When I See The Blood

And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt. (Exod. 12:13 KJV).

when i see the blood

The blood of Christ serves as our ultimate shield against death and the angel of death. When God sees this blood, He diverts judgment—likewise, the enemy retreats in its presence. Let’s explore the profound significance of this verse and its relevance to our lives today.

The first Passover night in Egypt was unforgettable. God intended to pass through Egypt, striking down all the firstborns. To safeguard the Israelites, God commanded them to apply the blood of the Passover lamb to their doorposts. Any household with this mark was spared from the angel of death (Exod. 12:23). The identity of this angel is debated among scholars but isn’t pertinent to our discussion today. What matters is that in the New Testament, we recognize Satan as the angel of death (Hebrews 2:14).

Understanding spiritual death is key to grasping the gravity of this scripture. Spiritual death—judgment or curse for sin—means separation from God and the suffering it brings. This grim fate stops at doors marked with blood of Jesus.

When God sees this blood, His judgment bypasses us. “There is therefore no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus” (Romans 8:1). Jesus has already borne the punishment for sin; therefore, those in Christ are not subject to judgment. Blessed indeed is the man or woman whose sins the Lord does not count against them(Romans 4:6-8)! 

The blood of Christ terrifies death and its lord, Satan(Revelations 12:11). It obliterates spiritual death, eliminating sinfulness, bondage, diseases, fears, guilt, shame, self-condemnation, and demonic oppression.

So, how can you apply this life-saving blood? Recognize its significance as you did at the point of salvation—understand what Jesus has done, believe it, and confess it(declare or prophesy) in your life. Stand behind this protective blood, shielding yourself from darkness and death.

Meditate

The Israelites applied the lamb’s blood to their doorposts. How do you apply the blood of Jesus in your life today?

Apply the Word

Is death ravaging your mind or bodily health? Apply the blood on the doorposts of your life, and death will stay away. Is it ruining your relationship with God with slavery to lust, perpetual guilt, self-condemnation, shame, etc.? Coat these areas of your life with the blood of Jesus, driving away death and its dark messengers! 

Pray

Offer thanks to the Father for the sanctifying power of the blood, a divine shield in our lives.
