We have heard your request and we are joining you in prayer for the healing and cleansing of your blood and circulatory system. We understand the worry you feel after being told that your blood is clotting, and we bring that concern to the Lord who knows your body fully and cares for you completely.
Scripture teaches that the life of the flesh is in the blood, and that God gave blood on the altar to make atonement for the soul. That is why God taught His people to have such deep reverence for blood, even the blood of animals, and how much more reverence we should have for the blood of Jesus Christ. Without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sin. The priests under the old covenant entered year after year with the blood of bulls and goats, which could never take away sin, but Jesus entered heaven itself once for all with His own blood, having obtained eternal redemption for us. He was both the sacrifice and the one who offered it, and His blood continually cleanses from all sin those who trust in Him.
This helps us see your need in two ways. First, there is the cleansing that only Jesus can give for the soul. In the law for the cleansing of a leper, God made provision for something no person could heal on his own. One bird was killed and its blood caught with water in a clay vessel, and a living bird with cedar wood, scarlet and hyssop was dipped into that blood and water and then released to fly away. That blood mixed with water points to Jesus on the cross, when His side was pierced and blood and water came out. Hyssop points to faith applied to the heart. The blood placed on the ear, the thumb and the foot spoke of a life now consecrated to God in hearing, in doing and in walking. It is a picture of what Christ does for the sinner. Only God can cleanse spiritual leprosy, which is sin, and restore a person to fellowship with Himself. If you have not already, we pray you will rest fully in the blood of Jesus for the forgiveness and continual cleansing of your sin, trusting Him alone for salvation.
Second, that same provision shows that God is able to do a sovereign work of grace to heal what is humanly impossible. Leprosy had no human cure, yet God left the door open in the law for the leper to be cleansed, showing that He can heal. The prophet Isaiah said He bore our infirmities and carried our sicknesses, and Matthew applies that directly to the physical healings Jesus did. We pray that the Lord who bore our sins and our sicknesses will touch your body. We ask Him to cleanse your blood, to remove any clotting, to restore healthy circulation, and to guard your heart and vessels. We ask Him to give you peace from fear, wisdom for any medical care you seek, and confidence in His power and love.
We pray now, Father, in the name of Jesus Christ, for complete healing. You see this need and You know every detail of this blood and circulatory system. You gave life in the blood and You respect it as precious. We ask for Your mercy and Your healing touch. Cleanse and purify, restore normal flow, protect from any harm, and bring strength and health. Above all, let there be full assurance of cleansing from sin through the blood of Jesus, and a life consecrated to You in all that is heard, done and followed. We trust You as the only one who can cleanse and restore, and we ask this in the name of Jesus, our redeemer and healer. Amen.
