 The phrase "pleading the blood of Jesus" is not explicitly found in the Bible, but the blood of Jesus is in every word itself. As you read we will learn more.
The concept is rooted in biblical theology and Christian tradition. This phrase typically refers to invoking the sacrificial death and the atoning power of Jesus Christ's blood for protection, deliverance, and cleansing from sin. Here are some key biblical concepts and passages related to this idea:

  1. Atonement and Forgiveness: The blood of Jesus is central to the Christian understanding of atonement and forgiveness of sins.
    • 1 John 1:7: "But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin."
    • Ephesians 1:7: "In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace."
  2. Protection: In the Old Testament, the blood of the Passover lamb was a sign for God's protection over the Israelites.
    • Exodus 12:13: "The blood shall be a sign for you, on the houses where you are. And when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and no plague will befall you to destroy you, when I strike the land of Egypt."
  3. Victory Over Evil: The New Testament speaks of the blood of Jesus as a means of victory over Satan and evil forces.
    • Revelation 12:11: "And they have conquered him by the blood of the Lamb and by the word of their testimony, for they loved not their lives even unto death."
  4. Sanctification: The blood of Jesus is also seen as a means of sanctification, making believers holy and set apart for God.
    • Hebrews 13:12: "So Jesus also suffered outside the gate in order to sanctify the people through his own blood."

When Christians "plead the blood of Jesus," they are often invoking these biblical truths, asking for forgiveness, protection, sanctification, and victory over evil through the power of Christ's sacrificial death. This practice is more common in some Christian traditions than others and is often expressed in prayers, hymns, and spiritual warfare contexts.

Jesus taught us when He said, "IT IS WRITTEN". Jesus gave us a great example when He was confronting temptation against satan:

 Matthew 4:4
 But He answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.

Jesus didn't say I apply My blood against satan but He used the word of God. He said the word of God says this, stating that once God says something it is final and it cannot be reversed. We also need to remember that Jesus is the Word. When we make the statement "IT IS WRITTEN" we are saying Jesus said this!
Jesus being God having the final say so, the final authority. What ever the word says that is it, final, finished.

Psalm 119:9
How can a young man or person keep his way pure? By guarding it according to Your word.

John 6:63
It is the Spirit who gives life; the flesh is no help at all. The words that I have spoken to you are Spirit and life.

 The Holy Spirit as well of Jesus, God is every letter, every number in the word of God.
It is the same as reading Jesus Jesus Jesus or Holy Spirit Holy Spirit Holy Spirit. God Himself is in your eyeballs.
Your taking in His breath,

2 Timothy 3:16
All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness,

Ephesians 5:26
that he might sanctify her anyone, having cleansed her them by the washing of water with the word

This verse is saying that the way the Lord sanctifies and cleanses us is through His Word. The Word of God is the water that cleanses. Jesus spoke of the Word cleansing us in John 15:2-3 (John 3:5, 15:2).

Christ loved the church and gave Himself for it. He set it apart and cleansed it by His Word. The Greek word used here for “word” is “RHEMA,” and means “thing spoken, word” (Thayer’s Greek-English Lexicon).

Hebrews 9:14
how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without blemish to God, purify our conscience from dead works to serve the living God.

1 John 1:7
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin

As you can see from the previous verses that the word of God and the blood of Jesus go hand in hand.

Leviticus 17:11
For the life of the flesh is in the blood,,,

Blood contains white blood cells, which are part of the immune system and function in immune response. We also have the blood of Jesus in our lives to protect us from anything harmful. We as Christians have Jesus spiritual DNA

But he who is joined to the Lord is one spirit with Him

And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

The Certainty of God’s Witness  
1 John 5:6-8
6 This is He who came by water and blood—Jesus Christ; not only by water, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit who bears witness, because the Spirit is truth.

7 For there are three that bear witness: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one.

8 And there are three that bear witness on earth: the Spirit, the water, and the blood; and these three agree as one.

2 Corinthians 7:1
Therefore, having these promises, beloved,
let us cleanse ourselves from all filthiness of the flesh and spirit,
perfecting holiness in the fear of God.
This comes from the word of God:

1 Peter 1:2
 elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father,
in sanctification of the Spirit,
for obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ:
 

Refers to Christ’s sacrificial and atoning work on the cross.

In a similar manner, Peter considers Christ’s blood as the means of establishing a new covenant with God’s redeemed people
(1 Pet 1:19; compare Is 52:15.
Speaking the word, praise and singing praise we are sprinkling the blood because the blood is in God's word.

1 John 1:7
But if we walk in the light as He is in the light,
we have fellowship with one another,
and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.

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.

When we speak God's Word, we are actively engaging with His truth, promises, and the power of the sacrifice of Jesus Christ.

 Faith and Confession: Speaking God's Word involves declaring and confessing the truths found in Scripture. By doing so, we demonstrate our faith in God's promises, including the redemptive power of Jesus' blood. This act of faith opens our hearts to receive God's grace and forgiveness.

 Claiming God's Promises: The Bible contains numerous promises related to forgiveness, healing, redemption, and deliverance, among others.

The spoken words of Scripture are a means for us to express that faith and align our hearts with God's truth, enabling us to experience the fullness of His redemptive work in our lives.

 In conclusion, know the word of God. As you learn the word you find that you know how to use the word for your benefit and the benefit of others and the blood of Jesus is in every word spoken.

In many Christian teachings, speaking the word of God is considered to be closely connected to speaking the blood of Jesus. Here's how this connection is often understood:

The Power of the Word: In Christian theology, the spoken word holds significant power. According to the Bible, God created the world through the power of His spoken word (Genesis 1, John 1:1), and throughout Scripture, words are seen as having the ability to bring about change and transformation.

The Authority of Jesus' Blood: The blood of Jesus is viewed as having immense spiritual significance. It is seen as the ultimate sacrifice for the forgiveness of sins and as a symbol of redemption, cleansing, and victory over evil. Through His death and resurrection, Jesus conquered sin and death, providing believers with salvation and access to God's grace.

Speaking God's Word: When believers speak God's word, they are not simply uttering words but invoking the authority and power of God Himself. By speaking Scripture, believers are aligning themselves with God's truth, promises, and purposes.

Affirming the Work of Jesus: Speaking the word of God is often seen as affirming the work of Jesus, including His sacrificial death and the power of His blood. When believers declare Scripture related to Jesus' sacrifice and redemption, they are proclaiming the significance and efficacy of His blood in their lives.

Claiming God's Promises: Speaking the word of God is also a way for believers to claim God's promises for themselves. When believers speak Scriptures related to Jesus' blood, they are appropriating the benefits of His sacrifice, such as forgiveness, healing, and spiritual protection.

In essence, speaking the word of God as speaking the blood of Jesus is about recognizing the power and authority inherent in both God's spoken word and the sacrifice of Jesus. It's a way for believers to align themselves with God's truth, claim His promises, and experience the fullness of salvation through faith in Jesus Christ.

James 4:8
Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.


Running water cleans by physically dislodging and carrying away dirt, debris, and microorganisms from surfaces. When water flows over an object or surface, its kinetic energy allows it to pick up particles and contaminants, carrying them away. This process is enhanced by the use of detergents or soaps, which can break down oils and grease, making them easier to remove with water. Additionally, the friction created by the movement of water helps to loosen particles from surfaces, aiding in the cleaning process. Overall, the mechanical action of running water combined with detergents effectively removes dirt and contaminants, leaving surfaces clean.

Like running water cleaning us physically constant reading of the word of God cleans us spiritually. We get a constant flow of Jesus and Holy Spirit as we read the word. It washes and feeds us at the same time!

Blood (Jesus and Holy Spirit) flow serves a different purpose than running water when it comes to cleaning. While running water physically removes dirt and contaminants from surfaces, blood flow within the body plays a crucial role in cleansing tissues and maintaining overall health in several ways:

Oxygen and Nutrient Delivery: Blood carries oxygen and essential nutrients to cells throughout the body. These nutrients are necessary for cellular function and repair. Adequate blood (Jesus and Holy Spirit) flow ensures that tissues receive the oxygen and nutrients they need to stay healthy.

Waste Removal: Blood flow also facilitates the removal of metabolic waste products, such as carbon dioxide and urea, from tissues. These waste products are carried away by the bloodstream to organs like the lungs and kidneys, where they can be eliminated from the body.

Immune Response: Blood contains white blood cells, which are crucial components of the immune system. These cells help to identify and neutralize pathogens, such as bacteria and viruses, as well as remove dead or damaged cells from tissues.

Temperature Regulation: Blood flow helps regulate body temperature by distributing heat generated by metabolic processes throughout the body. When the body overheats, blood vessels dilate to increase blood flow to the skin, promoting heat loss through radiation and evaporation. Conversely, in cold conditions, blood vessels constrict to minimize heat loss and maintain core body temperature.

In summary, while running water physically cleans surfaces by removing dirt and contaminants, blood flow within the body plays a vital role in maintaining tissue health and overall bodily function by delivering oxygen and nutrients, removing waste products, supporting the immune system, and regulating temperature.
