Isaiah 53:10 (NLT), “But it was the Lord’s good plan to crush him and cause him grief.
Yet when his life is made an offering for sin, he will have many descendants. He will enjoy a long life, and the Lord’s good plan will prosper in his hands.”LIFEPOINT: From the beginning, God has had a plan for our redemption. The plan begins and ends with Jesus and what He has done, what He currently does, and what He will do for us in the future!Matthew 1:18-23 (NLT), “This is how Jesus the Messiah was born. His mother, Mary, was engaged to be married to Joseph. But before the marriage took place, while she was still a virgin, she became pregnant through the power of the Holy Spirit. Joseph, her fiance, was a good man and did not want to disgrace her publicly, so he decided to break the engagement quietly. As he considered this, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream. ‘Joseph, son of David,’ the angel said, ‘do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife. For the child within her was conceived by the Holy Spirit. And she will have a son, and you are to name him Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.’ All of this occurred to fulfill the Lord’s message through his prophet: ‘Look! The virgin will conceive a child! She will give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel, which means, ‘God is with us.’”Isaiah 7:14 (NLT), “the Lord himself will give you a sign. Look! The virgin will conceive a child! She will give birth to a son and will call him Immanuel (which means ‘God with us’).” Isaiah 9:6 (NLT), “For a child is born to us, a son is given to us. The government will rest on his shoulders. And he will be called: Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”Names of Jesus:
- Wonderful Counselor
- Mighty God
- Everlasting Father
- Prince of Peace
Philippians 4:7 (NIV), “And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and minds in Christ Jesus.”Psalm 23:4 (NKJV),
“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; For you are with me;Your rod and your staff, they comfort me.”
1 Peter 2:24 (NLT), “He personally carried our sins in his body on the cross so that we can be dead to sin and live for what is right. By his wounds we are healed.”He took on our sins - he didn’t have to
He took on our wounds - he didn’t have to
1 Corinthians 15:55-57 (NLT), “O death, where is your victory? O death, where is your sting? For sin is the sting that results in death, and the law gives sin its power. But thank God! He gives us victory over sin and death through our Lord Jesus Christ.”Romans 4:25 (NLT), “He was handed over to die because of our sins, and he was raised to life to make us right with God.”John 1:12 (NIV), “Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.”
