God's Love Post

“Surely He has borne our griefs (sicknesses, weaknesses

and distresses) and carried our sorrows and pains, yet we

considered Him stricken, smitten and afflicted by God.

But He was wounded for our transgressions.

He was bruised for our guilt and iniquities.

The chastisement needed to obtain peace and

well-being for us was upon Him and with the stripes that

wounded Him we are healed and made whole.

All we like sheep have gone astray, we have turned

every one to his own way; and the Lord has caused

the iniquity of us all to fall on Him.

He was oppressed and He was afflicted.

Yet He did not open His mouth

Like a lamb that is led to slaughter,

And like a sheep that is silent before its shearers,

So He did not open His mouth.

By oppression and judgment He was taken away;

And as for His generation, who considered

That He was cut off out of the land of the living

For the transgression of my people,

to whom the stroke was due?

His grave was assigned with wicked men,

Yet He was with a rich man in His death,

Because He had done no violence,

Nor was there any deceit in His mouth.

But the Lord was pleased

To crush Him, putting Him to grief;

If He would render Himself as a guilt offering,

He will see His offspring,

He will prolong His days,

And the good pleasure of the Lord

will prosper in His hand.

As a result of the anguish of His soul,

He will see it and be satisfied;

By His knowledge the Righteous One,

My Servant, will justify the many,

As He will bear their iniquities.

Therefore, I will allot Him a portion

with the great,

And He will divide the booty with the strong;

Because He poured out Himself to death,

And was numbered with the transgressors;

Yet He Himself bore the sin of many,

And interceded for the transgressors.”

(Isaiah 53.4-12).

HALLELUJAH! WE PRAISE YOU LORD JESUS
