DIVINE EXCHANGE

DAILY GRACE
SAT. 26TH MARCH, 2016
TOPIC: DIVINE EXCHANGE
TEXT: Luke 23:15-25

Today by His grace, we will look at the above text for our edification. I believe God with you that the impact of  His death and resurrection of Christ Jesus, on the cross will not be missing upon your life in Jesus name.
Quickly, let me open your eyes to the the mystery of this divine exchange that took place years ago on your behalf. It happened so that we Can be justified and totally free from the dominion of sins (Rom. 6:14, Rom. 8:1).
Christ Jesus stepped into our place and took our blame. We were to be beaten, put to shame, molested, condemned, judged, afflicted, chastised and crucifiéd but Christ Jesus stepped into our place to bear all the shame, agony, condemnation and death on the cross.  The Bible says that Barabbas was a criminal (as many of us are today). A man who for certain sedition (discontention against constituted  authority and especially the government) and murder was put into prison (Luke 23:19). In order words, this man was a full time rebellion and the Bible says that rebellion is like a sin of Witchcraft (2 Sam. 15:23). So, if you call this man a witch/ wizard you are not mistaken. But, the good news is that Jesus stepped into his case, to serve all the punishment due him (Barabbas).
Friends, it will baffle you to know that we are like the the Barabbas described in today's text.  A lot of us have been condemned and doomed to die because we were conceived in sin while in our mother's womb and in sin we were given birth to (Rom. 6:23; 3:23).
The good news to you is that no matter how a hardened criminal or a sinner you are. No matter the sentence of death that the enemy (devil) might have placed on you, you are free today. This is because, Christ Jesus has come once and for all to be condemned, die and also resurrected for your saké so that you be made free and free to commune with God your Creator (2 Cor. 5:17, Rom. 8:1, Heb. 4:16, Luke 23:15). Also, in Isaiah 53:8 -10 "He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken. And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth. Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand".

Beloved, it is quite clear that Jesus had no sins but He bore the sin of the Whole world to Himself and faces the judgment that a sinner would face, just for you and l . It pleased God to make Him bear all our sins so as to buy the whole world back to Himself through the blood of His Son, Jesus Christ.
It Is left for you to surrender your life to Jesus, the One who paid the debt of your sins; so that you can be justified by your faith and have peace with God. It is well with you.

Personal Confession: Lord Jesus, your death on the cross will not be in vain upon my life in Jesus name.
