It&#8217;s not our good works that save us. It&#8217;s what Jesus did on Calvary. When He cleanses us by His blood, we are changed from the inside out. This message explains the power that is in the blood of Jesus and how to appropriate it in your life.</p> <h3>Notes: The Precious Blood of Jesus</h3> <p>“Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers; But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you, Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.” 1 Peter 1:18-21, KJV.</p> <p>Main Thought: The Blood of Jesus sets you free.<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>Value the Blood. Honor the Blood. Believe in the Blood. Plead the blood. Remember the Blood.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p> <p>Tom’s Testimony: Precious is the blood of the lamb, which was shed for you.” To me the blood is personal. It’s not just a Bible doctrine. It means God loves me.</p> <p>The blood is precious because…</p> <ol> <li>Costly (great sacrifice)</li> <li>Rare (blood of God) 4-5 quarts for all the sins ever committed by every person</li> <li>Valuable (useful)</li> </ol> <p>Precious (timios) as of a great price, precious, held in honour, esteemed, especially dear.</p> <p>If His blood is precious, then you are precious, because it paid for you.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p> <p>God SO loved. John 3:16</p> <p>The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. (John 1:29, KJV).</p> <p>CHRIST OUR PASSOVER IS SACRIFICED FOR<span class="Apple-converted-space">  </span>US</p> <p>“Purge out therefore the old leaven, that ye may be a new lump, as ye are unleavened. For even Christ our passover is sacrificed for us:” 1 Corinthians 5:7, KJV.</p> <p>“And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.” Exodus 12:13, KJV.</p> <p>Then Moses called for all the elders of Israel, and said unto them, Draw out and take you a lamb according to your families, and kill the passover. And ye shall take a bunch of hyssop, and dip it in the blood that is in the bason, and strike the lintel and the two side posts with the blood that is in the bason; and none of you shall go out at the door of his house until the morning. For the LORD will pass through to smite the Egyptians; and when he seeth the blood upon the lintel, and on the two side posts, the LORD will pass over the door, and will not suffer the destroyer to come in unto your houses to smite you. (Exodus 12:21-23, KJV).</p> <p>WE ARE IN COVENANT WITH GOD THROUGH THE BLOOD</p> <p>“For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.” Matthew 26:28, KJV.</p> <p>“For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, saith the Lord; I will put my laws into their mind, and write them in their hearts: and I will be to them a God, and they shall be to me a people: And they shall not teach every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the Lord: for all shall know me, from the least to the greatest. For I will be merciful to their unrighteousness, and their sins and their iniquities will I remember no more.” Hebrews 8:10-12, KJV.</p> <p>“Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,” Hebrews 13:20, KJV.</p> <p>“As for thee also, by the blood of thy covenant I have sent forth thy prisoners out of the pit wherein is no water.” Zechariah 9:11, KJV.</p> <p>WE ARE CLEANSED BY THE BLOOD</p> <p>“But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin. If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.” 1 John 1:7-9, KJV.</p> <p>In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace; (Ephesians 1:7, KJV).</p> <p>“How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?” Hebrews 9:14, KJV.</p> <p>And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission. (Hebrews 9:22, KJV).</p> <p>You can scrub and scrub and never come clean, but the blood of Jesus effectively cleanses you from all sin.</p> <p>WE HAVE LIFE THROUGH THE BLOOD</p> <p>For the life of the flesh is in the blood: and I have given it to you upon the altar to make an atonement for your souls: for it is the blood that maketh an atonement for the soul. (Leviticus 17:11, KJV).</p> <p>Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you. Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day. (John 6:53-54, KJV).</p> <p>WE HAVE ACCESS TO GOD THROUGH THE BLOOD</p> <p>Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living way which He consecrated for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh, and having a High Priest over the house of God, let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. (Hebrews 10:19-23, NKJV).</p> <p>[Powerpress]</p> <p>HOW TO APPROPRIATE THE BLOOD</p> <p>“And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.” Revelation 12:11, KJV.</p> <ol> <li>Total commitment 1 Pet 1:1-2 obedience and sprinkling, this live a vapour, Gal 2:20</li> <li>The Blood has been shed</li> <li>Your testimony (get the blood out of the basin) Confession means to say the same thing. Say what God says about you.<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></li> </ol> <p>And they shall take of the blood, and strike it on the two side posts and on the upper door post of the houses, wherein they shall eat it. (Exodus 12:7, KJV).</p> <p>Plead the blood…</p> <p>“I, even I, am he that blotteth out thy transgressions for mine own sake, and will not remember thy sins. Put me in remembrance: let us plead together: declare thou, that thou mayest be justified.” Isaiah 43:25, 26, KJV.</p> <p>Do this in remembrance of me…proclaim the Lord’s death. 1 Cor. 11:23-32</p> <p><a href="https://shanklinministries.org/thank-god-for-the-blood-and-the-spirit/">Thank God for the Blood and the Spirit</a></p> <p><a href="https://shanklinministries.org/nothing-but-the-blood/">Nothing but the Blood</a></p> <p><a href="https://shanklinministries.org/how-to-experience-gods-presence/">How to Experience God’s Presence</a></p>

<div id="attachment_23192" style="width: 1034px" class="wp-caption aligncenter"><img aria-describedby="caption-attachment-23192" fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" class="wp-image-23192 size-large" src="https://shanklinministries.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/01/River-1024x571.jpg" alt="" width="1024" height="571" /><p id="caption-attachment-23192" class="wp-caption-text">Tom Speaking at North Woods Community Church, Solon Springs, Wisconsin.</p></div> <p data-start="860" data-end="923"></p> <p data-start="860" data-end="923">What if God isn’t distant—but closer than you’ve ever realized?</p> <p data-start="925" data-end="1265">In this powerful and Spirit-filled message, you’re invited to pause, breathe, and remember a life-changing truth: <strong data-start="1039" data-end="1054">God is here</strong>. Through Scripture, personal testimony, and prophetic insight, this episode explores the biblical promise that “there is a river whose streams make glad the city of God”—and that river is still flowing today.</p> <p data-start="1267" data-end="1710">Drawing from Psalm 46 and Ezekiel 47, this teaching reveals the Holy Spirit as God’s living river—bringing joy where there is heaviness, healing where there is brokenness, and hope where life feels dry or uncertain. Whether you feel ankle-deep in faith or ready for waters to swim in, this message calls you to go deeper, to cooperate with what God is doing, and to allow His presence to transform not only your life, but the world around you.</p> <p data-start="1712" data-end="2003">You’ll hear how revival always begins with relationship—being a friend of God—and how the river that flows from His presence is meant to move beyond the “temple” and reach families, communities, and nations. This is a message about destiny, renewal, and the unstoppable flow of God’s Spirit.</p> <p data-start="2005" data-end="2156" data-is-last-node="" data-is-only-node="">If you’re longing for fresh joy, spiritual clarity, or a renewed sense of purpose, this episode is an invitation: <strong data-start="2119" data-end="2156" data-is-last-node="">get in the river—and let it rise</strong></p> <p data-start="2005" data-end="2156" data-is-last-node="" data-is-only-node="">This message was preached at North Woods Community Church, near the headwaters of the St. Croix River, an area which has received powerful prophecies of a great move of God before the return of the Lord.</p> <p data-start="2005" data-end="2156" data-is-last-node="" data-is-only-node="">Enjoy the River!</p> <h3>Notes: THERE IS A RIVER!</h3> <p>There is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, the holy dwelling place of the Most High. God is in the midst of her; she will not be moved; God will help her in the early dawn. (Psalms 46:4-5, MEV).</p> <p>MT: God’s river will flow through you in a greater way, and you will be part of His great plan to bring forth His presence and power … and to bring salvation to the earth.</p> <p>Two separate, almost identical prophecies given by two missionaries who did not know one another in 1948 predicted that just before Jesus returns there would be a great move of God beginning at the headwaters of the St. Croix and affecting the area 100 miles east and west of the entire St. Croix River, bringing salvation, healing, and restoration before the Lord returns. These prophecies stated that there would be miracles in finances, healing, and deliverance, as well as a return to biblical living.</p> <p>Your destiny… not just potential</p> <p>This charge I commit unto thee, son Timothy, according to the prophecies which went before on thee, that thou by them mightest war a good warfare; (1Timothy 1:18, KJV).</p> <ul> <li style="list-style-type: none;"> <ul> <li>Drink of the river.</li> <li>Swim in the river.</li> <li>Enjoy the river.</li> <li>Reach the world with the river.</li> </ul> </li> </ul> <p>Ezekial 47:1-12 Increase<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></p> <p>Jn 7:37-39 Come to me and drink</p> <p>A water libation ceremony, known in Judaism as <a href="https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&#38;rls=en&#38;q=Nissuch+Ha-Mayim&#38;ie=UTF-8&#38;oe=UTF-8&#38;mstk=AUtExfAkComRytC2QhHASxWkf34BleQHvj2s8TIc-7d6E5mbNlNFDp35t8p99PElWW3zSU7fi7DCi5DFJqPvh_jIqTN97e81J7rDgTk5hPq2uYWwWDQbE36rS5XpDBaYpWyY78JfNMtsu2y4719Y-Z_oW_oZkH34UkVnXJ_fwTBQ-cMYwcI&#38;csui=3&#38;ved=2ahUKEwjBkoDexZOSAxX14skDHbeKLZIQgK4QegQIARAD">Nissuch Ha-Mayim</a>, was a joyous ritual during the ancient Jewish <a href="https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&#38;rls=en&#38;q=Feast+of+Tabernacles&#38;ie=UTF-8&#38;oe=UTF-8&#38;mstk=AUtExfAkComRytC2QhHASxWkf34BleQHvj2s8TIc-7d6E5mbNlNFDp35t8p99PElWW3zSU7fi7DCi5DFJqPvh_jIqTN97e81J7rDgTk5hPq2uYWwWDQbE36rS5XpDBaYpWyY78JfNMtsu2y4719Y-Z_oW_oZkH34UkVnXJ_fwTBQ-cMYwcI&#38;csui=3&#38;ved=2ahUKEwjBkoDexZOSAxX14skDHbeKLZIQgK4QegQIARAF">Feast of Tabernacles</a> (Sukkot) where priests would draw water from the <a href="https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&#38;rls=en&#38;q=Pool+of+Siloam&#38;ie=UTF-8&#38;oe=UTF-8&#38;mstk=AUtExfAkComRytC2QhHASxWkf34BleQHvj2s8TIc-7d6E5mbNlNFDp35t8p99PElWW3zSU7fi7DCi5DFJqPvh_jIqTN97e81J7rDgTk5hPq2uYWwWDQbE36rS5XpDBaYpWyY78JfNMtsu2y4719Y-Z_oW_oZkH34UkVnXJ_fwTBQ-cMYwcI&#38;csui=3&#38;ved=2ahUKEwjBkoDexZOSAxX14skDHbeKLZIQgK4QegQIARAG">Pool of Siloam</a> and pour it onto the altar in the <a href="https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&#38;rls=en&#38;q=Temple&#38;ie=UTF-8&#38;oe=UTF-8&#38;mstk=AUtExfAkComRytC2QhHASxWkf34BleQHvj2s8TIc-7d6E5mbNlNFDp35t8p99PElWW3zSU7fi7DCi5DFJqPvh_jIqTN97e81J7rDgTk5hPq2uYWwWDQbE36rS5XpDBaYpWyY78JfNMtsu2y4719Y-Z_oW_oZkH34UkVnXJ_fwTBQ-cMYwcI&#38;csui=3&#38;ved=2ahUKEwjBkoDexZOSAxX14skDHbeKLZIQgK4QegQIARAH">Temple</a>, symbolizing prayers for rain and spiritual salvation.
