Ex 12:13  ..and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you,  KJV

The world right now is rocking and reeling with disasters and perplexities of every side.  There is a war in Ukraine, a terrible hurricane just devastated Fl and SC. Our economics situation is out of control. 

Will life ever be normal again? 

Today there is good news for you in the bible. 

In the book of Exodus, we find the children of Israel in slavery to the Egyptians.  God sent a deliverer, Moses.  Nine plagues came upon the land as a result of Pharaoh refusing to free the Israelites. The 10th plague to be poured out, would kill the firstborn in every house that did not apply the blood of a lamb over the door posts and the lintel (above the door space).  The Israelites obeyed the instructions of Moses and applied the blood of the lamb over their houses. 

When the death angel came through the land at midnight, the firstborn of all the Egyptians died because no blood was applied. 

In stark contrast, the Israelites were saved for the Lord had

said, ". when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you."

When John the Baptist saw Jesus, he said "behold the lamb of God that takes away the sin of the World." 

Jesus became that sacrifice for us, and it is His precious blood that atones for our sins. 

When you take Him as your Lord and Savior, the blood is applied to your heart and your sins are not just covered, they are removed, and washed away by the blood of the lamb.

Hallelujah! 

When we take communion, we remember what Jesus did on Calvary. His crucifixion and resurrection are complete and perfect.  Remember God is faithful, and when he sees the blood applied to your heart, he will pass over you, and the plague shall not destroy you. 

 That is shouting ground!  Go free!  Go free!  Go free!
