TOPIC: Christ Paid With His Blood (TREM Devotional 26 August 2025)
“In whom we have redemption through His blood, even the forgiveness of sins.” – Colossians 1:14 (KJV)
MESSAGE:
Beloved, the word redemption means “to buy out,” specifically the purchase of a slave with the intent to set him free. It also means “to release by paying a ransom.” This is exactly what Christ did for us. He redeemed us by His blood, purchasing our freedom once and for all. When Jesus gave His life, He declared, “It is finished.” That was the final seal that the full price had been paid.
This means the devil no longer has any legal right over your life. You belong to Christ. And when someone buys something for themselves, they protect it, defend it, and guard it jealously. Child of God, you are that precious possession of Christ!
The blood of Jesus not only secured your release from sin but also from every curse, including so-called generational curses. The Scripture makes it clear: “Christ paid the full price to set us free from the curse of the law. He absorbed it completely as He became a curse in our place… so that in Him all the blessings of Abraham can be poured out upon the gentiles.” (Galatians 3:13-14).
Your redemptive package is complete. Whatever bondage or captivity once held you has been broken. The handcuffs have fallen off, the chains are destroyed, and the prison doors are open. You are free! Free from curses, free from fear, free from shame, free from every power of darkness.
Redemption means you now have the authority to overcome anything that seeks to harm, afflict, or destroy you. By the blood of Jesus, you walk in victory, liberty, and blessing.
