When God is delivering the children of Israel out of Egypt, He commanded the sacrifice of a lamb for the Passover. The lamb was to be a male without spot, wrinkle, or blemish. The blood of the lamb was applied to the doorpost and lintel of the doorway to the house, and that blood provided protection from death. It was at that point that man began to understand that the blood of a sacrificial lamb had a personal benefit. As believers, WE APPLY THE BLOOD OF JESUS TO THE DOOR OF OUR HEARTS.
Then, through the prophet Isaiah, God revealed that the Lamb was a man. The ultimate blood sacrifice would be the SACRIFICIAL DEATH OF A SINGLE, SPOTLESS, INNOCENT, WITHOUT BLEMISH, MAN FOR THE SINS OF THE WORLD. “ 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. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
………..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. 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. 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 53:3-7).
It was centuries later before God revealed who this man was: THE MAN CHRIST JESUS: “ BEHOLD THE LAMB OF GOD, WHICH TAKETH AWAY THE SIN OF THE WORLD ( John 1:26).”
WOW: WHO CAN FATHOM THE MAGNITUDE OF GOD’S DOING!? GLORY, HONOR POWER BE UNTO THE LIVING GOD FOREVER AND EVER.
