4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. 5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
Dear Ones: With His stripes we are healed. This is good news. As the suffering Servant, our LORD carried it all for us. HE drank the cup in the garden that contained our griefs, sorrows, sicknesses, diseases, transgressions (sins), iniquities, anxiety, and distresses. When HIS body was nailed to the Cross, all of what HE took in that was in that cup was also crucified. The wages of sin, death, was paid in full. For now, no weapon formed against those who are in HIM shall prosper. Because we are delivered from the rule of darkness and walk as children of Light…in HIM.
May the power of the work of the Cross explode in you: body, soul, and spirit. Let this power wash through you driving out all darkness. You are an overcomer in HIM. Have an overcoming day. I bless you in Jesus’ name.
