How to Plead the Blood of Jesus
for Deliverance and Protection
any of the non-denominational churches
talk about the power of Pleading the Blood of Jesus – but
they do not tell you exactly how to do it, what to plead
it on, what to plead it against, and how frequently you
need to do it in order to get God’s maximum protection on
you and your loved ones.
In this article, I will show you exactly
how to plead the Blood, what to plead it on, some of things
that you can plead it against, and how frequently you will need
to plead it in order to get God’s maximum protection on you and
your specific set of circumstances. I will also give you the
Scriptural grounds that entitles all Christians to be able to
use this form of offensive prayer.
I will also show you how to incorporate the Pleading of the
Blood in your own personal battle prayers –
when you need God’s deliverance and/or healing power to help
you get out of any type of adverse situation that you may have
already fallen into.
I will back all of this up with some powerful testimonies
involving myself and some of my personal friends, and how
Pleading the Blood of Jesus helped rescue and deliver them out
of some real dire predicaments. All of these stories will be in
the "Testimonies"
section of our website. The information in this article has
been battle tested and battle
proven.
In my own personal opinion – I believe that
learning how to Plead the Blood of Jesus will give you one
of the most powerful, if not the most powerful form of
offensive prayer that you can use for any kind of
deliverance or protection that you may need.
This form of offensive prayer can be used not only to
get God’s protection on you before adversity strikes, but
it can also be used for physical, emotional and mental
healings, for battling demons, and for battling any kind of
adversity that may have already come your way.
I believe that we are truly heading into end time waters as
prophesied in the Bible. Learning how to properly Plead the
Blood of Jesus for deliverance and protection is going to be
needed by all Christians in order to help keep them out of
harms way as things really start to heat up in the years
ahead.
Too many Christians are getting robbed, raped, abducted,
murdered, sexually and physically abused, slandered, cheated,
scammed, etc. All you have to do is watch the daily news and it
is one horror story after another.
I believe the number one reason why so many Christians are
coming under such heavy attacks from both demons and bad and
evil people in this world is because they do not have God's
full protection on them. And the reason they do not have
God’s full protection on them is because they have never been
taught how to spiritually defend themselves
using actual spiritual warfare!
There are numerous verses in the Bible telling all of us
that we are to be good soldiers of
Jesus Christ and that we have to fight
the good fight of faith. Like it or not, we are all
living in a war zone as a result of the Adamic curse that is
still in full operation on this earth. We are living in a
fallen, imperfect and cursed world that is subject to death,
corruption, demonic spirits, and evil humans who have chosen
with their own free wills to live this life on the dark
side.
What this means is that anyone of us at anytime can come
under direct human or demonic attack. Places where we thought
we were safe are no longer safe. Criminals are getting more
brazen and more evil. Children are literally getting abducted
right out of their beds in the middle of the night with their
parents and the other children in the house sleeping in the
other rooms.
9/11 has forever changed our landscape as far as all
Americans are concerned. Radical terrorists have now officially
invaded our country and we will never know when or where the
next attack will occur. The Bible has already warned us that
evil, lawlessness, and immorality will abound in the end
times.
There are verses telling us that in the end times men will
become lovers of self, unholy, blasphemers, having no
self-control and only living life for what they can get out of
it. The Bible tells us that the love of many will grow cold
during these times and many people will only be out for
themselves and for whatever pleasures they can get out of this
life while they still can.
As a result of this kind of deterioration in man’s moral
structure – many people will become more impulsive, more brazen
and more evil. This may help explain why some of these evil
people are literally kidnapping children right out of their
beds or front yards while the parents or babysitters are still
in the home. They are losing all self-control over their sick
desires and impulses, and they are acting out on them without
any thought of the consequences of their actions.
Since I really do feel that we have officially entered into
end time waters as prophesied in the Bible, each Christian is
going to have to make a big personal decision as to how they
are going to live the rest of what time they still have left
down here on this earth.
Christians can either choose to continue to remain
passive with their heads stuck in the sand, hoping that
neither they nor any of their loved ones will ever come
under any kind of direct human or demonic attack - or they
can choose to learn how to rise up in the power of their
Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and learn how to spiritually
defend themselves using spiritual warfare techniques as
given to us out of the Bible!
When the enemy does come, and he will come at
each one of us from time to time, you can either choose to
run and hide hoping that you will somehow survive the
attack and make it out in one piece - or you can choose to
learn how to spiritually defend yourself and engage with
the enemy head on like David did with Goliath.
The choice is yours. Too many Christians are taking the
first approach, and they are literally getting killed and taken
out of this life too early. The pain, torment and agony of
losing loves ones, especially to any kind of violent crime, is
beyond human comprehension.
Too many Christians are living defeated lives
with no real joy, peace or power in their lives. Storm
cloud after storm cloud keeps coming at them beating them
down to a pulp. Many Christians, since they have not been
properly taught how to engage with the enemy when he does
come their way, are drowning in their sea of
troubles.
Too many Christians could not pray their way out
of a paper sack if they got caught in one because they have
never established any kind of personal relationship with
the Lord, have never developed any real working knowledge
of His Word, have no real knowledge of the enemy, his
tactics and how he operates - and have no real knowledge on
how to properly pray or stand in the gap for someone else
to get God to move in with His supernatural power to bring
freedom, healing or deliverance to a particular
situation.
In my opinion, and from the personal experiences that
I have had with this form of offensive prayer, I believe
that learning how to Plead the Blood of Jesus may be
one of the greatest offensive spiritual weapons
that you can have in your arsenal.
As you will see in our personal testimony section,
complete and total victory was granted to each person who
Pled the Blood of Jesus on their specific set of
circumstances. And in most of the cases, the victory was
granted very quickly! This is how powerful this form of
offensive prayer really is.
For those of you who really want to learn how to arm and
defend yourself and your loved ones when these attacks do come
your way, read on. For those of you who will choose to remain
passive hoping that nothing bad will ever come your way, at
least keep this article on the shelf in the event that any
serious adversity ever does strike you or any of your loved
ones down the road.
Before I go into exactly how to Plead the Blood and all of
the things that you can Plead the blood against, I will first
give you the Scriptural grounds that entitles all Christians to
be able to use this form of offensive prayer.
Scriptural Grounds for Pleading
the Blood of Jesus
There are many Christians who attack this form of prayer.
They ask where in Scripture is there proof that we can use this
kind of prayer for either protection or deliverance when we
will really need it. There was no evidence that the early
apostles ever pled the blood to heal, to cast out demons, or to
get God’s basic protection on them.
I believe there are three things contained in the Blood of
Jesus – forgiveness, deliverance and
protection. Many Christians only know about the first
one – forgiveness. They have no idea that there are two other
things available to them that will enable them to live a
victorious and overcoming life in the Lord while still living
down here on this earth. I will briefly discuss each of these
three things.
1. Forgiveness
As Christians, we all know there is definitely forgiveness
in the Blood of Jesus. This is the basic central message of
true Christianity - that God the Father sent His one and only
begotten Son Jesus Christ down to our earth in the flesh to
physically die on a cross in order to save us and give us total
and permanent forgiveness for all of our sins.
Without Jesus dying and shedding His blood on the cross,
there would be no forgiveness and no remission of any of our
sins. Here are some extremely powerful verses from Scripture
specifically telling us this:
- "For this is My blood of the new
covenant, which is shed for many
for the remission of sins." (Matthew
26:28)
- "In Him we have redemption through His
blood, the forgiveness of
sins, according to the riches of His grace."
(Ephesians 1:7)
- "But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have
been made near by the blood of
Christ." (Ephesians 2:13)
- "For the life of the flesh is in the blood ...
for it is the blood that makes
atonement for the soul." (Leviticus 17:11)
Notice the emphasis on the word "blood" in these
verses. There is no question that in these verses, and others
in the Bible, that the blood that Jesus personally shed for us
on the cross, which caused His physical death, is what leads us
to being able to receive eternal salvation, the forgiveness of
all of our sins, and entrance into heaven when we die and cross
over.
2. Deliverance
Now what are the Scriptural grounds that will give us the
legal right to be able to use Jesus' Blood when taking on any
attacks that may come our way? As you will see in some of the
stories in the Testimonies section of our site, you can Plead
the Blood of Jesus against specific types of attacks such as
attacks from demons or other evil people, any kind of physical
illness or disease, or any kind of addiction to drugs or
alcohol.
Many Christians are not aware of this second
component that is in the Blood of Jesus which will
entitle us to be able to use His Blood to go on the offensive
against any adversity that may come our way.
Something else happened that day when Jesus died on the
cross for all of our sins. The Bible tells us that Jesus also
defeated Satan and all of the powers of darkness that
day! Here are several good verses from Scripture proving this
point to you:
- "… that through death He
might destroy him who had the power of
death, that is, the devil, and release those who
through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to
bondage." (Hebrews 2:14)
- "He has delivered us from the power of
darkness and translated us into the kingdom of the
Son of His love, in whom we have redemption through His
blood, the forgiveness of sins." (Colossians 1:13)
- "Having disarmed principalities and
powers, He made a public spectacle of them,
triumphing over them in it." (Colossians 2:15)
- "For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that
He might destroy the works of the devil."
(1 John 3:8)
- "And they overcame him by the blood of the
Lamb and by the word of their testimony, and they
did not love their lives to the death." (Revelation
12:11)
What defeated Satan and all his dark powers? The physical
death of Jesus on the cross. And what did Jesus do when He died
that day on the cross for all of us? He shed His Blood!
This is why Pleading the Blood of Jesus works so well in
real life combat situations when it really is needed to defeat
attacks that are coming against us from the dark side.
Many Christians are not fully aware of this second fact
about the Blood of Jesus - that the Blood of Jesus can also be
used to engage with our enemies when they do try to launch any
kind of an attack against us. I believe that all of the above
Scripture verses definitely tell us that the blood that Jesus
shed that day on the cross has totally defeated Satan and all
of his dark powers.
The only thing remaining is for all Christians to fully
realize this incredible fact, and to grab a hold of this
powerful truth and not to be afraid to use when they need it -
especially when demons or other bad and evil people are
attempting to come against them with any type of unjust action
or attack.
Here are four more powerful verses from Scripture showing
that all Christians now have God’s supernatural power and
anointing available to them to use when they will need it to
engage with the dark side of this life:
"Behold, I give you the authority to trample on
serpents and scorpions, and
over all the power of the enemy, and
nothing shall by any means hurt you." (Luke 10:19)
Notice in this verse we have God’s power over
all the power of our enemies, not just against
some or part of their powers. This means we have the ability to
come out completely victorious in some of
life's battles and struggles, but only if we learn how to
properly use what is now available to us.
"Then He called His twelve disciples together and
gave them power and authority over
all demons, and to cure diseases. He sent them to
preach the kingdom of God and to heal the sick." (Luke
9:1)
Notice in this verse that Jesus gives the twelve apostles
power over all demons, not just some of them.
If we have God’s power available to us to defeat all demons,
then I believe that we also have God’s power to defeat any and
all humans that may try to come against us with any type of
unjust action or attack.
"... but the people who know their God shall be
strong, and carry out great
exploits." (Daniel 11:32)
"Knowing their God" means that we have spent quality
time in establishing a good, intimate, personal relationship
with the Lord. If we do this, then this verse is telling us
that God will strengthen and empower us when we need His power
to be able to carry out great exploits and great adventures for
Him.
"For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the
whole earth, to show Himself
strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to
Him." (2 Chronicles 16:9)
This verse is telling us that God is actually looking for
people that He can anoint with His power and show Himself
strong through, but the implication appears to be that He
really cannot find many people who are willing to pay the price
to be able to really walk with His anointing.
As you can see from the way all of the above
Scripture verses are worded - true Christianity is not a
weak, wimpy, or passive religion. As born-again believers,
we all have the Holy Spirit literally living and dwelling
on the inside of us.
As a result, all of our bodies have now become the
temple in which He now lives in. His supernatural power is
now fully available to all of us in order to help us handle
some of the storm clouds that can come against us in this
life.
Learning how to properly Plead the Blood of Jesus for any
deliverance and protection that you may need is just one part
of our arsenal. I will be doing other articles in the future
covering some of the other aspects on this part of our walk
with the Lord.
3. Protection
As you will see in the next section, you can also Plead the
Blood of Jesus on specific things that you want protected
before any kind of adversity could strike them - like your
body, your house, your car, your finances, etc. The goal is to
Plead the Blood of Jesus on those things in order to protect
you before any kind of adversity could ever
come your way.
If the above verses are showing us that we can Plead the
Blood of Jesus against any attacks that may have already come
our way when we need God’s deliverance and/or healing power to
set us free, then I also believe it only stands to reason that
we can also go one step further with the Blood of Jesus - and
that is to use it for protection before any
actual attacks could come our way.
In this case, you simply Plead the Blood of Jesus on
whatever you want God’s full protection on before any attacks
could possibly come your way.
I believe there is something else in the Bible that gives us
another clue that entitles us to be able to Plead the Blood for
this specific purpose. In the Old Testament, God the Father had
it arranged with His chosen people, the Jews, that in order for
them to be able to enter into a covenant relationship with Him,
they had to have some kind of temporary covering for their
sins. Jesus had not come yet, so there was no full remission
for any of the sins that had occurred back at that time
What God the Father had set up was the sacrifice of blemish
free animals such as bulls, goats and lambs. Their blood had to
be shed once per year on what was called the Day of Atonement.
The shedding of these animals’ blood was what gave the Jewish
people a temporary covering for their sins so as to enable them
to enter into a covenant personal relationship with God the
Father.
This is why Jesus is called the "Lamb of God." He is an
extension of the lambs used by His Father in the Old Testament
to give the Jewish people a temporary covering for their sins.
Once Jesus had come to shed His own blood on the cross, there
was no more need for any more animal sacrifices. His death on
the cross had completed and fulfilled what His Father had
started in the Old Testament with the sacrifice of these
animals.
Now watch this analogy. In the shedding of the lamb’s blood
on the Day of Atonement, there was a temporary covering for the
sins of the Jewish people. Then Jesus comes in the New
Testament, and the shedding of His blood now gives all
believers complete and total forgiveness for all of their
sins.
Now here is where I feel that something else occurred back
in the Old Testament that may entitle us to be able to use the
Blood of Jesus for divine protection. In the story of the
Passover, God had sent His servant Moses to rescue the children
of Israel from their captivity to the Egyptians. God had thrown
ten whopper plagues at the Pharaoh in an effort to try and get
him to release His people from his rule.
On one of those plagues, God tells Pharaoh that He is going
to allow an angel of death to come through their camp to kill
all of their firstborn children. However, before God sets all
of this up to occur, He tells His people to shed the blood of a
blemish free lamb and to put that shed blood on the doorposts
and lintels of their houses.
God tells His people that the angel of death will bypass
their house if he sees this shed blood put on their doorposts
and lintels. This angel of death will thus not kill any of
the Israelites’ firstborn - but only if he sees the blood
properly applied to the doorposts and lintels of their
houses.
In other words, the blood of this blemish free lamb was
being used for divine protection before this
attack would come their way. Had each person not properly
applied this blood on their doorposts, their firstborn children
would have also been killed, along with the rest of the
firstborn children of the Egyptians.
Here is my argument on this. If the shed blood
of the Old Testament lambs used for the temporary covering
of sins eventually leads to the shedding of Jesus’ blood
for permanent and total forgiveness of all of our sins -
can we also use that same analogy and say that the shed
blood of the lambs used in the Passover for divine
protection could also lead to the shed Blood of Jesus
having divine protection in it?
I personally believe the answer is yes, and that is why God
the Father seems willing to honor and work with any believer
who will plead the blood on whatever he wants protection on
before any attack can come their way - just like He did in the
story of the Passover with His own chosen people.
Before I go into the specifics on how to Plead the Blood of
Jesus for deliverance and protection, there is one more area
that each Christian must make a big personal decision on before
God will give you His full protection.
Saved and Surrendered
In order to be able to Plead the Blood of Jesus for any kind
of deliverance or protection you may need, there are two
requirements that must be met.
1. Saved
You must be a saved and born-again Christian. A nonbeliever
cannot use the blood of Jesus. In the story of the Passover,
only God's chosen people were allowed to apply the blood of the
lamb on their doorposts to get His full protection on them.
It is the same way in the New Testament. Only born-again
Christian believers can use the blood of Jesus for deliverance
and protection.
2. The Full Surrender
However, for those who are already saved and born-again
Christians, there is now one more big thing that you will have
to do before you can start to get God's best to start flowing
into your life - which will include getting His maximum
protection on you and your life. And that is to be willing to
make a full and complete surrender of your entire being and
your entire life over to God the Father.
You have to be both saved and surrendered
in order to really be able to step from the dugout out onto the
real playing field where the real walk with the Lord is at. God
is wanting you to fully surrender four specific things to
Him:
- Your body
- Your soul
- Your spirit
- Your entire life
The Bible tells us that we have three parts to our beings –
body, soul and spirit. God wants all three parts of our being
completely surrendered over to Him. The fourth thing that God
will also want from you is for you to fully surrender your
entire life over to Him. And when I say entire
life, I mean literally everything in your
life.
The Bible tells us that with the measure we use, will be the
measure that will be measured back to us. In other words, if
you want God’s best to flow into your life, then you will have
to give God your best - and your best is a complete and full
surrender of everything in your life over to Him. It’s "your
all" for "His all."
This right here is where many Christians are really
missing the boat with the Lord. They are saved, but they
are not walking in this full surrender with God the Father.
As a result, God is not working full force in their lives.
The only way to get God to start working full force in your
life is to come under a complete and full surrender with
Him.
Bottom line - God’s knowledge and wisdom is perfect on all
matters - yours is not! God can see into the future and knows
exactly what is going to happen to you - you cannot. God knows
you better than you can ever know yourself, and as a result, He
knows what your true potential and capabilities are going to be
in this life - you do not.
Your powers are limited, but God’s powers are not. The Bible
tells us that God is all-powerful and that there is nothing
that He cannot do or accomplish. Nothing is impossible with
God.
After chewing on all of the above, who do you want running
your life? Yourself, with your limited powers, your limited
wisdom, and your limited knowledge - or God, who has maximum
power and maximum knowledge to do and accomplish whatever He
wants to do?
This lack of a full surrender to God the Father
is what is getting so many Christians beat to a pulp in the
playing field of life. They do not have God’s full
protection on them, and as a result, they are coming under
severe attacks from demons, other bad and evil people, and
just natural cause and effect with all of the different
kinds of accidents, catastrophes, mishaps and illnesses
that can hit anyone of us at anytime.
Without God’s maximum protection on you, anyone
of us can fall prey to anyone of these storm clouds. Only
God’s protection can keep you safe and out of harms way
from some of these types of storm clouds - and the only way
to get God’s maximum protection on you and your life is to
come under this complete and full surrender with
Him.
If you want to take this last and final step with the Lord,
then I can give you a very short, but powerful prayer to go to
God the Father with to come into this full surrender with
Him.
This prayer should be said at least once or twice a year
after you do it the first time. You need to show God that you
mean serious business with Him on this, and by continuing to
recite this prayer back to Him on a once or twice per year
basis, you will be showing Him that you are really serious
about this full surrender, and that you will continue to let
Him have full control of your life for the rest of your earthly
life.
I will give you both parts of this prayer - the initial
prayer that you will go to God the Father with to make the
initial full surrender, and then the second part of this prayer
that will continue to keep you under this full surrender with
the Lord for the rest of your earthly life.
A) The Full Surrender Prayer
"Father,
In the name of Jesus, I now place my body, my
soul, my spirit and my entire life into Your hands. I now
ask that You place me into Your perfect will for my life.
From this moment on, I will choose to stay fully
surrendered to You all the days of my life and will allow
You to lead and direct my life in the direction that You
will want it to go in.
Thank you Father.
Thank you Jesus."
B) To Stay in the Full Surrender
"Father,
In the name of Jesus, I continue to place my
body, my soul, my spirit and my entire life in Your hands.
I choose to stay fully surrendered to You all the days of
my life and ask that you continue to keep me in Your
perfect will for my life.
Thank you Father.
Thank you Jesus."
The above prayer is short, sweet and simple, but extremely
powerful! With this prayer, you have now just turned the reigns
of your life over to God the Father - and He will now start to
lead, guide and direct your life in the direction that He will
want it to go in.
If you would like more information on this full surrender
and all of the Scripture verses to back it up, we have another
article in the Bible Basics section of our site with this exact
title - "The Full Surrender."
If you are willing to make this full surrender with God the
Father, then you are now ready for the next big step, and that
is to learn how to Plead the Blood of Jesus for His deliverance
and protection.
There are two ways that you will use the Pleading of His
Blood. One is for protection – where you will
Plead the Blood of Jesus on whatever you want protected
before any adversity could come your way. By
Pleading the Blood of Jesus on the things you want specifically
protected, you will go a long way in preventing a lot of
needless attacks, mishaps and accidents from ever coming your
way in the first place. This is preventative
medicine at its best.
The second way that you will use the Pleading of His Blood
is for deliverance – where you have already
been hit by some kind of adversity, and you will now need God’s
deliverance and/or healing power to help set you free.
I will first show you how to Plead the Blood of Jesus for
basic protection.
How to Plead the Blood of Jesus for
Protection
The first thing you are going to want to do is make a
personal list of everything that you would like to have God’s
protection on. These are what I call the basics. I will give
you my recommendations as to what some of these basic things
should be. You will then have to add your own personal things
to this list to properly complete it.
1. The Basics
The basic things that you will want covered under the Blood
of Jesus for His protection are the following:
- your body, soul and spirit
- your house
- your car
- your finances
- your office – if you work
- your spouse and children if you are married
Any one of these could come under demonic or human attack at
any time. Pleading the Blood of Jesus on your car will help
prevent you from getting into any serious auto accidents, along
with helping to prevent any break-ins or theft of your car.
Pleading the Blood of Jesus on your finances will help
protect you from all of the scammers and con artists that are
out there trying to scam and steal all of your hard earned
money. Identity theft has become a major problem in our
country. Pleading the blood of Jesus on all of your credit
cards and bank accounts will stop thieves dead in their tracks
if they try and target you for identity theft.
Pleading the Blood of Jesus on your house and office
building will help protect you against fires, break-ins,
burglaries, natural catastrophes or any type of bad
accidents.
Pleading the Blood on all of your children will help protect
them from any possible abductions, serious accidents or
life-threatening illnesses. I don't have to tell you how many
sexual predators that are out there looking for their next
victim. Literally a day doesn't go by when some young boy,
girl, teenager or young adult is not getting abducted, robbed,
raped or murdered.
Pleading the Blood of Jesus on your own body, soul and
spirit will also help keep you personally protected from all of
the above.
I could go on and on with the number of bad
things that could happen to either you, your children or
your spouse. Bottom line – only God knows when any attack
will be coming your way, and only God can protect and
shield you from these attacks before they do come. And the
way that you can get God to move in with His divine
protection before any of these attacks can come your way is
by Pleading the Blood of Jesus on each of the specific
things that you will want protected.
Here is how to specifically Plead the Blood on each of the
above items.
2. Pleading the Blood on the Basics
In order to get God’s full protection on something, you have
to do the following three things:
- Plead the Blood on the object that you
want protected.
- Plead the Blood against whatever
possibly could come against that object.
- Then seal the prayer with a statement of faith
and belief to God the Father telling Him that you
are now going to have full faith and belief that He will
now protect you from all of the things that you just Pled
the Blood of His Son on.
Here is a sample prayer on how to Plead the Blood of Jesus
on your body, soul and spirit:
"Father,
in the name of Jesus, I now plead the Blood of Jesus
on my entire physical body, on my entire soul and on my
entire spirit. I plead the Blood of Jesus against any
demons that may try and come against me. I Plead the Blood
of Jesus against any humans that may try and come against
me.
I plead the Blood of Jesus against any natural
accidents or catastrophes that may come against me. I plead
the Blood of Jesus against any diseases, illnesses or
sicknesses that could possibly strike my body.
Father, in the name of Jesus, I have full faith
and belief that the Blood of Jesus will now protect me
against all of the things that I have just Pled His Blood
on.
Thank you Father.
Thank you Jesus."
This prayer is short, sweet, simple and straight to the
point. You can add whatever else you want in the prayer that
will fit your own personal set of circumstances.
You will have to Plead the Blood on each of
the above six items to get God’s full protection on it. You
have to be very specific on the things that
you will want covered and protected under His Blood. This is
why each of you will have to make up your own personal
list.
The above six items should be absolute minimums. When you
Plead the Blood on the other five items, just substitute the
appropriate wording on the next item that you are Pleading the
Blood on. When Pleading the Blood on the basics, you can choose
to either say the prayer out loud or silently to yourself,
which ever way you would be more comfortable with.
The other thing that you can do is to hold out your right
hand, palm facing forward when actually Pleading the Blood. The
Bible tells us that the right hand of God is His hand of power
and deliverance. When you Plead the Blood, you are going on the
offensive. By holding out your right hand when Pleading the
Blood on the basics, you are showing God that you mean serious
business with Him, and that you have every intention of pulling
down His divine supernatural protection to cover you on all of
the basics that you are Pleading the Blood of His Son on.
3. The Index Card
What I have found to be very helpful is to write all of the
above down on an index card. Here is my recommendation:
a) Take an index card and write at the top of
it the words "Pleading the Blood of Jesus." This way you
know this card is for Pleading the Blood of Jesus.
b) On the front of the card, write down and
number each of the items that you want protected under the
Blood of Jesus. The six items mentioned above should all be on
this list. Then write down anything else that you want covered
and protected under His Blood.
c) Then write on the back of the card the blood
prayer itself as worded above. You can use a "fill in the
blanks system" on the back of the card since you will be
Pleading the Blood on different things. You can write the
following on the back of the card:
"Father,
in the name of Jesus, I plead the Blood of Jesus on
............. I Plead the Blood of Jesus against
................
Father, in the name of Jesus, I have full faith
and belief that the Blood of Jesus will protect me against
any of the things that I have just Pled His Blood
on.
Thank you Father.
Thank you Jesus."
On one little index card, you will have everything you need
on how to properly Plead the Blood of Jesus on whatever it is
that you want His protection on. You will have all of the
basics as to what needs to be covered with the Blood in your
life on the front of the card and the exact prayer written on
the back as to how to properly Plead the Blood on each of those
basic things.
4. Frequency
How often will you have to Plead the Blood of Jesus on all
of the above in order to get God’s maximum protection on these
things? Through personal trial and error with the Lord on all
of this, I have found out that in my own personal life that I
have to Plead the Blood of Jesus on all of the above items on a
once per month basis.
You may each have to find your own personal frequency factor
with the Lord on how often to Plead the Blood on all of the
above. But do not be surprised if God does not tell you the
same thing – once per month. I believe that a month is a basic
unit of time that God plays with in our "game of life." Just
like all professional sports games have units of time that the
games are centered around, I believe the same may be true in
the game of life that we are all involved in with the Lord.
I have personally found out the hard way that if I want
God’s full protection on all of the above items – that I have
to Plead the Blood on the night before the beginning of the
next month. In other words, if I want God’s protection for the
month of May, then I have to Plead the Blood on all of the
above on the last day of April.
I have been burned several times when I forgot to do this
and was subjected to several abnormal attacks on the first day
of that new month. It would be like a football player
forgetting to put his helmet on for even one play. Not having
his helmet on for even that one play could get him killed due
to the intensity of the game that he is playing.
5. Applying a Bloodline
Here is another thing that you can do, especially for those
of you who own a house with property surrounding it. You can
walk around the entire property Pleading the Blood of Jesus as
you walk completely around it in a circle. What you are doing
is applying a Bloodline around your property.
I have read of cases where Christian farmers have done this
to protect their livestock and flock from attacks from wild
predators. In one case in particular, a farmer was having a
problem with some of his farm animals being killed by a wild
wolf. He went ahead and applied a Bloodline around his entire
property. When he woke up the next day, he found a dead wolf
lying about two feet passed the point where he had just Pled
the Blood over the day before.
In other words, the wolf had crossed over about two feet
into the farmer’s territory and had crossed the Bloodline. The
wolf was stricken dead as soon as he crossed this Bloodline.
The farmer had no more problems with any of his animals being
killed after that one wolf had been struck down.
Pleading the Blood and applying a Bloodline around your
house and property can also help protect you from earthquakes
or tornadoes. There have been documented cases out in
California where some Christian families had Pled the Blood
over their houses and property.
An earthquake had then hit the entire area. All of the
houses in their subdivision had sustained some type of damage
from the earthquake, but there was no damage whatsoever to the
houses that had the Blood pled on them by the Christian
families!
6. Trains and Planes
Another area in which you can Plead the Blood on is whenever
you are getting ready to get on a train or plane to go out of
town. Simply Plead the Blood on the train or plane either right
before you get ready to board it, or do it the night before. I
don’t have to tell you how many plane wrecks we have seen over
the last 5-10 years. Better to be safe than sorry on this
issue.
Now I will show you how to Plead the Blood of Jesus for any
actual deliverance that you may need to help get you out of any
dire predicaments that you may have fallen into.
How to Plead the Blood
of Jesus for Deliverance
It gets a little trickier when Pleading the Blood against
something that may have already come against you. These are
what I call battle situations.
You or someone else may have just been hit with a
life-threatening illness or disease such as cancer. You may
know someone who is an alcoholic or drug addict and they can’t
seem to break free from it. You may know someone who is
severely depressed and they are seriously contemplating
suicide. Another person may be under severe demonic attack as a
result of engaging in some type of occult activity.
There are a million and one things that could
come against anyone of us at any time. If something has
already come against you and you are caught in its grip,
then you are going to have to go on the offensive and try
to take it out by Pleading the Blood of Jesus directly
against it!
When you run across a situation that will need God’s power
to deliver you, you will usually need some kind of
battle strategy in which to war against it.
The person may not be saved and you may have to get them saved
before God can move into to deliver them. Another person may be
saved, but not walking in a full surrender with the Lord, and
you may have to get that person to commit to making a full
surrender before God will move in to help him out.
This is where the Holy Spirit is really going to be coming
in big time. Depending on the kind of predicament you are
dealing with, you will have to be guided and led by the Holy
Spirit as to how to handle each one of these battle situations.
Each one of these battle situations are completely unique and
different. No two battle situations are ever alike. This is why
you are going to have to be heavily dependent on the Holy
Spirit on how to handle each one of these battle
situations.
This will now lead us into the next section, the personal
testimonies
of our website - where I have written up some of the victories
that have been obtained by giving the appropriate
battle advice on each one of these unique and
different battle situations. As you will see as I explain what
happened on each case, I always "tap in" to get any leadings,
direction or advice that the Holy Spirit wants to give to me on
how to handle the specific battle situation that I am now faced
with.
I also give you some of the specific battle prayers that I
gave to some of these people to help get them delivered out of
some real nasty predicaments. As you review each one of these
cases, you will then get an idea on how to handle something
that may have already come against you where you will need
God’s deliverance and/or healing power to help get you out of
it.
All of these cases have one thing in common, and this
is where many Christians are really missing out on being
able to get delivered from some of their bad predicaments -
and that one common denominator is that all of these people
had to be taught how to go on the offensive against
whatever adversity had just come their way.
Too many Christians are way too passive in their
approach when confronted with any type of severe adversity.
The Bible tells us that all Christians carry the full power
of God on the inside of them through the Person of the Holy
Spirit. The Bible tells us that we are all soldiers of
Jesus Christ. If God is telling us that we are all soldiers
of His Son Jesus Christ, then this means we all have God’s
power at our disposal in which to engage and defeat any
enemy that may try and come against us.
The problem is that most Christians have never been taught
how to engage with the enemy when he does come against them.
Most Christians have never been taught how to use spiritual
warfare to engage with an enemy head on. As a result, many
Christians are literally getting their heads knocked off in the
arena of life when adversity does come knocking on their
doors.
This article, and the "Testimonies"
section of our website, will attempt to show you how to use one
of the most powerful, if not the most powerful form of
spiritual warfare to take on any enemy and come out completely
victorious - and that is learning how to Plead the Blood of
Jesus Christ directly against whatever adversity may come your
way.
Before you go into the actual testimonies, let me give you
some major power verses from the Bible showing you that all
Christians carry the power of God on the inside of them through
the Person of the Holy Spirit. And if God is empowering all of
us with His power, then He is obviously going to want us to do
something with it - and that is to use it when we need it!
'Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit,'
says the Lord of hosts. (Zechariah 4:6)
This one little verse should be memorized by all Christians.
In one powerful sentence, God is telling us that things get
accomplished not by our power or by our might, but by the power
of the Holy Spirit.
- "But you shall receive POWER when the Holy
Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be witnesses to Me
in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end
of the earth." (Acts 1:8)
- "For our gospel did not come to you in word
only, but also in POWER, and in the Holy Spirit ..." (1
Thessalonians 1:5)
- "For the kingdom of God is not in word but in
POWER." (1 Corinthians 4:20)
- "... in mighty signs and wonders, by the POWER
of the Spirit of God …" (Romans 15:19)
These verses are talking about the signs and wonders that
the early apostles walked with. These verses are specifically
telling us that all of the signs and wonders that were done by
the early apostles were done by the power of the Holy Spirit.
And if we all have the same Holy Spirit that the early apostles
did, then we too are capable of having God manifest His power
to us through the Holy Spirit like He did with them.
The Bible tells us that God is no respecter of persons -
which means what He will do for one, He will do for
another.
- "And with GREAT POWER the apostles gave witness
to the resurrection of the Lord Jesus. And great grace was
upon them all." (Acts 4:33)
- "I CAN DO ALL THINGS through Christ who
strengthens me." (Philippians 4:13)
Notice the word "all" – that there is nothing that God
cannot do through you or for you if He chooses to do so.
"Behold, I give you the authority to trample on
serpents and scorpions, and over ALL the power of the
enemy, and NOTHING shall by any means hurt you." (Luke
10:19)
I am repeating this verse once again. Again, notice Jesus is
telling the apostles that they will have His power to defeat
all of the power of their enemies and that
nothing shall be able to hurt them! This verse should
burned into all of our memory banks so that we never, ever
forget who we serve and follow in this life and how powerful
our Lord really is!
This one verse is telling us that we all have God’s
supernatural power and authority operating through us. We just
have to learn how to walk and flow with God's power that has
been made available to all of us through the Holy Spirit.
Now on to the actual personal testimonies, so you can get an
idea on how to Plead the Blood of Jesus when you will need it
for a real life combat situation.
Personal Testimonies Section of Website
After reading this article, it would our recommendation that
you to go to our "Testimonies"
section and print out and study very carefully some of the
powerful testimonies we have. These testimonies will show you
how powerful Pleading the Blood and forming out the appropriate
battle prayers to fit the situation you are dealing with really
is.
Due to the personal nature of many of these testimonies, I
will not be releasing names of the actual people involved.
However, I do have all of their permissions to release their
stories to you so that you can all learn from them. Notice the
wide variety of things that you can Plead the Blood of Jesus
against as you study these testimonies.
One more thing. In order to be able to receive forgiveness
from the Blood of Jesus for any of your sins, there is
something that you must do. You must first confess the sin to
God, and then God will grant you His forgiveness. It is the
same thing for the deliverance and protection that is in the
Blood of Jesus.
In order to be able to receive God’s deliverance and
protection from the Blood of Jesus, there is something that you
must do. And that something is "Pleading" the
Blood for the protection or deliverance that you are looking
for. As you will see in each one of these stories, the Blood of
Jesus had to be specifically pled against
whatever the nature of the attack was.
The Pleading of Jesus' Blood in each one of
these cases was incorporated into what I call a
battle prayer. These battle
prayers are extremely powerful and extremely effective when
properly worded and prayed out. In all of these cases,
complete deliverance and victory came about very
quickly.

Conclusion
As you will see when reviewing some of our actual
testimonies, there is definite power in Pleading the Blood of
Jesus for deliverance and protection. You can use it in a wide
variety of adverse situations, and in all of our cases, victory
and deliverance came about very quickly!
If either you or anyone else that you know has
been caught in any kind of adverse predicament –
try going on the offensive as these people
did. Form out the
appropriate battle prayer that will fit your
particular situation and then take your enemy head on like
David did with Goliath.
I will be doing additional articles in the future going into
much more detail on the different strategies that you can take
when using spiritual warfare so as to help you live a
victorious and overcoming life in our Lord and Savior Jesus
Christ.
