Revelation chapter 2 and 3 refer to the seven sprinklings of blood in front of the Ark of the Covenant. It is the flesh suffering together with Jesus that must be experienced by the church. It is the last purification for seven congregations of Gentiles that would be done by Jesus until the church becomes perfect and flawless as He is.
Leviticus 16:12-14
16:12 Then he shall take a censer full of burning coals of fire from the altar before the Lord, with his hands full of sweet incense beaten fine, and bring it inside the veil.
16:13 And he shall put the incense on the fire before the Lord, that the cloud of incense may cover the mercy seat that is on the Testimony, lest he die.
16:14 He shall take some of the blood of the bull and sprinkle it with his finger on the mercy seat on the east side; and before the mercy seat he shall sprinkle some of the blood with his finger seven times.
Once a year, Aaron as the high priest entered the Holy of Holiest of Tabernacle for reconciliation with blood and incense. The seven times sprinklings of blood (flesh suffering) must be accompanied by incense (prayer).
Facing the sprinkling of blood, we must pray and worship God a lot.Without worship prayer, we will not endure facing the sprinkling of blood. The example is Peter sleeping when Jesus asked him to pray, the result is Peter denied Him when he was facing the flesh suffering.
