Topic: Divine Restoration 22 - Shalom 
Text: Isaiah 53:4-5  
"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."

Reflection: 
What we see in the prophecy of Isaiah 53:4-5 is that the Messiah, Jesus, would bare our infirmities, take on our sorrows, be pierced for our transgressions, be crushed by taking on the overwhelming sense of sin and be punished in our stead to bring us peace.

Jesus endure the cross so that He could bring to us peace. Not, “peace” as defined in the English language, meaning tranquility and serenity, but “peace” as defined by the Hebrew “Shalom”. As many of you may know, shalom means a lot more than just tranquility and serenity, but shalom is all inclusive to our well-being, our welfare, wholeness, health, soundness, prosperity, favorable, safe, safely, safety, security, trust, as well as, a state of peace, peaceably, peaceful, and being in a right state.

The prophecy of Isaiah tells us, the Messiah was to be punished by being scourged, beat, whipped and ultimately put to physical death, though He committed no crimes, no wrongs, no sin, but would willingly accept being crushed, punished, whipped and ultimately pierced for our transgressions, our iniquities, our sins to bring to shalom to the lives of those who believe in His work on the Cross.

Jesus willfully accepted this as a Lamb to slaughter, so that, He would forever be the atonement for those who believe in His redemptive work on the Cross, which by faith grants us Shalom, peace with God. A right standing with God. A fellowship with God. A friendship with God.

By our having faith in Him and what He did, we vicariously share in His stripes, bruises and affliction to the spiritual; believing He did it on account of healing me from the disease of sin and the granting me Shalom.

Prayer: 
Father, please Grant me Shalom from now and All the Days of my Life in Jesus Name

Purity Foundation Daily Devotional  Wednesday 15th January 2025  Topic: From Darkness To Light 15 - Repentance And Faith  Text: Acts 26:18  "To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me." Reflection:  Repentance and faith are fundamental to salvation, over and over in the scripture we read the word "repent" because "the kingdom of heaven is at hand", the scripture teaches that "God commandeth all men everywhere to repent" and Jesus warned us that "except ye repent ye shall all likewise perish" sin is as natural to the posterity of Adam as wallowing in the mud is natural to swine, so the word repentance is not a beloved thought for those who have beloved sins, but "without holiness no man shall see the lord." What is true repentance? In true repentanc...

Purity Foundation Daily Devotional  Friday 21st February 2025  Topic: Love, Acceptance And Forgiveness 21 - Are You Accepted 2 Text: Ephesians 4:29-30   "Let no corrupt communication proceed out of your mouth, but that which is good to the use of edifying, that it may minister grace unto the hearers. And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption." Reflection:  Continuation From Yesterday's Devotional. If we could truly get hold of, really understand, that we are accepted, adopted, blameless, chosen, forgiven, predestined, and sealed by God’s Holy Spirit on the basis of Christ’s atoning work, we would be so busy praising God all the day long that we would find no opportunity for petty differences. God was satisfied by Christ for sin, Jesus died because I deserved to die. Jesus took my place and died for me. Scripture says that He actually became us: "He who knew no sin, was made sin for us," (2 Corinthians 5:2...

Purity Foundation Daily Devotional  Thursday 30th October 2025 Topic: Divine Restoration 30 - Restored Text: Joel 2:25-26   "And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you. And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the LORD your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed." Reflection:  Restoration comes when a review of the past activities is carried out. When God says He will restore, He means He is going into your past to see those waste that have decayed. Good news: god knows about the pains of the past. He saw you while you struggled and at the end of the day could not break even. God knows about those wasted dreams, He knows about those investments that went down the drain. He knows about those relationships that failed after much investments. He saw the places where your hopes were dashed! ...
