    The prayer for stopping the blood.
    Jesus was born in Bethlehem, baptized at the river Jordan, the up water was clear and the water was good and as Jesus commanded the water stood and by his word and in his name I command this blood to do the same.
    The cure of the sprain
    As Jesus was crossing the mountain, His ass met with a sprain, He got down and said; blood to blood; and bone to bone and every sinew in its own place.
