Tommy: The blood covenant is for your children, your grandchildren and your great-grandchildren. It’s for all of us to use, every individual. The blood covenant is for us who accept Jesus as our Savior. We receive eternal life because the blood of Jesus. Sometimes a person is sick or in an accident. You may have been there, I’ve been there. We have to go be op-in an operation, go through an accident time, and we need sometimes in the emergency or in the hospital they have to give us a blood transfusion, a blood transfusion. They need our blood and we need the blood in order to live. So we give blood or take blood because it’s life. These people can receive life from another person’s blood by having that blood transfusion put into our bodies. They receive life, oh, I’ve got to say it again, they receive life from another person’s blood. Oh, will that preach or teach? They receive life from another person’s blood. Jesus Christ’s blood transfusion [laughs] He gives us blood. Receive the blood of Jesus; you don’t need another blood transfusion. The… One time apply the blood to your life, the blood will save, cleanse us, it’s the blood of Jesus. Jesus is on the cross, beaten, nailed to a tree, just for you, and just for me. A sacrifice, totally wounded for you and me. The blood flowed when they put the crown of thorns on His head, the blood flowed. Now listen, this wasn’t no little ole rose bush crown of thorns, these things were that long. They pushed them down, because the first place the devil wants to hit you is in your mind. He wants to get in your mind so when he gets in your mind, he put that blood so those, those thorns crushed into the mind ’cause the Devil wants to play with our mind. “You are no good; you’ll never be any good. You’ll never be saved; you’ve been too bad to be saved.” He comes to steal, kill and destroy. He will lie to you, he is a liar. If the devil tells you it’s raining, the sun is shining. I tell– if the sun is shining, he’ll tell you it’s raining; he is a liar! Any time that he comes, anytime the thought comes, “Just get away from me you liar! I know where you’re going you liar.” Just talk to him. Talk back to him. You ever figure out that these demons that we deal with have been around for centuries? It is not like they were born yesterday. They were, they have been around for centuries, so they knew your bloodline all the way back to your great-great-great-great-grandma. They’ve been around your family for hundreds of years. So they know how to come against us. And we have to know how to come against them. And there’s only one way to properly come against them. The blood. The blood. The devil hates it. The devil hates it when you start talking about the blood. The devil hates it when you walk through your house pleading the blood. The devil hates it when you put your hand on your children, grand children and plead the blood over them. The devil, the devil hates it when you put your checkbook down under your hand and you command money to come in that checkbook and you plead the blood of Jesus and your debts get paid and you didn’t know where they were going to get paid. Don’t tell me it can’t happen, ’cause I know it can happen.

Got a friend of mine in a little church in Tennessee. Not a little church anymore, running 3,000. Man comes to his church, looks to be about 60, I called him a hippie looking man. That’s a word some of you don’t understand, but most of you do. He’s about 60 years old, got on a pair of shorts and flip-flops with a coat and tie up here, you know, worshiping God. Now that, little unusual for me, maybe not unusual in some of our churches, but unusual for me. So the… Most of the pastors I know on Monday, take a day of rest Monday. It’s kind of a day of rest. So he’s at home resting, and the phone rings and it’s one of his elders and deacons and he said, “You know the man that sat up front with his…” “Yeah, we know him.” He said, “He’s here and he wants to meet with you.” And he said, “Well you know, it’s Monday and I really don’t want to meet with anyone uh, still got my PJs on running around the house.” He said, “Well, he is adamant about meeting you for lunch.” So they talk awhile and he agrees, showers, shave, get ready, go eat and he meets the guy for lunch. They get to lunch and he said, “Pastor, I’m driving through, I stop at your church, I’m so impressed, God spoke to my heart…” He said, “I love it, I love your preaching, I love this church. I want to do something for you, and I’m from California, and I’m headed back home, but I want you to take this. I want you to take this and use it for the glory of God.” He slides a check across the table at P.J. Chang or whatever you call it I don’t know what it is. It’s P.F., it ain’t P.J. See that’s how much I know, P.F. Chang. He slides a check across the table, for 4 million dollars. Listen! There, there is some money in this world and God’s going to bring it to you and God’s going to bring it to me when you start pleading the blood of Jesus. When you start pleading the blood of Jesus over your finances, when you start doing right with your tithe and your offering, oh- and you start doing right with your tithe and offering, God will pour that blessing out that you don’t have room to receive it. Somebody give Him praise! Will somebody help me praise Him! Let me tell you what that man did not know. That man did not know this church owed 3.95 million dollars in debt. He didn’t know that, but he wrote the check for $4 million; paid the church off completely. My pastor buddy writes a check for $400,000, that’s the tithe, sends it to another buddy of mine in Mobile, Alabama, and pays that church off. That’s what you’re supposed to do. That’s why we’re supposed to… I’m talking about the blood. I’m talking about the blood. He didn’t know, the man from California didn’t know, this pastor had walked through his church pleading the blood of Jesus over a financial miracle that’s going to pay that church off. He didn’t know how much they’d fasted and prayed for a man to show up and pay the debt off for that church. He didn’t know that, but God knew it and God sent the man. I’m telling you, when you plead the blood over your family, when you plead the blood over your children and grandchildren, don’t forget to plead the blood over your checkbook, over your finances. Plead the blood; plead the blood. Somebody praise Him in the house.
