God speaks today Monday | April 15, 2024

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. (Isaiah 53:10)
The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world. (John 1:29)
Charles Spurgeon

Our Lord Jesus looks at those who look at Him

Jesus' death was not in vain, as it was a substitutionary sacrifice for our sins. He has saved those for whom He put His life as a sacrifice. He is represented in Christians, and His life is continued through believers. He delights in us and recognizes us as the fruit of His soul's work. We should rejoice in this and the fact that He will never cease to enjoy the result of His atonement. Read more...

The place of the scripture which he read was this, He was led as a sheep to the slaughter; and like a lamb dumb before his shearer, so opened he not his mouth: (Acts 8:32)
And ye know that he was manifested to take away our sins; and in him is no sin. (1 John 3:5)
He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth. (Isaiah 53:7)

Brother Samuel, thank you for sharing with us the wonderful work that God has done in the life of your daughter Siloè.

Dear Ruth, thank you for reminding us of the immense love of God in giving His Son Jesus Christ as proof of that love for humanity. As mentioned in the biblical quote from Isaiah 53:10, the Lord wanted to break him and subject him to suffering, so that through His atonement offering he could see His descendants and prolong His days. Through Jesus Christ, God shows us His unconditional and sacrificial love. May that truth full of love and grace continue to bless your life and the lives of those around you. May the peace and grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you always! Amen!
