PASSOVER WEEK | THE RANSOM | WEDNESDAY 05-04-2023

PASSOVER WEEK | THE RANSOM | WEDNESDAY 05-04-2023

In Mark 10:45, Jesus says, "The Son of Man came, not to be served, but to serve and give his life as the ransom of many.

Life in this text refers to the blood.

Leviticus 17:11 For the life of the flesh is in the blood ...

When Jesus says … Giving his life as the ransom, please understand that Jesus is talking about giving his blood

Now, what is the ransom?

MEANING 1 | Ransom refers to the money paid, for the release of someone being held.

The blood of Jesus is the blood of ransom …

The blood of Jesus is the blood of release …

The blood of Jesus is the blood of freedom

Hallelujah !

1 Corinthians 6:20  …

For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's. 

1 Corinthians 6:20 … (ERV) 

God paid a very high price TO MAKE YOU HIS. So honor God with your body.

I am his ... He is mine ... My life is his ... His life is mine ... No devil can claim anything in my life.

Matthew 12:44 KJV

Then he saith, I will return into MY HOUSE from whence I came out; and when he is come, he findeth it empty, swept, and garnished.

This house is not yours. The devil is the illegal occupant.

IT IS ILLEGAL... IT IS NOT PERMITTED TO THE DEVIL TO RETURN IN MY HOUSE, IN MY LIFE, IN MY MINISTRY, ...

Shut the door to the devil by the blood.

1 Corinthians 7:23

(ERV)  God paid a high price for you, so don't be slaves to anyone else.

Tonight, by the blood of the Lamab Of God, is the night of your release.

Tonight, by the blood of the Lamb O God, anything held captive in the dungeon of hell is declared released.

MEANING 2 | RANSOM MEANS EXCHANGE … Jesus taking what was meant for you and giving to you what you don’t deserve

Isa 43:3 For I am the LORD thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee. 

MEANING 3 | RANSOM MEANS DEBT IS PAID/DEBT OS CANCELLED …

2 Kings 4:7  She came and told the man of God. And he said, Go, sell the oil and PAY YOUR DEBT, and you and your sons shall live from the rest. 

From the text above, the children were to be made captives because of the debt. Once paid, they were free to live free.

MEANING 4 | RANSOM MEANS NO MORE PURSUIT by evil spirits. No more condemnation. No more guilt. No more curse. Why? Because the ransom has been paid.

Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who walk not according to the flesh but according to the Spirit. 

After the blood was applied on the doorpost, Israel was free to go. Guess what?

Exodus 14:9  BUT THE EGYPTIANS PURSUED THEM, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army. And they overtook them camping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baal-zephon. 

Exodus 14:23  And THE EGYPTIANS PURSUED AND WENT AFTER THEM to the middle of the sea, all Pharaoh's horses, his chariots, and his horsemen. 

Exodus 14:24 And IN THE MORNING WATCH it happened that Jehovah looked to the army of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of the cloud, and troubled the army of the Egyptians.

Exodus 14:25 And He took off their chariot wheels, and made them go heavily, so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face of Israel, for Jehovah fights for them against the Egyptians.

Exodus 14:26 And Jehovah said to Moses, Stretch out your hand over the sea, so that the waters may come again upon the Egyptians, upon their chariots, and upon their horsemen.

Exodus 14:27 And Moses stretched forth his hand over the sea. And the sea returned to its strength when the morning appeared. And the Egyptians fled against it. And Jehovah overthrew the Egyptians in the middle of the sea. 

Exodus 15:9 The enemy said, I will pursue, I will overtake, I will divide the spoil; my lust shall be satisfied upon them, I will draw my sword, my hand shall destroy them.

Exodus 15:10 You blew with Your wind; the sea covered them. They sank like lead in the mighty waters. 

Look at what RANSOM means from this text …

1-Exodus 14:24 And IN THE MORNING WATCH it happened that Jehovah looked to the army of the Egyptians through the pillar of fire and of the cloud, and troubled the army of the Egyptians.

RANSOM means no matter how long the night takes, there will be the morning watch. No matter how many pursue you, there will be the morning watch. In the morning watch, there will be a RANSOM because the Lord will trouble your troublers in the Name Of Jesus Christ!!!

2-Exodus 14:25 And He took off their chariot wheels, and made them go heavily, so that the Egyptians said, Let us flee from the face of Israel, for Jehovah fights for them against the Egyptians.

RANSOM means the Lord will fight for you. The Lord will take off the wheels of the chariots of your pursuers. Your will hardly move. They will shout, "Let's get out of here! The LORD is fighting for you! He's against us!"  HALLELUJAH !!!

3-Exodus 15:10 You blew with Your wind; the sea covered them. They sank like lead in the mighty waters. 

RANSOM means the Lord will blow with his wind and cause your pursuers to drown. HALLELUJAH !!!
