Jesus Already Bore It!
He was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon him, and by his wounds we are healed. We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to his own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all.
Isaiah 53:5-6 New International Version
THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Jesus bore it ALL for you!
I don’t know how Jesus could stand up under the weight. He had my sin, your sin, the world’s sin for all of time, all placed upon Him so we would not have to bear the consequences of it. But in that sacrifice, as horrible as it was, we find ourselves healed, cured (past tense here folks!) of every sickness and disease known to mankind today and all those yet to be named. But most important of all we were cured (past tense) of the most awful disease known to mankind, a sin-sick soul. Can you imagine what it must have been like to have ALL the sin, sickness, disease, and iniquity of the world, past, present, and future, placed upon His body at one time. And this, so that we would not have to bear it ourselves. In its place, He has left us a transforming peace that passes all understanding. The ability to walk in divine health, to be prosperous in all we do, and most importantly to be the righteousness of God through Him. And ALL of this is already done, we don’t have to wait for Him to do it! It’s DONE! We just have to reach out and receive the Gift of God into our lives. Jesus bore ALL your sin, sickness. disease, and poverty!
MY PRAYER…
Father of all mercy and grace, fill my soul with the wonder of Your grace. Let me not forget the precious cost of Your love. Stir within me the constant and abiding memory of Your redemptive grace. Help me, Father, to be always conscious of the price paid for me at Calvary that day. Thank you Lord Jesus for all You have done for me.
In Jesus’ name I pray.
Amen
God does NOT forget nor does He change.
