Living a Life that Pleads the Blood
Are you familiar with the phrase, “plead the blood?” would it surprise you that nowhere in the Bible do we find that phrase? The idea of pleading the blood came from the first Passover in Exodus Chapter twelve.
It isn’t a magic formula just by saying those words. Pleading the blood can actually be a lifestyle.
How did the children of Israel plead the blood during the first Passover?
4 Rules for Overcoming
God fights for you. It is not your battle to fight, but the Lord’s. How did the walls of Jericho fall? Marching, trumpets, and shouting? No, God knocked those walls down. How did Gideon win his battle against the Midianites? Trumpets, torches, and clay pitchers? God struck the enemy with fear and confusion.

The emptiness of your home? The never-ending pain or the lingering illness? If you can answer “Yes” to any of those questions, you need to pray to Jehovah Tsaba.
