Prayer Summary for January 21

Shared…

The following excerpt and song were taken from The Power of the Blood by H.A. Maxwell Whyte:

Protection From Muggers

A lady who originally worshipped in our church before she went to work as a nurse in Chicago was suddenly accosted one evening by two youths, one of whom was wielding a knife. The lady saw the youth approaching with the open knife pointed at her stomach. Her first reaction was to freeze, but then she remembered her authority as a child of God, and she spoke the Word. She said, “I plead the blood of Jesus against you, and I rebuke you in Jesus’ name.” Then lunging forward she said, “Give me that knife,” and the youth released it into her hand. She then moved toward him and said, “You stand right there.” Then she commanded the second young man-in the name of Jesus-to go into an adjacent building and telephone the police to come and pick the boys up. He immediately obeyed her. When the police arrived, the youth who had called them ran away. The police arrested the boy whom she had been detaining at knifepoint; later they picked up the other boy also. The lady was unharmed because Jesus said, “Nothing shall by any means hurt you” (Luke 10:19)

Just a woman? Yes, but she is “mighty through God to the pulling down of strong holds” (2 Corinthians 10:4)

Spontaneous Overflowing

At the end of January, 1908, in Westport Hall, Kilsyth, Scotland, there was a visitation of the Holy Spirit that began spontaneously by the pleading of the blood. A brother named John Reid, sitting in the middle of the prayer group, suddenly raised his hand and started to plead the blood, saying, “Blood, blood, blood!” Immediately the Spirit descended upon the group, and thirteen young people went to their knees and began to speak in other tongues. It was the pleading of the blood that brought the outpouring.

It was around this same time that Mrs. Woodworth-Etter was holding her great meetings in Los Angeles and Chicago. She used to hold her arms aloft and say to the people, “I sprinkle the blood of Jesus upon you,” and she made a motion with her hands as if she were actually doing it. People would come running to the front of the auditorium, and many fell prostrate, speaking in tongues and receiving healing.

The pleading of the blood was an accepted revelation of the Holy Spirit in the early days of the Pentecostal outpouring. However, like many other divine revelations, it was lost as man’s organizations came in to replace the supernatural workings of the Spirit.

No Limit to Using the Blood in Faith

In the early days of the outpouring of the Spirit in the twentieth century, Mrs. Nazum of California used to teach her listeners in her Pentecostal meetings to sprinkle the blood upon their loved ones, their children, and all that God had given them. Didn’t the children of Israel actually splash blood on their buildings? Is there any limit to using the blood in faith against satanic powers and the darkness of the world? Wouldn’t it be good if congregations of Christians were to stand united in pleading the blood of Jesus against the demonic forces now trying to take over our cities and our young people?

I believe that the church has yet to discover the deeper dimension of spiritual warfare through pleading the blood. Great miracles can take place if we learn this secret. There is wonder-working power in the blood!

“There Is Power in the Blood”
(Words and Music by Lewis E. Jones, 1899)

Verse 1
Would you be free from the burden of sin?
There’s power in the blood, power in the blood;
Would you over evil a victory win?
There’s wonderful power in the blood.

Verse 2
Would you be free from your passion and pride?
There’s power in the blood, power in the blood;
Come for a cleansing to Calvary’s tide;
There’s wonderful power in the blood.

Verse 3
Would you be whiter, much whiter than snow?
There’s power in the blood, power in the blood;
Sin stains are lost in its life-giving flow.
There’s wonderful power in the blood.

Verse 4
Would you do service for Jesus your King?
There’s power in the blood, power in the blood;
Would you live daily His praises to sing?
There’s wonderful power in the blood.

Refrain
There is power, power, wonder-working power
In the blood of the Lamb;
There is power, power, wonder-working power
In the precious blood of the Lamb

Prayed…

We hold the blood of Jesus against any kind of organizational thing that would take away or make less the power that is in that precious blood
B-L-O-O-D, blood, blood, blood, blood, blood, Thank You for the blood
We make a big deal of the precious blood of Jesus this morning
By faith we get ourselves lined up-actively speaking and declaring the blood of Jesus, today!
We plead the blood of Jesus over every family member, ministry, authority, gift and calling in the Church
Continually, pleading the blood over this nation-the United States of America, from shore to shore, top to bottom, and side to side
We apply it over every form of transportation-car, truck, train, airplane, or boat
Praying a hedge of protection over the political leaders, over every branch of the military, and over the military leaders
There is healing in the blood, there is progress in the blood, and protection in and through the blood of Jesus
Wherever there is needing to be a way through, that way is through the covering and the speaking and walking in the blood of Jesus
Many ways are new, many things we have never gone through-so we watch over these ways today!
Thank You, Father, we watch over these, they are plans for the future
Some things we circle around, we keep our spiritual eyes upon them
Yes, Lord, we cover that word activity in the blood
Right words will be spoken in the name of Jesus!
Taking authority and holding the blood over wrong declarations that have been made, over wrong decisions
Praying out the new: new days, new plans, new revelations, and new destinations
Staying on course, staying in line, staying in the plan all the time
Praying over the conduct of ministry in the Church that it would be right all the time!
Thank you for Holy Ghost alignment in the Church
Where the power of the blood has been set aside or lost in these days, we declare that it will come back stronger
Greater revelation will come forth, in Jesus’ name!
Declarations about the blood and faith in that blood would begin to increase
Cutting some things off right now, in Jesus’ name
Doors that need to be closed we close them this morning, and put a lock of the blood upon that door-It will never be opened again, it is over!
What is the state of your state?
Applying the blood of the covenant over the future, plans and affairs of this state
Declaring that the blood keeps the destroyer back and that it brings light and life in the name of Jesus
You have made it known, and you have made it plain-that it is imperative to be in the right state
By the blood and the Holy Ghost, You are revealing and transmitting wisdom to the Church of the living God
We apply the blood over the intertwined and intermingled affairs of the states
It is final and important to You, that the lifeblood of Jesus pours through the Church and through the state of states
The cleansing, healing, and life-giving blood must flow to the capital
We call for a purification in the state
Binding deception that would try to divert the plan of God
Applying the blood over all the parameters and boundaries
Boldness and courage to use and apply the blood
Declaring that no strategy of the Devil would hijack this nation
Spirit if Antichrist, we hold the blood against you
Father, strengthen and encourage the government leaders to walk in Your way
Calling for safety and protection over the steps they are to walk
No, the plans of the enemy will be exposed in the name of Jesus
They will be uncovered and revealed
Sending ministering spirits out to speak and declare
Advancement and wisdom for this day
Divine strategies and plans of God to be revealed
Calling for confusion in the camp of the enemy
We call for light, in the name of Jesus
The saving power is making things clear and making a way
We know that the truth is being revealed and making things right
The blood of Jesus is clearing out some debris and washing it away
Things that looked like they wouldn’t work out, will work out
We seal the words spoken by our President today, with the blood of Jesus
Send supernatural help to him to help our nation
