• Isaiah 53:1-12

  1 Who hath believed our report?   and to whom is the arm of the Lord revealed?   

  2 For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.   

  3 He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.   

  4 Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.   

  5 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.   

  6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.   

  7 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.   

  8 He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation?   for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.   

  9 And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.   

  10 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.   

  11 He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.   

  12 Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.

However, darkness came into the church so that it stopped believing like the first century church did.   They pushed the Holy Spirit out and substituted ceremony for Miracle working Faith.   

Damnation is not necessary because of the blood of Christ.   But you must Believe in the efficacy of His blood to be Saved.   

Sickness and Disease need not be endured because of the stripes our Lord bore.   But we must Believe in the efficacy of His broken Body in order to be Healed.   

"My people are destroyed from a lack of Knowledge ."

Lack of Discernment of the efficacy of Christ`s broken Body is why we Suffer in the Flesh.   

"For this cause many are Weak and sickly among you, and many die."

Expect more from God.   He Loves you and has provided all things for Life and godliness.
