HE WAS WOUNDED FOR OUR TRANSGRESSION.

But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his strips we are healed. Isaiah 53:5 Everything that Jesus Christ, the son of the living and true God suffered on the cross of Calvary was for you and all who will dare to believe. What was the purpose of his death? Actually, so many but this verse gives the summary as: 1. Sinners substitute. He was wounded for our transgressions; by the law of God, the soul that sinneth shall die. The doom of the sinner is obvious and fixed. Adam and Eve played with that law and they paid dearly for it. They died at degrees. Unfortunately, that decree continued and so all men became condemned prisoners waiting hopelessly for their execution. Then Jesus came. The Lamb of God that takes away the sins of the world. He died the death every man that ever will live on earth should have died. He became your substitute. John 3:16 says for God so loved the world (you) that he gave his only begotten son- Jesus, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life. You will not perish; all you need to do is believe on Jesus, repent of your sins and put your faith in his perfect sacrifice. 2. Healing and health. .....and with his strips we are healed. At Pilate's judgment hall, Jesus was tied to the pole and forty strokes of the Roman Soldiers whip were laid on. Medical Science reports that all the diseases that afflicts human race is categorized into forty. That's one strip of Jesus for a category. Glory be to God! That's why the Scripture said by his strips we are healed. Notice that the word heal is in the past tense. That means you carry a healed body, not a sick and sickly body. Believe this and you will be healthy. Also, Since by God's decree your body is a healed body, every sickness that comes in there is guilty and must receive divine instant judgment when you command and you or anyone you pray for will be healed. One of my one year old twin daughters was sick sometimes ago. Her body was very hot. Then I Carried her on my chest because I was lying down and told the sickness that it was contradicting God's law and the judgment is that I cast it into hell right now in the name of Jesus. I dropped my daughter and went into the bathroom to bath. Before I came out, the sickness vanished. Hallelujah, by his strips you are healed. He died for you to save, heal and bless your life. Believe it and you will experience it. Your life will never be the same again in Jesus name. Type a big Amen If you believe.
