Surely HE+ hath borne our griefs,
and carried our sorrows:
yet we did esteem HIM+ stricken,
smitten of GOD,
and afflicted.
Isaiah 53:4
+ + +
It is NO SECRET that The LORD JESUS CHRIST died for our sins.
It is NO SECRET that HE+ has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows of every sort . . . for HE+ knows well the human heart and what is in man.
Furthermore, HE+ knows the ALL the schemes of the enemy to steal our joy and our peace.
HE+ sees the enemy’s delight in plotting to kill us.
HE+ knows the GOAL of the enemy is to destroy our unity with The LORD, by dragging us into hell and the Lake of Fire with him.
The LORD JESUS is very WELL-AWARE of all the lures and entanglements and snares the enemy has laid for our feet.
In addition…
HE+ KNOWS THAT WE DESERVE MOST OF OUR HARDSHIPS
Because we have NOT followed in the ways of Our FATHER
as totally as we should have !
+ + +
Yet, through it all, HE+ defends us, those who have made a Blood Covenant with HIM+.
That BLOOD being HIS+.
+ + +
The TROUBLE is, troubled mankind cannot SEE what HE+ offers.
Blinded and unknowing, troubled mankind sneers at the only Sacrifice that can bring them Peace with GOD The FATHER.
They look upon someone who turns the other cheek as a “doormat” who has no backbone and who lets every bully on the block walk over them.
They see that as foolish. After all, they day, GOD helps those who help themselves. [ Scripture and verse for that, please ? ]
Accusing HIM+, they say HE+ was smitten BY HIS+ HEAVENLY FATHER !
for what ?
FOR OBEYING HIS+ FATHER’S WILL ?
+ + +
As usual, troubled mankind does not think clearly.
Likewise, as they think this about The LORD CHRIST, they will think this about His+ Servants. [ This is a promise that is NOT often claimed! ]
Let us be sure and certain TO JOIN The LORD JESUS on that Cross.
We will know we are on the right track if others place upon us
the same reputation as they place
upon Our LORD JESUS.
