“There is #power in the #blood ”   These words I have been singing from a hymnal at church since I was a young child.  As a  child, I could not understand why we were singing about blood,  because when I skinned my bloody knee it was painful.  I equated blood with pain not power!  Then there were the scary ghostly costumes around Halloween that were freaky.  Of course “way back then”  there was no television to bring horror and gore to behold in ones own home.  As I matured I realized that blood is life giving and that Jesus’ blood that He shed for us is what gives us eternal life!  Now that is something to sing about for a lifetime.  Heb.9:14 “the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God, cleansed your conscience from dead works to serve the living God“  Eph.1:7″In Jesus Christ we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace”  As many go out into the darkness of night wanting a handout, I would like you to think on the difference between Satan/darkness and God/light.  Will you choose the trick of  Satan or the treat of God?  “if we walk in the light, as God is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ, His Son cleanses us from all sin.”  There is living power in the blood of Jesus!
