Pleading the Blood. Heb 4:16 tells us: “Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, & find grace to help in time of need.” We are told in the old days people frequently would “plead the blood” in prayer. Borrowed from a recent note from Curt Landry Ministries in part here to discuss the precious blood of the savior. The blood of Jesus draws us near, washes away our sins, grants us forgiveness, gives us eternal life, heals us, gives us joy, & speaks on our behalf. When entering the heavenly “courtroom” in prayer, be sure to present your case using the blood of the Savior. In 1 Peter 1:18-19 we read, “… you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot.” Repent for known sin; remind the Lord what is written in scripture regarding your petition; make your request known pleading the blood of Christ; & thank Him for answering. Be sure to plead the blood to our father, our friend & our savior. That is why it was shed. Love Mel
