Meditation and prayer points
Father I surrender my life to you. I follow you. Father fill me with the Holy Spirit. Cause me to walk in your statues. Cause me to keep your word. Cause me to do your statues. Cause me to live my life in your footsteps. Give me wisdom and revelation knowledge of you that the eyes of my understanding will be enlightened. That I may know the hope of your calling. I surrender all to you to live your life through me and in me. Father permit me to accompany you on your journey to Golgotha Calvary now.
Lord Jesus I remember how you were scourged. I remember how after this Pilate sentenced you to crucifixion a punishment for the most serious of criminals. I remember how you were repeatedly struck. I remember how streaming in blood as you walked your blood was shed seven times on the way and right up to and in Golgotha Calvary. Thank you Lord Jesus for your sacrifice for me.
Your blood was shed:
1]
In the Garden of Gethsemane when your sweat became blood as you prayed. Your extreme levels of stress caused the blood vessels around your sweat glands to tighten and as they relaxed they ruptured. The blood from them went into your sweat glands and your sweat pushed the blood to the surface. Here your sweat and blood mixed. You started to sweat the admixed blood and sweat as droplets of blood from your forehead, nose and face.
Oh what levels of anxiety and stress you were under. It makes me tremble. Tremble, tremble, tremble O Lord Jesus. Tremble.
This started up again when they added physical stress to your ordeal with the heavy cross that they forced you to carry. Episodes of droplets of blood admixed with sweat continued to stream down your body and you were bathed in sweat of blood all the way to Golgotha.
Your internal blood vessels ruptured due to extreme physical and mental stress. This was for the healing of my soul. Thank you Lord Jesus for your sacrifice for me.
Dear Lord Jesus through your blood you have conquered the world and the devil. Now through the blood I can have sanctification of the Holy Spirit. I claim sanctification of the Holy Spirit. Through your blood dear Lord Jesus give me the full sanctification of the Holy Spirit. Take this vessel and make it completely yours. Thank you for doing so.
2]
In the House of Caiaphas when you were beaten on the face. They pulled your beard so hard you bled from the face. This was so that one day I could look like you. You paid this price so I could be transformed into your image of holiness and righteousness. Thank you Lord Jesus for your sacrifice for me.
O dear Lord Jesus through your blood my sins have been forgiven completely and I have been declared as a righteous person. I can enjoy this glory in you. Dear Lord Jesus I thank you for it right now.
3]
At the Praetorium you were scourged and a crown of thorns cruelly placed on and forced into your head. You bled from the forehead. Your blood was shed a third time. Alleluia to the lamb of God. This was for the healing of my mind to give me a positive mindset. Thank you Lord Jesus for your sacrifice for me.
O God I claim divine healing to go through my whole body and mind. All pessimism is banished and replaced by optimism right now in Jesus holy name. Dear Lord Jesus by your blood my mind can be cleansed completely of all negative thoughts and made whole again with positive thoughts of all things good. I thank you Lord Jesus that I am of a sound upbeat mind. I have a sound positive mindset in all circumstances. Alleluia to the Lamb of God.
4]
The soldiers whipped your back with whips of many balls of metal. The many metal balls with nails in them pierced your body. Your back was literally torn apart. Your bones exposed and your internal organs damaged. You tell us In Psalm 22:14b; 'and all my bones are out of joint,'. in Psalm 22:17 you say, 'I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.' [All my bones can be seen. My enemies look at me and stare.]
This was for my healing for 'By his stripes we were healed.' Your blood was shed a fourth time for my healing and for my health. Thank you Lord Jesus for your sacrifice for me.
Dear Lord Jesus you took away my infirmities and took away my sickness. By your stripes I was healed. Legally speaking 2,000 years ago you healed me so sickness in my body now is illegal because you already paid the price for my healing. So I claim that healing now. I declare that I am well. I am not sick. I am in divine health. By the power of the Holy Spirit I command this sickness to leave my body, the temple of God, right now. I command it to go now in Jesus name. I was healed and made whole by Jesus' sacrifice on the cross. You cannot remain in my body. Leave now in Jesus holy mighty name. I am not sick. I am well. I am in divine health. Lord Jesus I give you all the praise, all the glory and all the majesty for my divine health. Thank you. Shout: Praise be to Jesus Christ! Alleluia! Now give the Lord a clap.
Father your flesh was torn by the scourges. The muscles in your back were so damaged from the scourges that you found it hard to breath and move. You slumped over just to be able to walk upright. Your head crowned with thorns, you lost a great quantity of blood. You were so weakened you could scarcely walk. You yet had to carry that heavy cross a giant load on your shoulders for me. The soldiers struck you rudely and repeatedly and you fell several times. With each fall and under the weight of that cross the pain of all the wounds in your head and your members were renewed. You were bathed in sweat and blood all the while. Your strength and life ebbing slowly out of you with each excruciating step. The soldiers fearing that you would die before getting to Golgotha [denying them of your execution] forced Simon of Cyrene to carry the cross some of the way so you could regain some strength. In much torment and pain did you carry on. Your weakness was extreme, and the cruelty of your executioners excessive.
At Golgotha with much violence you were stripped of your garments by your executioners. Your inner garments had stuck to your torn flesh yet they dragged them off so rudely and so roughly that your skin came off with them.
You were consumed by anguish and pain the whole time. Never was there such suffering. Never was there such pain as onto thine. You suffered much for my redemption.
Thank you Lord Jesus for your sacrifice for me.
5]
Your blood was shed the fifth time when they pierced your hands with big seven-inch [18 centimetres] blunt nails on the cross. The nails were driven through your wrists to support your body weight. Then they hung you up with both arms outstretched on either side.
Father I remember how the weight of your body pulling down on your arms made your breathing extremely difficult. I shudder when I remember how your hands became paralysed from the immense pain your were in because the nails had severed your front forearm nerves [the Median Nerves]. Oh what pain Lord Jesus. What pain you were in! This was so that my work would be accepted. Thank you Lord Jesus for your sacrifice for me. Thank you for your love.
Father I declare that I am a blessed person. I will never live on stony pitch. I am a blessed person. Jesus took my curse 2,000 years ago so I am not under the curse of the law. I am under the blessing of our Lord Jesus Christ. So God I am blessed personally. My whole house is blessed. My ministry is blessed. My work is blessed and I am the source of blessings to others. I rejoice and I take away all poverty consciousness. Lord Jesus I am completely redeemed from the curse of the law of poverty (spiritual, physical, health or finance). I rejoice and I take away all other generational curses consciousness. I am completely redeemed from the curse of the law of singleness. I am completely redeemed from the curse of the law of a sickness [mention e.g. fibroid, cancer, addiction, porn, etc]. I am completely redeemed from the curse of the law of all generational curses. My whole house is completely redeemed from the curse of the law of all generational curses. Lord Jesus by your blood and death you banished consciousness of all generational curses and curse of the law. I praise your holy name for that. Thank you.
6]
Your blood was shed for the sixth time when they pierced your feet with big blunt nails to fasten them to the cross. This was so that I may be born again and the Church (The Kingdom of God) established on earth.
Father I remember how your executioners bent your legs at 45° and nailed them to the upright part of the crucifix. I remember how in this position you lost strength in both legs within a few minutes.
Once your legs gave way, your body weight was transferred to your arms. Slowly your shoulders were dragged from their sockets. I remember how a few minutes later your elbows and wrists now about seven inches [18 centimetres] longer also gave way.
I remember that with no other choice you had to bear your full weight on your chest. This led to immediate breathing problems for you as your weight had caused your rib cage to lift up. All you could do was breath in with no breathing out. I remember clearly Lord Jesus how with the help of the Holy Spirit you did not suffocate as a result of this perpetual inhalation. You would have otherwise.
Father, I remember that the result of this was lack of oxygen in your blood. This caused damage to your muscles and blood vessels. The damaged blood vessels allowed the fluid in them to leak [diffuse] into the saclike structure [the pericardium] surrounding your heart, into the lungs, into your muscles, and into the chest area. This fluid built up over the six hours you were heaving up and down to try to breath on the cross.
After six long hours hanging on that cross your heart and lungs stopped working. With multiple organ failure You exclaimed, ‘It is finished!' You bowed your head and gave up the Spirit.
Lord Jesus You were slain for my sins. You died in torment. Thank you, Lord Jesus, for your sacrifice for me.
Lord Jesus I thank you that I am redeemed from death and hell through your death on the cross. I died together with you. Through your resurrection I am resurrected again and through your ascension I have been ascended to the right hand of God. So God I love you even though I am still in my physical body here on earth. Spiritually I have been resurrected with you and I am seated in the right hand of God right now. I am holy. I am righteous. So Father I will be on the right hand of God in glory. Alleluia. Lord God I worship you. I worship your holy name.
7]
Your blood was shed a seventh time when they pierced your ribcage. The diffused fluid from your damaged blood vessels gushed out with the blood.
Father, St John, your Apostle recorded what happened when Pilate's soldiers wanted to check that you were indeed dead [John 19:31-34 NIV]. Death time for this type of crucifixion was 24 hours. You died within six.
"(31) Now it was the day of Preparation, and the next day was to be a special Sabbath. Because the Jewish leaders did not want the bodies left on the crosses during the Sabbath, they asked Pilate to have the legs broken and the bodies taken down. (32) The soldiers therefore came and broke the legs of the first man who had been crucified with Jesus, and then those of the other. (33) But when they came to Jesus and found that he was already dead, they did not break his legs. (34) Instead, one of the soldiers pierced Jesus’ side with a spear, bringing a sudden flow of blood and water."
This was to wash away and cleanse me of all sins. This to secure my complete redemption. Thank you Lord Jesus for your sacrifice for me.
I am righteous in Christ Jesus. I am holy. I am sanctified. By his stripes I was healed. I am not under control of sickness. I am not under the curse of the law. I am a blessed person. God is pouring out his abundant blessings in my life and I have been resurrected with Christ Christ by faith. The glory of God is mine. I am in divine health. I am prosperous. I have abundant life in Christ Jesus.
I thank you Lord Jesus that by your redeeming grace flowing down to me I am made holy, righteous, healed, resurrected, blessed. I give you all the praise and the majesty.
Father you obtained eternal redemption for me by offering your blood to the Lord God. You shed your blood for me and for us all. The blood of God himself was shed for my redemption, for my healing, and for my wholeness. Your precious blood was taken to heaven by the Holy Spirit and given to God Almighty and placed on the mercy seat.
I affirm my new identity. By your blood and death I have been transferred from the devil to the Holy Spirit to the throne of God. I have been translated from disease to health and healing; from poverty and curses to blessings. I am blessed in all things. I am rich. I am well. I have divine citizenship.
Father thank you for your love, for your sacrifice and for shedding your blood for me, for my redemption, for my health and healing, for my prosperity, for my blessings and for my protection.
[Pray in the spirit on these points.]
Lord Jesus I bless your holy name [3ce].
Alleluia. Amen.
Break bread and have wine with Jesus
Father I come to the table and say thank you Lord for your love, for your sacrifice, for your forgiveness, for your strength. Thank you for dying for me.
Do this in memory of me [Meditation--->]
Say: Body of Jesus 7 times over the bread. This bread is now Body of Jesus Christ.
Father I take the wafer (or bread) and I break it now. Jesus' body was broken for me so I break the bread now in the same way.
Father I partake of the body now for resurrection power, life and strength of Jesus in every single cell in my body. Lord Jesus I receive this bread as your flesh.
Say: Blood of Jesus 7 times over the juice or wine. This wine is now Blood of Jesus Christ. Father I take the cup and I partake of the blood now for cleansing me of all sins. For cleansing me of all disease, sickness and infirmity. Cleansing my body of everything bad. Lord Jesus I receive this cup as your blood.
Father I pray that this mingling of your body and blood will bring me everlasting joy, comfort, peace and abundance of life in God. I give you thanks Lord Jesus Christ.
I declare that:
I am not sick for the Lord is my healer {Psalm 103:3}.
I am not weak the Lord is my help and my strength {Psalm 29:11}.
I am not bound He is my freedom {John 8:36}.
I am not defeated He is the one who gives me conquering power. I am more than a conqueror through Him {Romans 8:37}.
I am not lacking because He says no good thing will He withhold from him who walks uprightly { Psalm 84:11}. There is no lack in my life.
I am not afraid or plagued his word declares that no plague will come near me or my household {Psalm 91:10}.
I am not running from the devil. I am resisting him and he is running away from me
I am not shackled by demons.
I am not shackled by the power of the enemy.
I am not shackled by fear.
I am not shackled by sins.
For the God I serve will deliver me {Daniel 6:16}.
I am not losing the battle for the lord is fighting for me { Exodus 14:14}.
Lord Jesus I give you thanks for your healing, and for your blessings, and for your protection, and for your love. I worship and I praise your holy name. I adore you. Thank you for my liberty and freedom. I thank you for my complete redemption.
Conclusion
Lord Jesus I love you. I love you with all my heart. You know that I love you and wish to love you daily more and more. Lord Jesus I am yours. I wait upon you O Lamb of God. Take my body and make it yours in Jesus name. Amen.
[Briefly pray in the spirit on this point.]
Thank you Lord Jesus. I praise your holy name. I worship you. Alleluia. Amen.
Apply the Blood of God
Lord Jesus I pray that you will cover me and my family with your blood and Lord I plead the blood.
