Isaiah 53:12 (NIV)
Therefore I will give him a portion among the great, and he will divide the spoils with the strong, because he poured out his life unto death, and was numbered with the transgressors. For he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
WORD:
The death of Christ brought life and reward not just for Christ but for us who were transgressors of God’s law. Jesus was rewarded for His sacrifice with authority and the ability to affect the affairs of men. Our hearts were found to be faulty and were always going to lead us away from the will of God, which also meant that we would bear the full extent of God’s wrath of which death was the ultimate reward. The venom of death was toxic but the antidote was life and Christ poured out His unto death so we can live and escape the punishment. He is still making intercession on your behalf and you can trust Him. Sometimes, the key to our success is just to trust the process and go with it. I implore you to just trust that you have an abundant life, brimming with hope, love and grace.
PRAYER:
Spirit of God, please lead me to accept the gift of deliverance and peace as the father has given through the sacrifice of love. In Jesus’ name I pray.
