Today God says:
 "You will overcome the devil by the blood of the Lamb, and the word of your testimony"

He promises me:
  "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death". (Rev. 12:11)

My response to the word:
  The blood of Jesus Christ cleanses me from all sin. The blood of Jesus enables me to draw near to God. I have been redeemed and delivered from the power of darkness through His blood. It also enables me to overcome the devil. Therefore, I plead the merits of the blood of Jesus whenever temptation comes my way. I will testify that I am redeemed and have the victory through the precious blood of Christ. The Bible says, "Let the redeemed of the Lord say so, whom He has redeemed from the hand of the enemy".

My prayer:
  Lord, thank you for redeeming me through the blood of the Lamb. I will avail myself of the power of His blood throughout this day.

Today's scriptures:
 "Let the people the Lord defended repeat these words. They are the people He defended from the power of their enemies, and gathered from other countries". (Ps. 107:2 GW) "But now through Christ Jesus you, who once were far away, have been brought near by the blood of Christ". (Eph. 2:13 GW) "God has rescued us from the power of darkness and has brought us into the kingdom of His Son, whom He loves". (Col. 1:13 GW)  

Quote for today:
Evil is always suggesting some compromise. To listen to it is to remain enslaved. The only way into liberty is to leave the land of evil. (G Campbell Morgan)
