As we celebrate this Easter season, I have been looking at Isaiah 53. It is a stark reminder that as our substitute, Jesus, took the full force of the Father’s wrath. The trek up Calvary’s Mountain culminated with the fires of God’s wrath burning themselves out on the Lord Jesus Christ. Think about it… He, being infinite, suffered in a finite period what we, being finite, would suffer in an infinite period. The sins of the world were distilled upon Jesus when He said, “Then not my will, but Thine be done.”
He was oppressed and He was afflicted, yet He opened not His mouth; He was led as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before his shearers is silent, so He opened not His mouth. (Isaiah 53:7)
Knee Mail:
The cry of our hearts is to be a praying church. We long to be in His presence. There is something about our hearts knit together in prayer that not only makes us one, but it is His perfect will for His bride. How can we pray for you and those you love???
