Jesus Christ prayed for you, me and for all those who believe on Him.
8 For I have given unto them the words which thou gavest me; and they have received them,
and have known surely that I came out from thee, and they have believed that thou didst send me.
9 I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.
10 And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.
John 17
Luke 22 :44 And being in an agony he prayed more earnestly: and his sweat
was as it were great drops of blood falling down to the ground.

This shedding of His blood was first shed through prayer and all on his own
in the garden with the witness of angels and not by the hands of any other man --- yet.
His precious tears of blood would reach all true believers and enter our souls that we would learn the pure truth of Him ...
His humbleness,
His Word,
His strength,
faith,
and His perfect love and obedience
to our Heavenly Father's will.

Glimpse of Gethsemane
Garden of suffering, where angels witnessed
The great sorrow in our Lamb of God.
His tears were planted in the garden sod.
Droplets of blood from Him were shed
Remaining here as holy treasure
Beyond all measure
In the Garden of Gethsemane.
Truly, the Son of God prayed for us.
The ground readily accepted our Savior's sweat and tears.
His tears would wash away all our fears.
Although not all have readily
Accepted our Saviour.
Truly, the Son of Man wept for us.
He would be led as a lamb to a slaughter-
Silent and willing from His heart...
Knowing that what He'd do
Was fulfilling the Scriptures
Completing His part.
Truly, the Lamb of God loved us.
I am led by The Lamb this day
Worshiping Him, knowing the truth
He is The Gospel; He is The Way.
My growing faith is my proof.
Truly, Our Saviour is risen.

Luke 22:43 And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven,
strengthening him. 44 And being in an agony he prayed
more earnestly: and his sweat was as it were great drops
of blood falling down to the ground.

Jesus Christ is forever in my heart
and the life given unto me
is from the unfailing eternal blood of Jesus.
John 3:15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish,
but have eternal life.
I believe.
His blood is the blood of mercy ,cleansing, righteousness ,sacred love ,
eternal life,salvation and forgiveness.
This is the precious blood of the cup of Christ we are to drink from continually...
and this is the cup we are called to share with others.
To partake of His flesh and blood ,
is to be nourished and fed only from Jesus...
to believe from the heart and to walk humbly with God in loving obedience according to the will of our Heavenly Father.
And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead,
and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us,
and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
Revelation 1:5

Isaiah 1: 15 And when ye spread forth your hands, I will hide mine eyes from you: yea,
when ye make many prayers, I will not hear: your hands are full of blood.
But God said unto me, Thou shalt not build an house for my name,
because thou hast been a man of war, and hast shed blood. 1 Chronicles 28:3
Proverbs 1:16 For their feet run to evil, and make haste to shed blood.
14 But ye denied the Holy One and the Just, and desired a murderer to be granted unto you;
15 And killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses.
16 And his name through faith in his name hath made this man strong, whom ye see and know:
yea, the faith which is by him hath given him this perfect soundness in the presence of you all.
17 And now, brethren, I wot that through ignorance ye did it, as did also your rulers.
18 But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets,
that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.

This is the blood and bread of violence,evil, murder, and wickedness.

This is my testimony of what the precious blood of Jesus Christ means to me.
To God be all the glory.
And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying,
This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.
Likewise also the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.
