Words of Encouragement for Every New Day ~ 28 May 2010

No other like our God-receive the healing from our Lord We live in an unfair world. A world where persecution and torture continue to occur on a daily basis. A world where sometimes it is easy to doubt the existence and power of our Lord when we are the victims. However, I pray we would realise there is no other God like our Lord Jesus Christ. He bore our sins and transgressions. He was tortured for our iniquities. It is because of His wounds we are healed. If not for His blood and wounds we would be lifeless beings without meaning. Isaiah 53:5 But He was pierced for our transgressions, He was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was upon Him, and by His wounds we are healed. I believe the Lord our God wants to pour His healing hands upon us today. Some of us have such a stubborn spirit, it is virtually impossible for us to receive. Why is it so hard to receive? If we cannot eat the body and drink the blood of our Lord-we have not been healed. It is by the wounds of our Lord Jesus Christ that we have been healed. Healed from our sins and transgressions. We must look inside our hearts. If we cannot receive the blessings, the rebukes, the discipline, the affection and love from our Lord it means we do not know our Lord. It is time we thank the Lord our God. � 2010 Lee Shaun Tzen. www.everynation.org.sg
