new creation in Christ. I looked to his blood the day he saved me from the kingdom of darkness.

Scientists are now looking to the blood of COVID-19 survivors for antibodies to fight the illness. There is healing in the blood. First and foremost, in the blood of Jesus. Let’s plead Jesus’ blood over ourselves and our homes. We can repent for our sin and be grateful for Jesus’ forgiveness.

No matter what happens, we are safe under the blood of Jesus!

‘Prince Of ISIS’ Sees Jesus’ Blood In A Dream And Surrenders To Christ

by GOD TV January 18, 2020

written by GOD TV

Despite war and terror, the Kingdom of God continues to advance as Jesus becomes real in the unlikeliest of places. Leading The Way Ministries, led by an Arab believer, Dr Michael Youssef has shared the astounding testimony of a former Prince of ISIS who has turned away from his horrific past to follow Jesus.

A religious leader in ISIS

Prince of Isis Mohammad (not his real name), was a religious leader in ISIS, He taught the Koran encouraging his fellow Muslims to memorize the verses and he urged them towards Jihad. “We had began to form groups to defend Islam,” he stated in an interview. He had no answer when asked why he was a Muslim. That led him to search for the “truth.”

“I wanted to find proof and evidence that Allah exists and Islam is right. I found nothing,” he added.

After finding no answers in the Koran, Hadith, and Sunnah, he was able to set up an appointment to meet a Christian, named Peter who has an outreach to Muslims. Peter had been preparing to meet searching Muslims like Mohammad. He knew to meet with a ‘Prince of Isis’ would mean his life was in extreme danger, but God had prepared Peter.

In reality, Mohammad was just as scared, but his desire to search for the truth gave him the courage to face Peter. However he was also full of hatred and anger and had every intention of killing Peter…

At their first meeting Peter boldly shared the Gospel and Mohammad began crying without any reason.

“I saw a love that didn’t exist in Islam”

Later, Mohammad dreamt of an envelope with blood dripping on it being handed to him by Peter. This he did not understand and he contacted Peter again to ask him what this meant.

Peter shared the truth that there is no forgiveness without the shedding of blood. That through the Blood of Jesus our sins are forgiven and we are washed clean.

Mohammad repented there and then and began to be discipled by Peter. What he saw in God’s presence is very powerful! “I saw a love that didn’t exist in Islam,” he said.

God can save anybody. He can turn around even the hardest of hearts. He can transform the persecutor into the protector. Just look what He did in the life of the Apostle Paul. Let’s pray that God would make Himself known to more and more people who we would consider our enemy.

2 Biblical Keys About Victory From The Book Of Revelation

by GOD TV May 6, 2019

written by GOD TV

The Final casting down of Satan as described in the book of revelation will open our eyes about the truth of God regarding the victory we have in Him.

Overcomers are defined by victory, and the Book of Revelation 12:11 can tell you why!

Revelation 12:11 – “And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony, and they loved not their lives unto the death.” Revelation 12:11

Here are two Biblical keys to victory:

1. The Blood of the Lamb

The blood of the Lamb signifies, first, the death of the Son of God – Jesus, who is the One who takes away the sins of the world. He is the Lamb of God, a sacrifice offered at the cross so that we can have a reconciled relationship with God. Because the penalty of sin is death, the lamb then had to die. The lamb didn’t die because it sinned, it dies in place of the sinner.

The death of Christ is the death of sin and the defeat of Satan, and hence, is the life of our hope and the assurance of His victory. The blood of Jesus is one of the spiritual weapons that we can use against Satan’s schemes And it is not meant for us to merely admire! (More about what Jesus has to say about the end times here)

We must not be content to only talk about it, praise it and do nothing with it. But we are to use it in the high crusade against unholiness and unrighteousness, till it is said of us, “They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb”.

2. The Words of Our Testimony

Word & Spirit

Our words and testimonies have power, and that power lies in the Holy Spirit alone so that no one can boast. We know that man’s part in salvation is to believe in his heart and confess with his mouth.

Our confession is one thing when we enter the victory of Christ’s life, but how do we keep on walking in victory over Satan?

Well, we both win and keep the victory the same way—by the confession of our mouth. If you agree with God’s Word and say what God’s Word says, your testimony will be used by Jesus to refute the devil’s accusations towards us.

Charles H. Spurgeon’s once said;

“Every believer is to bear witness to the atoning sacrifice and its power to save. He is to tell out the doctrine; he is to emphasize it by earnest faith in it, and he is to support it and prove it by his experience of the effect of it. You can bear witness to the power of the blood of Jesus in your own soul. If you do this, you will overcome men in many ways.”

Since we know this victory, we can now reject condemnation and accept conviction. Let us turn to Jesus always because He is our refuge, and let’s give Him a the confession of our faith.

Share this to bless others!

Blood is mentioned throughout the Bible. But why? The answer is incredible!

by Kyle Winkler April 19, 2019

written by Kyle Winkler

Like it or not, the Bible is a bloody book. From beginning to end it revels in blood. Within just the first few chapters of Genesis, a blood sacrifice is implied as God used animals’ skins to cover the nakedness of Adam and Eve (Genesis 3:21).

In the deliverance of the Hebrew people from the grip of Egypt, God instructed them to make a blood sacrifice from a spotless lamb and then coat their doorposts with this blood (Exodus 12:13). Then shortly thereafter, God instituted a law requiring a yearly sacrifice of untainted goats and lambs. The blood from this act was of utmost importance. It needed to be sprinkled around the altar by a high priest in order that Israel could maintain relationship with God.

The New Testament reveals that these bloody sacrifices were the prefigurement of Jesus Christ, who came to the earth as a spotless lamb and endured horrific mutilation on the cross as the final, once-for-all sacrifice for the forgiveness of sins.

The event was so bloody, in fact, that the Bible describes Jesus wasn’t even recognizable as a man (Isaiah 52:14). And just as blood was used in Israel’s deliverance from the bondage of Egypt, the Bible concludes by affirming Christ followers in their sustained victory over the clutches of Satan through the blood of the final lamb—Jesus (Revelation 12:11).

Offended by the Blood

Make no mistake: God is obsessed with blood. And this offends many people, causing the contemporary Church to skirt around the topic. Just observe the bulk of today’s sermons and you’ll notice the blood is all but drained from the modern Gospel.

Some have deemed it irrelevant. I’ve even heard parents complain when their children are taught about Christ’s crucifixion—in a Christian school. “It might cause nightmares,” they protest.

With the general lack of teaching about the importance of blood throughout the Scriptures, often I hear God accused of being gory. “Why is God so obsessed with blood?” people ask.

You must understand, to God, blood isn’t gore. Sin is what has made it gory. When you hear of a murder, often you picture a tragic blood slaughter. Where there’s a car accident, there’s almost always great bloodshed. And so we view blood as the most disgusting representation of everything that’s wrong with the world. None of these are God’s original design, but the results of sin.

As I explore in my book, Silence Satan: Shutting Down the Enemy’s Attacks, Threats, Lies, and Accusations, the devil loves to perpetuate this image. Through things such as movies and media, he keeps gore front and center so that we’re repulsed by blood, and thus, turned off to the God who he portrays as cruel and bloodthirsty.

A Different View of Blood

Indeed, sin is what perverted blood and equated it with death. God, however, created blood to represent life. This is what Scripture affirms:

“For the life of the flesh is in the blood. ” (Leviticus 17:11)

More than anything else in the body, blood is essential to life. It’s what carries the fuel and oxygen to the billions of cells in our bodies. Blood supplies the brain and the heart with the necessary nourishment to function. It also carries carbon dioxide and other waste materials to the digestive system, where they are then removed from the body.

Without blood we couldn’t keep warm or cool, fight infections, or get rid of our own waste products. Additionally, our very identity—our DNA—is located in our blood.

We must understand this: God is so obsessed with blood because He’s so obsessed with life.

Covered with Life

Blood shouldn’t be equated with death. The Bible teaches, rather, that sin is equated with death (Genesis 2:17; Romans 6:23). And because we’ve all sinned, death is the default spiritual condition of each of us. It’s only blood that can reverse this. The only act that can resuscitate something from death is to infuse it with life.

I often illustrate this point by replacing the word blood with life and the word sin with death in one of the most popular New Testament verses regarding the need for blood for the forgiveness of sins. Here’s how it reads (the original words are in brackets): “Everything is purified with life [blood], and without life [blood] there is no forgiveness of death [sin]” (Hebrews 9:22).

Equating blood with life will change the way you read the Bible, and thus, how you think about God. The coverings He provided Adam and Eve after their sin were coverings of life. The blood on the doorposts of the Hebrew people at Passover was the protection of life. The yearly sacrifice God instituted for Israel was intended to restore them with life.

Like Adam and Eve and Israel, we too are offered a covering of blood. But not anymore through participating in a yearly sacrificial ritual. Rather, we are given the blood of Jesus, which was shed so lavishly at Calvary, once and for all.

The DNA of Jesus is offered to us in order to completely cover our old lives with His new, spotless life. It’s incredible! The application of Jesus’ life completely dissolves our guilt and shame, protects us from the enemy and allows us to enjoy daily relationship with our Creator—forever.

God’s intention for blood isn’t gory—it’s beautiful! And I’m certainly not offended or scared by it. After all, there’s no forgiveness, healing, deliverance or salvation without it. Rather than question how little blood I can get by with, I’d rather stand under the Cross to be covered in all that I can get!
