Hebrews 12:24 24 to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than that of Abel.
Today,
forensic science tells us that blood has a voice. DNA can be extracted
from just one small drop of the murderer’s blood and the results used in
court as evidence.
So
blood in a sense can speak. And when it is the blood of Jesus, it
“speaks better things” than that of Abel. Abel’s blood cried out,
“Vengeance! Vengeance!” after his brother Cain murdered him. (Genesis
4:8–11) But Jesus’ blood cries out forgiveness for our sins, healing for
our bodies, and peace and soundness for our minds. It cries out
protection for our coming-ins and going-outs, prosperity for the works
of our hands, the righteousness of Christ as our acceptance before God
and much more!
In
the Bible, Jesus’ blood speaking of “better things” is found in the
context of the last days when things are being shaken, so that the
things which cannot be shaken will remain. (Hebrews 12:27) God wants you
to know that you will not be shaken when you put your faith in Jesus’
blood, which speaks better things for you. That is why God wants you to
see Jesus’ blood shed for you in every area that causes your heart to
tremble and your confidence to be shaken.
For
example, if you are afraid of losing your job, speak the blood of Jesus
over your job. His blood cries out, “Favor with his boss!” And in these
days when you are shaken by fears that terrorism may strike anyone,
anywhere, anytime, plead the blood of Jesus which cries out, “Protection
and deliverance!” When fear rises in your heart as the doctor gives you
his prognosis, plead the blood of Jesus over your body. His blood cries
out, “Healing and wholeness!”
The
eternal blood of Jesus, which speaks better things, will never lose its
power. Beloved, see that you do not refuse Him who speaks. (Hebrews
12:25) See that you keep hearing the voice of grace, which speaks
salvation, righteousness, protection, deliverance, prosperity and
healing over your life!
