We will be sharing about the importance of the blood in our body. Also, we will do some prophetic prayers to keep our circulatory system healthy and get rid of some conditions that could be affecting us at the present.
2. WELCOME TO
OUR NEW SEMINAR
“THEPOWEROF THEBLOOD”
LEARNING TO PROPHESY
MARCO LAFEBRE
3. Tonight we will focus on the
following topics
• BLOOD AND THE CIRCULATORY SYSTEM.
• BLOOD CONDITIONS.
• BLOOD TESTS
• BLOOD TREATMENTS
• PROPHETIC PRAYER FOR A HEALTHY
CIRCULATORY SYSTEM.
4.
5. SUMMARY1. Deoxygenated blood
enters right atrium
through superior and
inferior vena cava.
2. Blood enters right
ventricle through tricuspid
valve.
3. Blood exits right ventricle
through pulmonary valve
and enters pulmonary
artery.
4. Left and right pulmonary
arteries send blood to
lungs, where gas
exchange occurs,
6. SUMMARY1. Oxygenated blood
returns to the heart via
the pulmonary veins and
enters left atrium.
2. Blood enters left
ventricle through mitral
valve.
3. Blood exits left ventricle
through aortic semilunar
valve to enter aorta.
4. Aorta distributes blood
to body.
8. • BLOOD REVEALS MUCH ABOUT THE
MAJESTY OF OUR CREATOR AND MASTER
CRAFTSMAN, IRREDUCIBLE COMPLEXITY,
AND THE HEALTH OR DISEASE STATE OF
THE HUMAN BODY.
9. • Capillaries are the smallest blood vessels
through which blood cells can move through
in single file. This blood vessel network
knitted with lymphatic capillaries shows an
interwoven complexity, thus revealing the
fearfully and wonderfully made design of our
body (Gillen, 2009). In this article, we also
show a biblical worldview and notable
Christians who expounded the biblical
concept that “Life is in the Blood.”
10. Blood, fluid that
transports oxygen and
nutrients to the cells
and carries away carbon
dioxide and other waste
products.
Technically, blood is a transport
liquid pumped by the heart (or an
equivalent structure) to all parts of
the body, after which it is returned
to the heart to repeat the process.
Blood is both a tissue and a fluid. It
is a tissue because it is a collection
of similar specialized cells that
serve particular functions. These
cells are suspended in a liquid
matrix (plasma), which makes the
blood a fluid. If blood flow ceases,
death will occur within minutes
because of the effects of an
unfavourable environment on
highly susceptible cells.
11. WHAT IS THE
BLOOD
• Blood is a body fluid in
humans and other animals
that delivers necessary
substances such as
nutrients and oxygen to the
cells and transports
metabolic waste products
away from those same cells.
In vertebrates, it is
composed of blood cells
suspended in blood
plasma. Wikipedia
12. What is the
importance of blood?
• Blood plays an important
role in regulating the body's
systems and maintaining
homeostasis. Other
functions include
supplying oxygen and nutrie
nts to tissues, removing
waste, transporting
hormones and other signals
throughout the body, and
regulating body pH and core
body temperature
13. • Blood is a constantly circulating fluid
providing the body with nutrition, oxygen, and
waste removal. Blood is mostly liquid, with
numerous cells and proteins suspended in it,
making blood "thicker" than pure water. The
average person has about 5 liters (more than
a gallon) of blood.
14. • A liquid called plasma makes up about half of
the content of blood. Plasma contains
proteins that help blood to clot, transport
substances through the blood, and perform
other functions. Blood plasma also contains
glucose and other dissolved nutrients.
15. About half of blood volume is composed of
blood cells:
• Red blood cells, which carry oxygen to the tissues
• White blood cells, which fight infections
• Platelets, smaller cells that help blood to clot
• Blood is conducted through blood vessels (arteries and
veins). Blood is prevented from clotting in the blood
vessels by their smoothness, and the finely tuned
balance of clotting factors.
18. • Hemorrhage (bleeding): Blood leaking out of blood vessels may
be obvious, as from a wound penetrating the skin. Internal
bleeding (such as into the intestines, or after a car accident)
may not be immediately apparent.
• Hematoma: A collection of blood inside the body tissues.
Internal bleeding often causes a hematoma.
• Leukemia: A form of blood cancer, in which white blood cells
multiply abnormally and circulate through the blood. The
abnormal white blood cells make getting sick from infections
easier than normal.
19. • Multiple myeloma: A form of blood cancer of plasma cells
similar to leukemia. Anemia, kidney failure and high blood
calcium levels are common in multiple myeloma.
• Lymphoma: A form of blood cancer, in which white blood cells
multiply abnormally inside lymph nodes and other tissues. The
enlarging tissues, and disruption of blood's functions, can
eventually cause organ failure.
• Anemia: An abnormally low number of red blood cells in the
blood. Fatigue and breathlessness can result, although anemia
often causes no noticeable symptoms.
20. • Hemolytic anemia: Anemia caused by rapid bursting of large
numbers of red blood cells (hemolysis). An immune system
malfunction is one cause.
• Hemochromatosis: A disorder causing excessive levels of iron
in the blood. The iron deposits in the liver, pancreas and other
organs, causing liver problems and diabetes.
• Sickle cell disease: A genetic condition in which red blood cells
periodically lose their proper shape (appearing like sickles,
rather than discs). The deformed blood cells deposit in tissues,
causing pain and organ damage.
21. • Bacteremia: Bacterial infection of the blood. Blood infections
are serious, and often require hospitalization and continuous
antibiotic infusion into the veins.
• Malaria: Infection of red blood cells by Plasmodium, a parasite
transmitted by mosquitos. Malaria causes episodic fevers,
chills, and potentially organ damage.
• Thrombocytopenia: Abnormally low numbers of platelets in the
blood. Severe thrombocytopenia may lead to bleeding.
22. • Leukopenia: Abnormally low numbers of white blood cells in
the blood. Leukopenia can result in difficulty fighting infections.
• Disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC): An uncontrolled
process of simultaneous bleeding and clotting in very small
blood vessels. DIC usually results from severe infections or
cancer.
• Hemophilia: An inherited (genetic) deficiency of certain blood
clotting proteins. Frequent or uncontrolled bleeding can result
from hemophilia.
23. • Hypercoaguable state: Numerous conditions can result in the blood
being prone to clotting. A heart attack, stroke, or blood clots in the
legs or lungs can result.
• Polycythemia: Abnormally high numbers of red blood cells in the
blood. Polycythemia can result from low blood oxygen levels, or may
occur as a cancer-like condition.
• Deep venous thrombosis (DVT): A blood clot in a deep vein, usually
in the leg. DVTs are dangerous because they may become dislodged
and travel to the lungs, causing a pulmonary embolism (PE).
24. • Myocardial infarction (MI): Commonly called a heart attack,
a myocardial infarction occurs when a sudden blood clot
develops in one of the coronary arteries, which supply
blood to the heart.
26. Complete blood count: An analysis of the concentration
of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets in the
blood. Automated cell counters perform this test.

Blood smear: Drops of blood are smeared across a
microscope slide, to be examined by an expert in a lab.
Leukemia, anemia, malaria, and numerous other blood
conditions can be identified with a blood smear.
27. • Blood type: A test for compatibility before receiving a blood
transfusion. The major blood types (A, B, AB, and O) are
determined by the protein markers (antigens) present on
the surface of red blood cells.
• Coombs test: A blood test looking for antibodies that
could bind to and destroy red blood cells. Pregnant
women and people with anemia may undergo
Coombs testing.
28. • Blood culture: A blood test looking for infection present in
the bloodstream. If bacteria or other organisms are
present, they may multiply in the tested blood, allowing
their identification.
Mixing study: A blood test to identify the reason for blood
being "too thin" (abnormally resistant to clotting). The
patient's blood is mixed in a tube with normal blood, and
the mixed blood's properties may provide a diagnosis.
29. • Bone marrow biopsy: A thick needle is inserted into a large
bone (usually in the hip), and bone marrow is drawn out for
tests. Bone marrow biopsy can identify blood conditions
that simple blood tests cannot.

• If you would like to have the two minutes video about the
pumping of the heart, the above is the link video.
• Please as a courtesy for the person that made the video I would
encourage you to “like” the video. That is the “etiquette”
procedure when watching or downloading something from the
internet, as most of them are free, the “likes” help the person
uploading their stuff to reach more persons watching their
presentations.
34. • There is great power in the
spoken word of God.
• Words have power when
they are God's words spoken
in faith through our lips.
• Jesus in his ministry quoted
the Scriptures, we should do
the same.
• Remember the bible is
the word of God.
35. Tonight we will focus on the
following topics
