The lydian flat 7 mode comes from the 4th note of the melodic minor scale and can be used for dominant chords and dominant chords with a ♭5 or ♯11th(same note)
The Melodic minor scale is the major scale with a lowered 3rd in it. I found this is the easiest way to remember these scales.

Melodic Minor Modes
This mode I’ll play against an F7 chord.
The F Lydian flat 7 played against an F7 chord
This mode is good because it contains a ♭5 a natural 5 and a ♭7. This mode is good for 9th, ♯11th and 13th chords too. Flatted 5th’s are ok but not ♯5’s
The flatted fifth is a “blue” note. One of the notes that give the blues scale its character
