Revelations 12:11 NKJV

“And they overcame him (Satan) by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony,  and they did not love their lives to the death.”

Make no mistake, our victory over Satan is all because of Jesus and His blood. The blood played an important part of the sacrifices of the Old Testament. In fact, God says in Leviticus 17:11 NKJV, “For the life of the flesh is in the blood, and I have given it to you upon the altar to make atonement for your souls; for it is the blood that makes atonement for the soul.”

There is no doubt that the blood of Jesus, the sacrifice of all sacrifices, that blood was not only the atonement for everyone’s sins, past present and future, Paul says in Colossians 1:20, “And through Him (Jesus) to reconcile to Himself ALL things, whether on earth or in heaven, making peace by the blood of his cross.”

Revelations 12:11 says, “…they overcame him (Satan) by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony…” The blood is the power that defeats the enemy and the words we use to testify of what Jesus has done for us, also defeats Satan in our lives.

Prayer:
Father, thank you for the victory we have through the blood of Your Son. Thank you for the victory we gain when we use our words to tell of what Your Son has done for us.
