The Cure for the world

 Leviticus 17:11

For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.

I was talking to a pastor friend of mine about all the chaos currently going on in the world
 I asked what he thought and he said we have a problem and it comes down to saved and unsaved

Jesus loves the little children all the children of the world Black and yellow, red and white
They're all precious in His sight Jesus loves the little children of the world
As Christians we have the cure for the world


The timeless words of the song
Nothing But the Blood was written by Robert Lowry in 1876. More than 140 years later, Christians still sing the hymn with conviction, resounding the eternal truth that it is nothing but the blood of Jesus


Jesus gave His blood, His life, a ransom for many. He poured out His soul unto death.

For IT IS THE BLOOD THAT MAKETH AN ATONEMENT FOR THE SOUL."

(Hebrews 9:22)  ”And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission”


The blood of Jesus is salvation, healing, and eternal life. No matter what you struggle with in this life, no matter what your hurts, habits and hang-ups are, there is absolutely nothing that the blood of Christ cannot defeat.

Isaiah 53:12
Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

The blood of Jesus, to the Christian, these words are some of the most beautiful ever spoken.
It was His blood, not as it was in His veins, but as it was poured out, that affected the reconciliation.



God is so rich in kindness and grace that he purchased our freedom with the blood of his Son and forgave our sins.

   This hymn  points us to life  

(1) What can wash away my sin?  Nothing but the blood of Jesus;

Revelation 1:5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,




And he washed us from our sins in His own blood: This is what happened when Jesus loved us at the cross.

He washed us - cleansed us from the deep stain of sin, so that we really are clean before Him. This is worth praising Jesus about.

If we understand our own deep sinfulness, this seems almost too good to be true.
We can stand clean before God, clean from the deepest of stains.

No wonder the same Apostle John also wrote, if we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness

In His own blood: If there were any other way to wash us from our sins, God would have done it that other way.



To wash us in His own blood meant the ultimate sacrifice of God was his Son.
God wouldn't do it this way unless it was the only way.

(2) What can make me whole again?

1 John 1:7
“But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin”

Oh! Precious is the flow that makes me white as snow; No other fount I know,


1 Peter 1:2 Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.

He must be our source and our hearts desire

I was guilty, I had been weighed on the Scales of life, my short comings & character Defects have held me back  

But when Jesus came in where there was no hope, now there was light
Acts 9:18 And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized.

My cries had woken the master, he heard my voice and when you cry out to him he hears yours also

For my cleansing this I see   for my pardon this my plea—Nothing but the blood of Jesus!

Hebrews 13:20

Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,
The God of peace will give you every good thing you need so that you can do what he wants.
God is the one who raised from death our Lord Jesus, the Great Shepherd of his sheep.


He raised him because Jesus sacrificed his blood to begin a relationship of true love for us all, a love that never ends.
Because of Jesus, the priest will do this to make you pure and wash away your sins.
Then you will be clean to the Lord.

He is the kind of high priest we need because he is holy and blameless, unstained by sin.

He has been set apart from sinners and has been given the highest place of honor in heaven





Romans 5:1-9
1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
2 By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.
3 And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;
4 And patience, experience; and experience, hope:
5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.
6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.

8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

Nothing can for sin atone,
Naught of good that I have done,             nothing but the blood of Jesus.

Naught of works, ’tis all of grace
Nothing but the blood of Jesus!
God the Father knew you and chose you long ago, and his Spirit has made you holy. As a result, you have obeyed him and have been cleansed by the blood of Jesus Christ.



This is all my hope and peace,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;

This is all my righteousness,
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
Who could make me free from the burden of sin?
Who could make me free from your passion and pride?
Who could make me much whiter than snow?

There's power in the blood,

Conclusion:

How sweet the sound when we rejoice
To every broken heart and every wounded soul
New life begins on the streets of gold

There is no mistaking the fact it is nothing but the blood of Jesus
And it for this reason I sing

Nothing but the blood of Jesus

You Are Never Alone

Deuteronomy 31:8

 And the Lord, he it is that doth go before thee; he will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.

Hurts,Habits and Hang ups  are major problems facing people today. The three often go together because many Christians and unbelievers grieve over being broken that we are alone and no one will understand 
 In my ministry, an increasing number of people request prayer for their broken spirit .
God's Word tells us plainly that we are not alone. He wants to deliver, comfort and heal us. But when you encounter pstrugels in your life, you can lose sight of this simple truth.
Satan wants you to believe you are alone ( he comes to steal,kill and destroy). He wants you to believe that no one understands how you feel, but his claims are false. In addition to God being with you, many believers understand what you are experiencing .
You are not alone now nor will you ever be, no matter what confronts you.
You may not understand much when you are hurting and the pain of  is ripping through your soul, but know and hold on to this one truth: God loves you, and He has a future for you. Hope in Him and trust Him to turn your mourning into joy (see Isaiah 61:1-3).
Prayer : God, I can't always see through my Hurts,Habits and Hang-up`s, but I know that You never leave me. Help me to remember that You are near, and guide me to other believers who I can join with to fight off the enemy's attacks.

God Can Deliver

1 Samuel 17:37
David said moreover, The Lord that delivered me out of the paw of the lion, and out of the paw of the bear, he will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine. And Saul said unto David, Go, and the Lord be with thee.

God Can Deliver
In times of crises, it's easy to feel like God can't deliver. To bolster your faith, consider the biblical accounts of when God delivered His children from their afflictions.
In 1 Samuel 17:37, David knew he could defeat Goliath because God had already saved him from a lion and a bear.
In Daniel 3, Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego refused the king's edict to bow to his idol, and continued to worship God. As a result, they were thrown into a fiery furnace heated seven times hotter than normal. But God delivered them so completely from this ordeal that they didn't even smell like smoke! He even showed up with them in the fire!
Daniel is another example of God's willingness and ability to deliver. Thrown into the lion's den for praying to God, Daniel knew such deliverance that he came away from the ordeal unscathed while his enemies were completely vanquished (see Daniel 6).
Do you notice a trend here? God can deliver His children out of any circumstance. Know today that His power to deliver is bigger than your problem.
Prayer : God, time and time again, You have delivered Your children from trouble, and I know You won't fail now. You are more than able to deal with my situation, so I trust in You.

Nothing ButThe Blood


Leviticus 17:11 (KJV)

11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul.

For just a few moments I would like to cover the timeless words of the song nothing but the Blood
Written by Robert Lowry in 1876. More than 140 years later, Christians still sing the hymn with conviction, resounding the eternal truth that we are told about in
(Hebrews 9:22)  ”And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission”


The blood of Jesus is salvation, healing, and eternal life. No matter what you struggle with in this life there is no Hurt, Habit or Hang-up  that the blood of Christ cannot defeat

 (Isaiah 53:5)    ” But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed

The blood of Jesus to the Christian these words are some of the most beautiful ever spoken or penned.

To others, the idea that all mankind needs a Savior is foolish thought.
  
 (1 Corinthians 1:18) “For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God”

   4 Points to live by

(1) What can wash away my sin?  Nothing but the blood of Jesus;

Revelation 1:5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,

1 Peter 1:2 Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.


He must be our source and our hearts desire
I was guilty, I have been weighed on the scales and found Guilty.

But when Jesus came in where there was no hope now there was light

Acts 9:18 And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, and arose, and was baptized.

My cries had woken the master he heard my voice and when you cry out to him he hears yours also

(4)  For my cleansing this I see   for my pardon this my plea—Nothing but the blood of Jesus!

Hebrews 13:20 (KJV)

20 Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,


 The God of peace will give you every good thing you need so that you can do what he wants.

The way you think. By James MacDonald

If you really want to see improvements in any and every area of your life, it is crucial that you learn to change the way you think!


Proverbs 23:7 says: As a man thinks in his heart, so is he.

That’s why this is such a foundational message for the body of Christ—who we are is determined by how we think. 

And friend, this change in our minds doesn’t come by trying harder. It’s not about yelling louder or being filled with condemnation. It’s all about getting the right mindset—a Godly mindset— in order to produce a long-lasting transformation. 

Maybe you’re reading this and you can relate. 

Maybe you’ve tried everything you can to improve that situation, fix that problem, live up to that promise, or accomplish that dream . . . but you feel like you’ve fallen short. 

If so, I want you to hear this very clearly . . . 
 
It’s not too late to change your mind!
It’s not too late to experience victory!
It’s not too late to live with joy!
It’s not too late to see real, tangible change!


All of us have areas of our life that we’d like to change. Maybe it’s your marriage, your business, or your relationship with God. But if we all want to change, why is it so hard? You see, it’s not about yelling louder, trying harder, or being filled with condemnation. It’s all about getting the right mindset, a Godly mindset. And when that happens, long-lasting transformation follows!
 
Friend, change is not dependent on trying harder. Real change comes when you choose to embrace a Godly mindset because the way you think affects everything. I want to invite you to request the resources below so that you may experience the victory of lasting change in your life beginning today.

All About Demeanor

Genesis 25:21-22(KJV)
 And Isaac intreated the Lord for his wife, because she was barren: and the Lord was intreated of him, and Rebekah his wife conceived.
And the children struggled together within her; and she said, If it be so, why am I thus? And she went to enquire of the Lord.

Everybody is conceived with a demeanor, however it doesn't generally appear as significantly as twins warring in the womb. Possibly it's putting the blades point-up versus point-down in the dishwasher. Then again energizing through being separated from everyone else instead of being in a major gathering. Despite how it shows, your demeanor is something God gives you. It's your regular mental viewpoint; your dominating inclination or inclining; you're winning perspective. 

God plans it for good, but since of our corruption, our manner gets twisted. At the point when this happens, what were impartial propensities can prompt fortifications. 

Notice the word battled in Genesis 25. The Hebrew word implies pulverizing or abusing. This suggests the kids were warring inside Rebekah which, obviously, is not run of the mill child development. This is what I need you to get from this: Disposition influences each relationship and each choice. It's the channel introduced on your reasoning through which you handle reality. It's the reason four individuals on a road corner can all watch the same mischance and have diverse sentiments about it. 

At the point when Rebekah brought forth her twins, "The principal turned out red, all his body like a bristly shroud, so they called his name Esau. Subsequently his sibling turned out with his hand holding Esau's heel" (Genesis 25:25–26). 

Why was he holding his sibling's heel? Since he needed to be conceived first. The name Jacob implies heel catcher or heel grabber. It's the way to go of needing to discover a way, regardless of the fact that it includes misdirection. Jacob can likewise mean to advance beyond the other. 

Do you perceive how their demeanors were at that point in that spot? God's Word is not saying, "Gracious! How fascinating! How irregular! He was clutching his heel. Isn't that interesting?" No. That is not what the Bible is stating by any means. It's uncovering that what they will get to be is available in the womb and in their conveyance. Later we see the young men's miens wind up impacting the way that Esau sold his bequest to his sibling for a dish of stew. 

On the off chance that you need to think distinctively and break out of fortresses that torment you, you need to inspect your own air. Do you see that you were conceived with a state of mind that you have fought your entire life? It's anything but difficult to slip into musings such as, This isn't a way; this is the way. This isn't a decent way; this is the right way. 

How you prepare what happens in your home, kids, marriage, funds, work, church—everything experiences the channel in your psyche. That is the place the fortifications, contentions, and elevated suppositions start to take up habitation. 

Auras are God-given, however Satan dependably tries to bend what God means for good. So pause for a minute and let this truth settle in your heart: You can't change your aura. Nor does God need you to change it. You are consummately suited for what God needs you to do. Rather, get to be mindful of fortresses that have created out of your attitude, and make it your every day objective to take your musings hostage to the compliance of Christ. That is the way to finding and obliterating the fortresses of attitude.

Dwelling in the place of death.


Mark 5:1-20 (KJV)

1And they came over unto the other side of the sea, into the country of the Gadarenes.
2 And when he was come out of the ship, immediately there met him out of the tombs a man with an unclean spirit
3 Who had his dwelling among the tombs; and no man could bind him, no, not with chains:
4 Because that he had been often bound with fetters and chains, and the chains had been plucked asunder by him, and the fetters broken in pieces: neither could any man tame him.
5 And always, night and day, he was in the mountains, and in the tombs, crying, and cutting himself with stones.
6 But when he saw Jesus afar off, he ran and worshipped him,
7 And cried with a loud voice, and said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of the most high God? I adjure thee by God, that thou torment me not.
8 For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit.
9 And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.
10 And he besought him much that he would not send them away out of the country.
11 Now there was there nigh unto the mountains a great herd of swine feeding.
12 And all the devils besought him, saying, Send us into the swine, that we may enter into them.

13 And forthwith Jesus gave them leave. And the unclean spirits went out, and entered into the swine: and the herd ran violently down a steep place into the sea, (they were about two thousand;) and were choked in the sea.
14 And they that fed the swine fled, and told it in the city, and in the country. And they went out to see what it was that was done.
15 And they come to Jesus, and see him that was possessed with the devil, and had the legion, sitting, and clothed, and in his right mind: and they were afraid.
16 And they that saw it told them how it befell to him that was possessed with the devil, and also concerning the swine.
17 And they began to pray him to depart out of their coasts.
18 And when he was come into the ship, he that had been possessed with the devil prayed him that he might be with him.
19 Howbeit Jesus suffered him not, but saith unto him, Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee, and hath had compassion on thee.
20 And he departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all men did marvel.



When Jesus climbed out of the boat, a man possessed by an evil spirit came out from a cemetery to meet him.

Many hold the virtue of Christ in admiration, and yet they will not lose even the least thing they have in order to redeem it.

Literally, "in an unclean spirit"; now they are said to be in the spirit because the spirit holds them tightly locked up, and as it were bound.

The helplessness of men to stop the sway of sin. Stop and consider the efforts that are daily being put forth to save the lost of this world.

Think not that the world does not try to save the world. Of course it does. Every hospital, every rescue home, every temperance society, every reform movement, every court house, and every jail is an effort to save men from their ills, and from the ravages of their sins.

The Gadarenes had bound the demoniac time and again; however, the man, in his seemingly superhuman lunacy, had broken every chain. Poor fellow, what were ropes and chains to him?

 Just so many good, but useless and easily broken strands. No man could bind the man of Gadara, and no man can bind the sinner.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dwelling in the place of death.

The Gadarene in the mountains and tombs suggests to us that the men of sin are shorn of comfort and peace.
The place of tombs, the graveyards, is no place for the living to dwell.
They speak only of sin and its wages, death.



They may be beautiful without with fern and flower, but within they are filled with dead men's bones.

Yet this world is itself only a great graveyard.
Men are walking constantly in the shadows of foreboding death.
Everything around us says, "It is appointed unto men once to die."

We dare not sit in judgment against the people of Gadara, for the children of this age are as corrupt as they.
The ungodly hug to their hearts the things which make for their undoing.
Men do not want to retain God in their knowledge, because men are filled with unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, maliciousness. They are even haters of God.
Once again we need but to look around us to see the very same thing being done in our generation.

Multitudes of people will not accept Christ to rule over them.
Plainly stated men and women in sin, want to be left alone.

They will welcome no hand that seeks to rescue them.

The masses are saying, "I know not the Lord, neither will I let my sins go."


 Yet the man who wants to be set free comes to a point that Jesus is the only answer and they know him

The request of the man of Gadara.

He prayed the Lord that he might be with Him. This was a perfectly natural and honorable request.

Where is he who, being saved from so great a death, by so great a Saviour, does not want to be with Him!

The Lord's command. The man wanted to go with Christ.
Christ suffered him not, but said, "Go home to thy friends, and tell them how great things the Lord hath done for thee."

Perhaps we, too, can hear a similar word. 

Here it is:

 "Go ye into all the world, and preach the Gospel."

Every creature must hear.


We must go and tell. We must go to the end of the earth, until earth's last man has heard the Blessed assurance.

God uses Rescued People to Rescue People

Hebrews 11

1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
2 For by it the elders obtained a good report.
3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
The meaning of Rescue
           
               To cause to be free from danger, imprisonment, or difficulty;                                         

Hebrews 11:23-29

By faith Moses, when he was born, was hid three months of his parents, because they saw he was a proper child; and they were not afraid of the king's commandment.

By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter; Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season; Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.

By faith he forsook Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king: for he endured, as seeing him who is invisible.

Through faith he kept the passover, and the sprinkling of blood, lest he that destroyed the firstborn should touch them.

By faith they passed through the Red sea as by dry land: which the Egyptians assaying to do were drowned.






Belief, trust, and loyalty is where  Christians find their security and hope in God as revealed in Jesus Christ, our unique relationship to God in  through love and obedience as expressed in  our lives of discipleship and service.


  
Exodus 14


we will see that Moses did not question God he only obeyed.

And the Lord spake unto Moses, saying, Speak unto the children of Israel, that they turn and encamp before Pihahiroth, between Migdol and the sea, over against Baalzephon: before it shall ye encamp by the sea.
For Pharaoh will say of the children of Israel, They are entangled in the land, the wilderness hath shut them in.

And I will harden Pharaoh's heart, that he shall follow after them; and I will be honoured upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host; that the Egyptians may know that I am the Lord. And they did so.

And it was told the king of Egypt that the people fled: and the heart of Pharaoh and of his servants was turned against the people, and they said, Why have we done this, that we have let Israel go from serving us?
And he made ready his chariot, and took his people with him:
And he took six hundred chosen chariots, and all the chariots of Egypt, and captains over every one of them.

And the Lord hardened the heart of Pharaoh king of Egypt, and he pursued after the children of Israel: and the children of Israel went out with an high hand.

But the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.

And when Pharaoh drew nigh, the children of Israel lifted up their eyes, and, behold, the Egyptians marched after them; and they were sore afraid: and the children of Israel cried out unto the Lord.

And they said unto Moses, Because there were no graves in Egypt, hast thou taken us away to die in the wilderness? 

wherefore hast thou dealt thus with us, to carry us forth out of Egypt?

Is not this the word that we did tell thee in Egypt, saying, Let us alone, that we may serve the Egyptians? 

For it had been better for us to serve the Egyptians, than that we should die in the wilderness.

And Moses said unto the people, Fear ye not, stand still, and see the salvation of the Lord, which he will shew to you to day: for the Egyptians whom ye have seen to day, ye shall see them again no more for ever.

The Lord shall fight for you, and ye shall hold your peace.

And the Lord said unto Moses, Wherefore criest thou unto me? 

speak unto the children of Israel, that they go forward: But lift thou up thy rod, and stretch out thine hand over the sea, and divide it: and the children of Israel shall go on dry ground through the midst of the sea.
And I, behold, I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians, and they shall follow them: and I will get me honour upon Pharaoh, and upon all his host, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.

And the Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord, when I have gotten me honour upon Pharaoh, upon his chariots, and upon his horsemen.
And the angel of God, which went before the camp of Israel, removed and went behind them; and the pillar of the cloud went from before their face, and stood behind them:

And it came between the camp of the Egyptians and the camp of Israel; and it was a cloud and darkness to them, but it gave light by night to these: so that the one came not near the other all the night.
And Moses stretched out his hand over the sea; and the Lord caused the sea to go back by a strong east wind all that night, and made the sea dry land, and the waters were divided.

And the children of Israel went into the midst of the sea upon the dry ground: and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left. And the Egyptians pursued, and went in after them to the midst of the sea, even all Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen.

And it came to pass, that in the morning watch the Lord looked unto the host of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of the cloud, and troubled the host of the Egyptians, And took off their chariot wheels, that they drave them heavily: so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face of Israel; for the Lord fighteth for them against the Egyptians.

And the Lord said unto Moses, Stretch out thine hand over the sea, that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen.

And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea, and the sea returned to his strength when the morning appeared; and the Egyptians fled against it; and the Lord overthrew the Egyptians in the midst of the sea.

And the waters returned, and covered the chariots, and the horsemen, and all the host of Pharaoh that came into the sea after them; there remained not so much as one of them.

But the children of Israel walked upon dry land in the midst of the sea; and the waters were a wall unto them on their right hand, and on their left.Thus the Lord saved Israel that day out of the hand of the Egyptians; and Israel saw the Egyptians dead upon the sea shore.


And Israel saw that great work which the Lord did upon the Egyptians: and the people feared the Lord, and believed the Lord, and his servant Moses.
