Bless the Lord, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless His holy name! Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: Who heals all your diseases. Psalm 103:1-3
Bless the Lord, O my soul; and all that is within me, bless His holy name! Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all His benefits: Who heals all your diseases. Psalm 103:1-3
Many think that Jesus only bled once on the cross for our sins, but from the Garden of Gethsemane to Golgotha, He bled in seven specific places. In the garden, He sweat blood under great distress until His blood vessels broke and His sweat turned to blood. From there, He proceeded to bleed in six more places on His way to His final destination on the cross.
When Jesus was beaten by the Romans, He was bruised and bled inside His body, which broke the generational curse. Next, they whipped Him with a whip called a cat of nine tails, tipped with metal and pieces of bone that tore the flesh and healed all of our diseases. Beaten, whipped, and bloody, they put a crown of thorns on His head, redeeming our livelihood and broke the curse of poverty that we would yield thorns from our labor.
Finally, at the cross, they nailed his hands, restoring our dominion to the work of our hands. His feet were nailed to restore dominion over our walk and the powers of darkness. To prove His death, they drove a spear into His heart, showing that He died from a broken heart!
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. I Peter 2:24
