Beloved friends,

Our God is giver and He always gives us the best (John 3:14) He is always looking out for ways to bless us. Nobody at this time must be thinking about or remembering us, but God does, we are always on His mind (Jer 29:11). Such great is his love for us.

Today I want to share with you about a Divine Exchange that took place on the cross. The cross is a sign of victory for us. where every thing which was ous Jesus took upon Himself and everything that was His He gave it to us.

THE DIVINE EXCHANGE
  1. Jesus endured in our place all the evil concequences that we were due to by divine justice to our inequity. Now in exchange God offers us all the good that was due to the sinless obedience to Jesus.(Isa 53:6)
  2. Jesus was wounded for our transgression. jesus was punished that we might be forgiven. Jesus was wounded that i might be healed. (Isa53:4-5 )
  3. Jesus was made sin with our sinfulness, that we might become the rigteeousness of God (2 Cor 5:21)
  4. Jesus was made a curse that we might enter into His blessings. (Gal 3:13-14)
  5. Jesus endured our poverty that we might share His abundance. (2 Cor 8:9) (2 Cor 9:8)
  6. Jesus bore our shame that we might share His Glory. (Heb 2:9)
  7. Jesus endured our rejection that we might have His acceptance with the Father. (Eph 1:5-6) (Heb 2:9)
