Pleading the Blood of Jesus


The phrase 'pleading the blood' is often used by Christians.
What does it mean to plead the blood of Jesus?
Pleading the blood simply means
applying the blood to our life and circumstances

just like the Israelites applied it
to their door posts and were protected
from the destroyer (Exodus 12).





Pleading the blood is simply the taking hold
of the authority and power available to us
by the death and resurrection of Jesus.




How do we plead the blood of Jesus?

Revelation 12:11
They overcame him by the blood of the Lamb
and by the word of their testimony;
they did not love their lives so much
as to shrink from death.





Jesus has shed His blood and made it available
for every believer to use.

Our mouths play the same role
as the bunch of hyssop the Israelites used.

We are to use our mouths to apply the blood.

Knowing about the blood is not sufficient,
speaking about the power of the blood
is also necessary.

Speaking with our mouths is important
in enforcing our victory (Romans 10:10).





We plead the blood by confessing the salvation
and deliverance the blood has brought us.

Lets use a simple illustration to drive home this point.


Imagine the world as a big courtroom.
God is the Judge sitting on the throne (Hebrews 12:23)

Jesus is your advocate, standing beside you
to argue your case (1John 2:1)




He reminds the Judge that He died
and shed His blood for you.

The devil, satan, is your accuser
bringing charges and even attacks against you
Revelation 12:10, Zechariah 3:1)

When an accusation is brought against a person
in a law court the defendant, if innocent,
can greatly increase His or her chances
of being acquitted by producing a reliable witness.

Here lies the power of pleading the blood.


Although we were not physically there
when Jesus died,

His shed blood bears witness to the fact
that He died, rose again and
defeated the powers of darkness (Colossians 2: 15).





All witnesses need to speak.
Remember the blood is living and speaks (Hebrews 12: 24).


When we actively plead (speak out) the blood
into the negative circumstances
and attacks satan brings against us,
we are bringing a powerful witness
to speak on our behalf (1 John 5:8).

Pleading or speaking the blood
causes the blood of Jesus to speak out
on our behalf
and stops the attacks of satan.


Any time you sense the hosts of darkness
coming against you, plead the blood of Jesus.




You can use whatever words the Holy Spirit
lays on your heart to do this.

A good example is below.


"Your forces of darkness attacking my home and life,
I command you to stop in Jesus name.
I hold the blood of Jesus against you.
The blood of Jesus has defeated you.
The blood of Jesus has set me free.
The blood of Jesus avails for me.
I plead the blood of Jesus over my home,
my life and my family.
I protect them from your attacks.
I walk in the freedom Jesus' death has brought me.
Amen"

I apply the blood of Jesus, the blood of the Lamb,
to me, my home, my possessions and assets everywhere,
to my whole past and present and future,
to my family and beloved ones,
to all nations especialy Israel
declaring that You demonstrated Your own love toward me
in that while I was yet a sinner,
Christ died for me.

Much more then, having now been justified by His blood,
I shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him,
and I am saved by His life and receive the reconciliation
(Romans 5:8 11)
I confess my sins, and ask You to search me now .........



You purchased me with your own blood Jesus,
You obtained for me eternal redemption
and so how much more will the blood of Christ,
who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself
without blemish to God,
cleanse my conscience from dead works
to serve You, the Living God?

All things are cleansed with blood,
and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness
(Heb. 9:14,22).

There is peace through the blood of His (Jesus') cross
whether things on earth or things in heaven
(Col. 1:20).

Jesus has rendered the devil powerless
(Heb. 2:14).

No plague will befall me to destroy me,
no destroyer will come in to my house to smite me
(Ex. 12:13, Ex. 29:37).

The blood covers me as a tabernacle and vessel of ministry
(Heb. 9:21).

Jesus loves me and released me from my sins by His blood
and He has made me
to be a kingdom (king) and priest to His God and Father;
to Him be the glory and dominion forever
(Rev. 1:5,6) .


I wash my robes and am made white in the blood of the Lamb
(Rev. 7:14).

I am redeemed
(1 Peter 1:17-19).
When the kindness of God my Savior
and His love for mankind appeared,
He saved me,
not on the basis of deeds which I have done in righteousness,
but according to His mercy,
by the washing of regeneration
and renewing by the Holy Spirit,
whom He poured out upon me richly
through Jesus Christ my Savior,
that being justified by His grace
I might be made an heir according to the hope of eternal life
(Titus 3:4-8).

I overcome satan by
the blood of the Lamb
and by the word of the testimony
and I love not my life even unto the end.
The accuser is cast down
(Rev. 12:10,11).

I am loosed from my sins
and from the effects of the sins of others
by the blood of Jesus
as I am forgiven and forgive others,
releasing them and my circumstance to God.
I am a child of the King of kings and Lord of lords.

The Lord is the Spirit,
and where the Spirit of the Lord is,
there is liberty
(2 Cor. 3:17).

Jesus is the High Priest
of this my confession of faith
in His atoning and cleansing blood.
Therefore, I come boldly to the throne of GRACE
to obtain mercy and to find grace
and favor in time of need








Nothing But The Blood of JESUS

What can wash away my sin?
Nothing but the blood of Jesus;

All my praise for this I bring—
Nothing but the blood of Jesus.
