This Blood Is For You
Posted By Miss Jocelyn Tzahala on April 12, 2009 | Category: God's Listening Ear, I Follow Yeshua HaMashyiach, The Scriptures
Violently they grabbed his arms,
As they tightly strapped each wrist,
With a hellish look stood a strong armed soldier,
Whip clenched in his fist,
Laced with chips of bone they beat him hard,
From his shoulders to his feet,
And it sliced right through his olive skin,
Just like razors through a sheet,
Countless times the blood splattered,
As each in-human lash was given,
Several times his knees gave way,
As his flesh just hung like rivets
And surprisingly he turned his head,
Though the words he used were few,
The soldiers face turned pale,
When he said “This blood is for you”,
Uncaringly they tossed a garment,
Across his weakened form,
And his blood pressure fell deathly low,
As the crowds began to swarm,
They forced him to carry his cross up-hill,
As his face they punched and smacked
All the splinters from the criss crossed beam dug deep into his back
Through lack of sleep and dehydration,
His tongue began to swell,
And weakened by his loss of blood,
This prophet-teacher fell,
When he did some blood splattered
On a man named Simons shoe,
As he bent to wipe it off,
The prophet looked and said
“Simon this blood is for you”,
This blood can save the soul,
Heal the sick, mend the heart,
This blood can give you access,
To the very throne of God,
And it still can go the distance,
From the pain to where you are,
This blood is for you,
The blood of the lamb,
Then they pounded a spike,
Through the bones in his wrists,
Bursting arteries, and veins
And as they dropped the cross in the hole they dug
His body convulsed with pain
Through the agony and torment
That never a soul shall find
He tilts his face towards heaven
With full control of his mind
With more love then any human heard
Before that time or since
He made a statement that to this day
Makes the strongest skeptic wince,
He cried “Father, God forgive them for they not what they do.”
And as he gave his life for those lost in sin
He was saying
“This blood is for you!”
This blood can save the soul,
Heal the sick, mend the heart,
This blood can give you access,
To the very throne of God,
And it still can go the distance,
From the pain to where you are,
This blood is for you,
(If you’re lost and alone, and your mind is confused)
This blood is for you,
(If you feel like you have been hurt and abused)
This blood is for you,
The Atoning cleansing blood of the Lamb
This blood can save the soul,
Heal the sick, mend the heart,
This blood can give you access,
To the very throne of God,
And it still can go the distance,
From the pain to where you are,
This blood is for you,
The blood of the lamb,
This Blood is for you,
The Blood of the Lamb.
Are you covered with this blood? CRY TO JESUS

Shalom, welcome to A Pondering Heart. I hope you will be challenged by what you read here and it will cause you to search deeper and deeper into the Word of YAH. My name is Jocelyn Tzahala. I'm 19, Woman, Believer. I'm passionate and straight forward... take that into consideration. I am a young woman, living in Latin America, seeking to be 'set apart as YHVH is set-apart". I want my faith to resemble that Avraham because in him YHVH found a man who would trust in him with everything and act upon his Word. My hope is that my life may be a sweet fragrance unto YHVH the MOST HIGH! HalleluYAH! Read more
Thanks for the email update!
Happy Easter to you and yours!

Love the song. Love the movie.
Our Saviour did an unbelievable thing for us.
We must live so. We must.
The Passion is so overwhelming to me. I am glad they made it so real though so we have a better understanding, even though the scourging scene was unbearable. I think it is important for us to see, understand and ponder.
Thank you LORD Jesus.
Thanks Jocelyn~

I have never seen the movie, and never heard the song, but I love the lyrics! Praise Jesus for all He went through. It is so hard to fathom the depth of His love for us… Praise the Lord.

Hi Jocelyn,
I recently saw on your sister’s twitter page a link to a blog that was critizing your concern for modesty in today’s world. I didn’t like seeing that at all and I bet you didn’t even more so. I posted a comment in response to her post, I am comment #16.
I don’t know you personally but enjoy your blog!
Blessings,
Priscilla

I appreciate your and your sister’s stand for modesty. I recently wrote on it, too, at my blog (3-4-09, “A Modesty Meddler” – http://heartchoicestoday.blogspot.com/ ) and I got comments — some written, more in person — that it’s time for women of God who embrace biblical womanhood to take a stronger stand on this issue. I am so thankful that there are still clear voices in the younger generation that are holding the line for solid biblical truth. Stay strong, young sisters! Blessings from the older generation – Dawn

Hmmm… It strikes me that very few people have left comments on this post. It’s the most important event in all of history and it is the only reason that we (Christians) can get up every day with a smile on our face. It’s amazing what Christ went through…. I cannot even imagine the pain and the rejection that He suffered.
This past week I had the priviledge of being able to participate in a drama on the beach (I will post about it soon). The drama depicted the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. It was such a powerful message and compelling skit that even the people involved began crying more than once. How could a man go through so much? The answer is that no man could, only God’s Son!!
Thank you for posting about this. It’s so important that we remember what our Saviour had to suffer to set us free.
Blessings, Jocelyn! I love you my dear sister!

BTW, I love that picture that you posted of you and your sister. Very sweet!

What impacted me most this year is that Resurrection Day is more than a day … we should be living in light of the resurrection EVERY day. Can you imagine the power in our lives — His power working through us — if we would just keep that in mind and depend on the Holy Spirit and our freedom in new life? So many distractions … “Lord, help us remember.”
