 We set a series called The Blood of Jesus Crushed and this is one of the most powerful weapon any believer could have and most of us do not know we even have this weapon but to break it down for us it's best again right here in studio but before we get to that which atu nimkari bishe nisha indosi ja leta uni nimesamewa. Welcome Pastor Ken, we really we're really honored by your presence today. Thank you. Alright maybe you can just introduce yourself. Who is Pastor Ken? Those that are watching you today, who is Pastor Ken and where do you minister? My name is Pastor Ken Jogu. I'm married with one wife and to be to be specific she is a woman. Very important. And we are blessed with one son. He is actually turning two in a month and I minister at Life Touch International in Muru under Pastor Tim Wangi. Alright that is a spiritual feather. Right. But speaking of you being a pastor of course there's a moment that you joined ministry. Yes. When was this? You know I get curious to, I just want to know. Uli pata jale kwa? Kambosis awi wendu pastor kwa? You know what? Let me just go and be a pastor because I've received the call. Nime itwa? Nime itika? I don't think I have a specific time that I would say this is the very specific time because I have grown up in a pastor's house. You are a picky? Yes. I never imagined that. So growing up in a pastor's house when you are growing up and seeing the kind of things that your father got through, that your parents are going through as pastors, you don't desire to become a pastor. So as I was growing up there was nothing in me that one day I'll ever become a pastor. Let me tell you how. Not only that, especially the place of, there is the place of, I am a kind of a person that don't really like interacting with people. I am a lone person. So the place of interacting with people for me was something that I really didn't really like. So I was looking at the place of you go to church, you interact with people, you are a pastor, you have to say hi to everyone. So that was, that was not for me. But I remember after finishing high school, I remember I left home, I left home, my home is in a place in Yahururu. I left home and came to Nairobi and coming to Nairobi I engaged in this particular church. And while in that church I started a prayer movement in that particular church. We used to pray together with some guys and during that particular time now it's when the Lord started kind of directing me to ministry. But still I still didn't want to say that I have been called to become a pastor. So many people identified with me from a place of a person that prays. So they knew that Ken is that prayer leader who will lead prayers and we shall be blessed. In 2013 I was given this story yesterday. I remember in 2013 things got worse in my life. I left the job that I was in and I didn't have a place to stay. So I went to stay in church. For five months I spent my life in church. Five good months. The only thing that I was doing in church is praying, praying, praying. So I remember the last month, the last month it was in August. I remember that month God started training me on preaching. And I was preaching to seats and I am holding a microphone preaching to the seats. So for a whole like three weeks I was preaching to seats. Then on the last week someone called me and told me we have a crusade and we would like you to come and preach. And that's how my ministry changed because after preaching that one crusade I was able to receive other invitations and that's how I found myself preaching. I had a miscarriage. I was in the process of success. Most of us were in the process. But it was a process. We were at home in an environment. We would not go to church but we would pray in church. We felt up just praying in church. We would come in and pray, we would pray and pray. Okay. Yes. Just like that. You loomed. Right now, it's different stories. You have even ministry, right? How about tw変, right? Isn't tw変 actually a prayer movement? It inclines more on prayers, we have a major assignment behind it We believe that in these coming days there is a revival that is about to hit not only our land but also East Africa and the entire world. So our desire is to pray until we see the birth of that particular revival. Yes, speaking of revival, also part of revival is the blood of Jesus and we have been doing the blood of Jesus for the past like three weeks. Yes. I don't know what God is speaking to you but for me when I was doing my research just to come to minister to people on J.C. Sarko that is friends of J.C. Sarko. The blood of Jesus, it had two parts, salvation, that is redemption and a weapon as a believer. Yes. Which most of us do not know that we have that. Yes, I don't know how the spirit has been leading you. When you read the book of Hebrews 9 from verses 10 to around 14, the Bible speaks of the blood being one of the things that causes purification to our conscience. And one of the things we have something that we need to understand as believers. If the enemy wants to capture your life he starts with your mind because as a man thinketh so is he. And if he starts with your, if that is the battlefield of the enemy, that battlefield there is something that we have been given that we can use to win that particular battle. That the enemy cannot get hold of our minds and our minds can be sanctified even to be able to live for God. Because the Bible says after the purification of our conscience there is an empowerment for us to be able to live a Godly life. So if you don't have an understanding that the blood of Jesus is able to purify your conscience. One of the things that you will continue living a life seeing some psychos in you. Are wondering why is it I am born again and still I am still doing some things that are not Godly. But if you can engage the blood of Jesus and ask the Lord through the blood cleanse my conscience. You can start to see a change in your life and start to see yourself living even a pure life. You know guys are watching and wondering. So say the blood of Jesus in our conscience. In our conscience mindy hangu. In a layman's language. You know friends of J.C. who watch us and say apu ni me shikaneisha. How does that work? You see that we have three dimensions of the blood. There is one thing that we call the covering of the blood. There is a place we call this mirroring of the blood. And there is a place we call it's like pouring it out. Now this is what used to happen. The blood used the blood of bulls when you go back to the Old Testament. What used to happen the blood used to be smeared on the horns of the altar. When the blood is smeared on the horns of the altar. If you have sinned you could run to the horns of the altar. When you take hold of the horns of the altar. No one will come to punish you because you are taking hold of those horns of the altar. Now the blood also covers our sins. You understand that. The blood also covers our sins. Now there is a dimension when we talk about the blood that speaks. Because you hear the Bible speaking that the blood of Jesus speaks the better things not like the blood of Abel. The blood that speaks is the blood that Jesus ascended with in the throne of grace. And it was poured at the Masisit. So anytime a believer, there are times we use like pleading the blood of Jesus. I plead the blood of Jesus upon my mind. You understand that. I plead the blood of Jesus upon my mind. That particular pleading is what cleanses our conscience. You understand. It's as simple as that. Just pleading for it. Then it comes and purifies. But now there is a place of faith. We have believers that speak. You can say something that you don't actually mean. So there is a place of believing that this blood has the power to cleanse my conscience. So when you believe what the scripture says and say, Lord, I believe what your word says. That the blood is able to cleanse my conscience. So I plead the blood. Let it cleanse my mind. Yes. I'm taking notes. I'm taking notes. But that is really another revelation. It's just saying you can say and never believe it. But if you say it to the revelation, you can actually see change in your life. This has worked for me. The moment I began just interacting with the word of God and the blood of Jesus. In particular, I could see a massive change in my life. Including that renewing of the mind. You pray that the Holy Spirit renews your mind. But the blood of Jesus, you could see massive change. You can see massive change. They say and saying with revelation. And that springs change. And saying it with faith. Now as a believer, how do I benefit from this blood of Jesus? Not even a believer. A person who is not born again. How does the blood of Jesus come in? A person that is not born again. One thing, the blood of Jesus is effective when you are in a relationship with the Father. When you are not in a relationship with Him, the blood of Jesus might not be effective in your life. So it is the place now where we who are believe, them that are not born again, when they cross from the place of sin and cross to this other side. And they become believers. That's when the power that is in the blood will be able to help them. So they just need to cross. They just need to cross over. Yes, they just need to cross over. Because the many benefits that are there, I believe you've said that you talked about the blood being one of the things that helped us to be redeemed. And the word redemption means being bought. So we were bought from slavery. And being bought from the slavery of sin. And we came to the kingdom that is of God. So it is the blood that will bring them from the slavery and bring us to the kingdom. Oni jama jaokoka wewa. Uyo jama mwenja jaokoka. Anafa kujua. Blood it comes idea. Now you know we have other people that are not born again. And they are saying, how will we be able to live the things that we have been doing? Because unangaliya life ya kuna una manzezi. Levitunimiku wa nikifanya. See easy come out. But God akiku eita ame provide kila kitu eni yuna itaji for you to be able to be sustained in salvation. And one of those things is the blood. Yes. Na kurekisha nyumaterna. Isha okoka nisha cross over. The blood of Jesus. Na benefitaji kama believer. I know it's a weapon, right? Yes, it's a weapon. There are so many things. The blood of Jesus is so many things. Yes. It being a weapon for a believer. Yes. One other things is the blood of Jesus is to a believer. Now, number one thing that I have said, it's what purifies our conscience. Number two as you're saying, it's a weapon. But you see as a weapon we need to break it down. Yes. And understand what does the blood actually do in our lives. Because number one, not only bleeding the blood that it will be able to cleanse your conscience. You can also bleed the blood. A story is told of a person that each and every night they used to pray. And in their prayer they could cover themselves with the blood and cover their homestead with the blood. So one particular night, one particular night they never prayed. They missed the time of prayer and they all went to sleep. That particular night there was a gun of thieves that was planning an attack to this particular family. But every day when they came they saw fires around in that family. Every night when they came they saw fires around in the family. But on this particular day when they missed to pray they found there is no fire and it looks like there is no hedge so they were able to enter. And they robbed the house. So in the morning when the family woke up the man was reminded you never prayed yesterday. So the blood is able to create a hedge around you and protect you. It can protect you from accidents. It can protect you from losing stuff. It can protect you even from meeting evil friends. We say na shule leo. That is the only kali. It protects from evil friends. One of the shea shule leo was a primer or junior high. I was a senior high. I was a senior high. I was a high school senior high. I was a senior high. I was a high school senior high. The blood of Jesus can protect you from any evil friends from all evil friends and keep you safe here. First you will be ministering to us during this prayer session. But final comments on the blood of Jesus Christ. Final comments? Maybe I would say what else the blood can do? Yes. In the place where the blood speaks the Bible speaks that the blood speaks better things than the blood of Abel. Apon do na Juliza the blood of Abel was speaking. Yes, the blood of Abel actually speaks. The blood of animals speaks. Believers need to understand any time they ask that the blood speaks over their lives the blood that is speaking this blood is what introduces us to a covenant that we have entered into with God. So any time you say let the blood speak over my life whatever you are provoking to happen in your life it's that every promise that has been laid in the covenant every promise now starts to be laid out upon your life. So for example in the covenant that we have been brought in there is healing that has been provided that Jesus Christ was took 39 strokes because of our healing but now some of us are not experiencing the healing but when you announce let the blood speak over my life that particular promise is in the covenant so now when the blood is speaking it speaks of healing over your life. Sometimes another thing prosperity is in that particular covenant so when you say let the blood speak over my life you are telling let prosperity happen in my life so maybe my last words would be go study the promises of God and as you study the promises get now to tell the Lord get to announce let the blood continue to speak over my life and all those promises you start to see them happening in your life.
