Without my being blest?

PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE: Teacher should review the lesson for the previous
MEMORY VERSE: “Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood.” – Hebrews 9:18.
BIBLE PASSAGE: Hebrews 9:15-28 KJV
15 And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.
16 For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator.
17 For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.
18 Whereupon neither the first testament was dedicated without blood.
19 For when Moses had spoken every precept to all the people according to the law, he took the blood of calves and of goats, with water, and scarlet wool, and hyssop, and sprinkled both the book, and all the people,
20 Saying, This is the blood of the testament which God hath enjoined unto you.
21 Moreover he sprinkled with blood both the tabernacle, and all the vessels of the ministry.
22 And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.
23 It was therefore necessary that the patterns of things in the heavens should be purified with these; but the heavenly things themselves with better sacrifices than these.
24 For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us:
25 Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest entereth into the holy place every year with blood of others;
26 For then must he often have suffered since the foundation of the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.
27 And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment:
28 So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.

LESSON OUTLINES
LESSON OUTLINE 1: SIGNIFICANCE OF THE BLOOD COVENANT
A. We cannot speak of spiritual covenants without speaking of blood.
Every spiritual covenant is enacted through the shedding of blood. “Therefore not even the first covenant was dedicated without blood.” (Heb. 9:18-NKJV).
The difference between a covenant and a partnership is that covenant involves blood. The covenants of the Old Testament were sealed with the blood of circumcision (Acts 7:8) and the sacrifices of animals but in the New Testament, by the blood of Jesus Christ (Heb. 9:11-14).
B. Hence, the blood covenant is the seal of the Bible (Heb. 9:18; Luke 22:20)
C. When we understand the blood covenant and who we are, as well as what we have in the Lord Jeşus, we are then no longer bound to our feelings but can stand with boldness (Hebrew 4:15-16).
D. This blood covenant, made on our behalf, by Jesus Christ is a steadfast promise and an unbreakable covenant (Gen.17:7; Gal.3:17).
CLASS ACTIVITY 1: Students should discuss whether or not the blood of Jesus should be pleaded over everything or every matter.
LESSON OUTLINE 2: THE SAVING POWER IN THE BLOOD OF JESUSS
A. Every human being has the opportunity to be reconciled to God through the blood covenant with the body of Christ, the Saviour, who died for us.
B. The blood of Jesus personifies the covenant of salvation (1 Cor. 11:25)
C. We receive God’s righteousness, not because of our own worth, but because of a covenant made long before we were ever born.
D. Cod and Jesus created a platform for the redemption of mankind (John 3:16).
E. Every sinner is deformed (Rom. 5:12), dethroned (Rom. 3:23) and awaiting death (Rom. 6:23).
F. The blood of Jesus has brought forgiveness (Eph.1:7), restoration Heb.9:15) and salvation (Acts 4:12; 1Tim.2:5-6) to as many as will receive Him (1Jn.1:8-9), thereby making them a part of God’s family (John 1:12; 1Cor1:9).
G. God has also given us an inheritance (Acts 26:18).
H. The saving power in the blood of Jesus neutralises and destroys every evil covenant entered into knowingly or ignorantly (Colossians 2:13-14).
CLASS ACTIVITY 2: Class should be asked if they truly believe in the power in the blood of Jesus to save, deliver, heal, set free, etc.
SUMMARY: There is power in the blood of Jesus.
CONCLUSION: The blood of Jesus is the covenant of God for the remission of sin. To enjoy the full benefits of this covenant, you must accept the sacrifice that Jesus offers through His blood (Heb. 9:28).
EVALUATION: Teacher should ask the students to explain how the blood of Jesus can deliver sinners and those under the captivity of other blood covenant?
CLOSING PRAYER: Father, let the blood of Jesus work wonders in my life.
ASSIGNMENT: Share the experience of how you have obtained forgiveness and salvation through the blood of Jesus.
