The Blood of Christ Prayer Shawl
“But He was wounded for our transgressions,
He was crushed for our wickedness [our sin, our injustice, our wrongdoing]; The punishment [required] for our well-being fell on Him, And by His stripes (wounds) we are healed. All of us like sheep have gone astray, We have turned, each one, to his own way; But the Lord has caused the wickedness of us all [our sin, our injustice, our wrongdoing] To fall on Him [instead of us].” Isaiah 53:5-6
Prayer Shawls which are also known as a Tallit, are a scared garment that is steeped in Jewish tradition. These sacred garments signifies the nobility that comes from being God’s chosen people. It is a sign of obedience to God’s law. Prayer shawls are use during prayer times to connect to God more intimately. Wearing a prayer shawl during times of prayer is like having a tent meeting with The Lord. Wearing a prayer shawl is a sign of obedience to God’s commands. The shawl represents a sense of personal space. It can feel like you are wrapped in the arms of God. It can be comforting. It can help us feel closer to God. Our time spent with The Father can feel more personal. Prayer Shawls serve as a reminder, that we are carried through this life wrapped in the arms of our Father.
