Section 14
The Christian life is a kind of warfare. Satan, "your adversary…as a roaring lion, walks about, seeking someone to devour" (1 Pet. 5:8). For this warfare, you need the proper weapons. One im portant weapon which you must utilize is the blood of Christ.
A DAILY LIFE FULL OF GOD'S PRESENCE
By the power of the precious blood of Christ, it is possible for a Christian to live moment by moment in God's presence. Whenever any little sin would come to frustrate your fellowship with God, you may instantly confess and claim the Lord's prevailing blood. Immediately the fellow ship is restored. Why should you waste time? The blood of Christ is available moment by moment, day after day. You can never exhaust the cleans ing power of the blood of Christ. His blood is not only able to cleanse every past sin, but also every sin that you could ever commit.
By the power of the precious blood of Christ, you may enjoy a conscience free from the stain of guilt. Because of this, you can come boldly to God. "Let us come forward…with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprin kled from an evil conscience" (Heb. 10:22). By
the blood of Christ, your conscience can be free from guilt. Like a freshly washed window, it can be clear, bright, and full of light.
Finally, by the power of the precious blood of Christ, you can overcome every accusation of Satan. Though his accusations may be strong, the blood of Christ is stronger. It answers them, every one. This blood is your weapon. With this weapon you could never be defeated by Satan; rather, he will be defeated by you.
How dear and how precious is the blood of Christ! By this blood you can live in God's pres ence day after day.
"If we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from every sin."
(1 John 1:7)
