Under The Blood

Lev 14:14-18

And the priest shall take some of the blood of the trespass offering, and the priest shall put it upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot: [15] And the priest shall take some of the log of oil, and pour it into the palm of his own left hand: [16] And the priest shall dip his right finger in the oil that is in his left hand, and shall sprinkle of the oil with his finger seven times before the Lord : [17] And of the rest of the oil that is in his hand shall the priest put upon the tip of the right ear of him that is to be cleansed, and upon the thumb of his right hand, and upon the great toe of his right foot, upon the blood of the trespass offering: [18] And the remnant of the oil that is in the priest's hand he shall pour upon the head of him that is to be cleansed: and the priest shall make an atonement for him before the Lord.

Lets Pray:

For Several days now The Holy Spirit has been impressing on my heart the importance and the power of the blood of Jesus.

I sense that the Holy Spirit is trying to send a strong advance notice to the church to get back to the blood, not only in our thinking but also in our speaking and in our living.

(Jos 2:18) Rahab the harlot saved herself and her entire family from destruction when she hung a scarlet thread from her window (that scarlet thread represents the blood)

(Exe 12:23) The children of Israel saved their household from the death angel when they applied the blood of the lamb to the top and the sides of their door posts.

Now lets look together at our text.

This Scripture deals with the cleansing of the leper (leprosy in the old testament was a type for sin)

What this text shows us: Is that the leper was not considered clean until the blood was applied) and after the leper was pronounced clean by the application of the blood, then the priest would apply the oil right on top of the blood: The oil was only applied where the blood was present.

The importance of that to you and I is this:

*The Holy Spirit answers to the blood,

*The Holy Spirit witnesses to the blood,

*The Holy Spirit honors the blood,

*The Holy Spirit testifies to the blood.

*The Holy Spirit waits for the blood

(in other words: The Holy Spirit only comes where the blood has been applied.)

*First it's the blood then it's the oil*

No blood (no salvation)

No blood (no justification)

No blood (no deliverance)

No blood (no sanctification)

No blood (no oil)

No blood (no power)

No blood (no anointing)

No blood (no peace)

No blood (no authority)

No blood (no joy)

No blood (no protection)

No wonder the Holy Spirit is trying to bring the church back under the blood.

The Bible says: Heb 9:22 without the shedding of blood there is no remission.

(There is no Pentecost without a Passover:)

Passover is when the death angel had to pass over the houses with the blood on the doorposts.

There was a spirit of death that looked at every house, (Egyptian and Israelite) and the only safe house was the house Under the blood.

That’s what the songwriter was talking about when he penned the words: When I see the blood, I will pass I will pass over you.

There is no fire without Blood :

On the day of Pentecost The Holy Spirit came to the upper room and baptized a 120 men and women in Supernatural Fire.

Acts 2:1-4 And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

2 And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

3 And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.

4 And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

You've got to go to Calvary before you can get to the upper room.

(The pathway to power is soaked in blood)

If you want to walk in power with the Lion of the tribe of Judah; you first have to be covered in the blood of the lamb.

I'm talking about the blood:

(I love the blood.) There’s something that happens in my spirit when I talk about the blood.
