But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you (Romans 8:11).
Leviticus 17:11 says, “For the life of the fresh is the blood…”
before you were born again, your body lived by blood. But from the day you were
born again and received the Holy Spirit, you received the God-life that doesn’t
require blood for its sustenance. Now, you can better appreciate what the Bible
says in John 1:12-13: “But as many as
received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God… which were born,
not of blood, nor will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.”
When you’re
born of God, you’re not human; you’re divine. That old system of having life in
your body through your blood ceased to be; it was replaced by the life of the
Spirit. No wonder Jesus said in Mark
16:18, “…if they drink any deadly thing,
it shall not hurt them…”
There’s no poison that gets into your system through
the blood vessels that’s potent enough to wreak havoc. This is because the life
in you is indestructible- it’s the life of the Holy Spirit! Those who don’t
understand this truth live the ordinary human life. That’s the reason they can
buffeted and affected by sickness, diseases, infirmities, failure, lack and the
corrupting influences of this present world of darkness.
Refuse to think, talk, and act or live like a mere
human being; otherwise, you’ll suffer what human suffer. Don’t let the
lamentation of Psalmist in Psalm 82:5-7 describe the reality of your life. It says
“They know not, neither will they
understand; they walk on in darkness: all the foundations of the earth are out
of course. I have said, Ye are gods; and all of you are children of the most
High. But ye shall die like men, and fall like one of the princes.” Rather,
live the God-life, the divine life, because you’re born of God, which makes you
a god. Gods don’t live by blood! Hallelujah!
