Pleading The protection of Blood of Jesus over yourself, your property and against Satanic Attacks

This is a subject that I have personally applied in my life and thought about writing on it many times because I knew that most Christians did not understand it. In my search for other information I ran across an article on it by Michael Bradley. After reading his statement of faith which I agreed with I then read through the article. I realized he had done all of the research, provided Biblical documentation and answered the questions of What, When, why and How.

I agreed with everything that he had written so with his permission I have reprinted it here for the benefit of anyone that needs it.

Michaels Article

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, your loved ones and your circumstances.

In this article, I will show you exactly how to plead the Blood, what to plead it on, some of the 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 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 battle prayers – when you need God’s deliverance and/or healing power to help you get out of a dire situation that you may already be involved in.

I will back all of this up with some powerful testimonies with myself and some of my personal friends, and how Pleading the Blood helped rescue and deliver them out of some real dire predicaments. The information in this article has been battle tested and battle proven.

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 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 and denominations that 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 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 that there are three things contained in the Blood of Jesus – forgiveness, deliverance and protection. Most 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 Jesus while still living down here on this earth. I will briefly discuss each of these three things.

1. Forgiveness

As Christians, we all know that 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 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 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 to our 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 the following testimonies, 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 disease or illness, 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 entitles 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 some specific Scripture verses proving this point for 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." (Revelations 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 come against us from the dark side.

Many Christians are not aware of this second fact about the Blood of Jesus - that the Blood can also be used to engage with our enemies when they do try to launch 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 Christians to realize and 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 attempt to come against them with any type of unjust actions or attacks.

Here are four more powerful verses from Scripture showing that all Christians now have God’s power and anointing at their disposal to use when they 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 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 use what is 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, personal, intimate relationship with the Lord. If we do that, 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, but the implication appears to be that He really cannot find too 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 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 ths 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 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 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 get us out of a dire predicament, 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 also 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 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 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 that the answer is yes, and that is why God the Father seems willing to honor 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, there is one more area that each Christian must make a 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 that you may need, there are two requirements that must be met.

1. Saved

You must be a saved and born again Christian. A non-believer 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 in the New Testament. Only born again Christian believers can use the blood of Jesus. For those of you who are not saved and born again, there are other articles in our site on what it means to become saved and born again, and exactly how to get saved if you decide that you want to turn from the kind of life that you have been living.

2. The Full Surrender

For those of you who are already saved, there is now one more thing that you will all have to do to really get God’s best to start to flow 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 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 on to the real playing field where the real walk with the Lord is at. God is wanting you to 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 everything in your life.

If you are single, God will be choosing who your mate will be. He knows who is best for you, you do not. God will be choosing what your call or calls will be in Him, as He knows what your true potential and capabilities are going to be in this life, you do not.

The Bible tells us that with the measure we use, will be the measure measured back to us. In other words, if you want God’s best to flow into your life, then you 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 missing the boat with God. 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, yours is not! God can see into the future and knows exactly what is going to happen, 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. 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 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 a lot 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 God, 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 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 dead serious about this full surrender and that you will continue to let Him have full control over 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 God 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 as You see fit.

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 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 just now turned the reigns of your life over to God and He will now start to lead, guide and direct your life into the direction that He will want it to go in.

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 on those things you specifically want 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 or healing power to get you out of a bad situation.

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 that 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 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 supernaturally 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 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 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 catastrophe's that may come against me. I plead the Blood of Jesus against any diseases, illnesses or sicknesses that could possibly come against me.

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 to in that 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 want covered and protected under His Blood. That 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 are 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 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 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 that 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 also 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 those 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 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 feel 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 – 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 subject 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 that 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 Christians 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 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 or against someone else that you may know. 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 will 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 get an idea on how to handle something that may have already come against you where you will need God’s deliverance or healing power to help get you out of it.

All of these cases have one thing in common, and this is where a lot of Christians are missing out on being able to get delivered from some really 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 too passive in their approach when confronted with any type of serious adversity. The Bible tells us that all Christians carry the full power of God on the inside of them through 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 that means we all have God’s power at our disposal in which to engage and defeat any enemy that may try to 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 head on and come out 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 section of our website – 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 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. 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 that 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 be memorized by all Christians and burned into your memory banks. This is a powerful truth that really needs to be fully grasped and fully assimilated into our mindset and way of thinking.

This one verse is telling us that we all have God’s power and authority operating through us. We just have to learn how to walk and flow with God's supernatural 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 need it for a real life combat situation.

Conclusion

As you can see 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 sometimes victory and deliverance will come about very quickly!

If either you or anyone else that you know has been caught in any kind of dire predicament – try going on the offensive and let God work in your behalf as Others have done. Form out the appropriate battle prayer that will fit your particular situation and take your enemy head on like David did with Goliath.
