Seven Places Where Jesus Shed His Blood

They triumphed over him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony -Revelation 12:11.

1.Garden of Gethsemane:

           The first place where Jesus shed His blood is the Garden of Gethsemane. In the Garden of Gethsemane, He sweated drops of blood. And being in anguish, he prayed more earnestly, and his sweat was like drops of blood falling to the ground - Luke 22:44. Jesus won back our will power to resist temptation because He overcame the greatest temptation.

 2.Stripes on Jesus:

             By His stripes, we are healed. Who Himself bore our sins in His own body on the tree, that we, having died to sins, might live for righteousness - by whose stripes you were healed -1 Peter 2:24. Jesus won back our health as He had carried all our sicknesses.  

3. Crown of Thorns:

             And the soldiers twisted a crown of thorns and put it on His head - John 19:2. Cursed is the ground for your sake; In toil you shall eat of it all the days of your life. Both thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you, and you shall eat the herb of the field. In the sweat of your face you shall eat bread - Genesis 3:17–19. Jesus won back our prosperity by breaking the curse of lack and poverty.  

4. Pierced Hands:

              Then they crucified Him, and divided His garments - Mathew 27:35. They nailed His hands and feet to the cross. God placed all dominion and authority in the hands of Adam and Eve. Because of sin, Adam and Eve lost that dominion and authority. Jesus won back dominion and authority in our hands by His blood.  

5. Pierced Feet:

          Then the soldiers came and broke the legs of the first and of the other who was crucified with Jesus. But when they came to Jesus and saw that He was already dead, they did not break His legs – John 19:32. Every place on which the sole of your foot treads shall be yours - Deuteronomy 11:24. Jesus won back dominion and authority over the places we walk.  

6. Pierced Heart:

           But one of the soldiers pierced His side with a spear, and immediately blood and water came out - John 19:34. Jesus won back our joy.

7. Jesus bled internally:

           But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities - Isaiah 53:5. Jesus won deliverance from our inner hurts. Peace and joy are released to us mentally, emotionally and spiritually.

                                                    

PRAYER: Dear Lord, We thank You for shedding Your blood for us. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
