In the Old Testament, it was prophesied “But He was wounded
for our transgressions, He was bruised for our guilt and iniquities;
the chastisement [needful to obtain] peace and well-being
for us was upon Him, and with the stripes [that wounded] Him we are healed and made whole”. Isaiah 53:5 AMP
No one has greater love [no one has shown stronger affection]
than to lay down (give up) his own life for his friends. John 13:15 AMP
Today is a day to reflect and fully understand why Jesus died
on the cross for all of us. However, within those three days, things were going
on in the spiritual world that we read about in the word, but have no knowledge
of how powerful His love was and still is for us (who believe) to conquer
Heaven and Hell so you have protection from Satan to live a life filled with
good health, a loving family, a home that is protected from the storms nature
brings, and favor and blessings everywhere you go!
Pastor Creflo Dollar was speaking on how we are saved by Grace and
there is nothing we can do to earn it or give it back ~ it’s free. He gave a
member of his congregation a gift she was not expecting. She looked at him in
surprise and he walked away. She sat there in amazement and Pastor Dollar asked
her to open it up. She did and still had a puzzled look on her face! He said,”I
know you are wondering why I gave you that gift and I also know you don’t have
anything to give back to me”. She shook her head no and Pastor Dollar went on
to the podium and said, “I just demonstrated “Grace”. It’s a free gift that you
are not able to repay!
On Easter Sunday I pray many of you are filled with
Thanksgiving and Love for our Savior! Why? Because He loved you first!
