STRIPES OF LOVE

“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.”

Isaiah 53:5 KJV

Jesus had never done anything wrong yet He willingly allowed them to beat Him beyond recognition, spit on Him, curse Him, mock and reject Him for you and for me.  He died for us, for our sins.  Do you understand how much Jesus loves you?  What a precious Saviour we are privileged to know and have.

Jesus died for our sins on the cross.  It is His stripes of love that heals us.  “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” (Isaiah 53:5).  O how I love Jesus and one day I will see Him face to face.
