The Complete Exchange
But He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our
iniquities; The chastisement for our peace was upon Him, And by His
stripes we are healed. - Isaiah 53:4-5 (NKJV).
In this Scripture, it is clear that Isaiah is speaking of a future
event, of Jesus’ crucifixion. The only way he could know of this
future event is if God told him.
This verse states that the chastisement for our peace was upon Him.
That word peace here is the transliterated Hebrew word Shalowm,
which means completeness, soundness, welfare, peace. That includes
safety, soundness (in body), welfare, health, prosperity, peace, quiet,
tranquillity, contentment, friendship.
He took our punishment in His body on the cross, so that we can have
completeness in our spirits, minds, bodies, finances and in our
relationships.
He took our punishment and God’s wrath for our sins on Himself. He
took the effects of the curse on Himself. He did it so we can exchange
our sins, our sicknesses, our pain, our sorrow, our mental distress,
our bad relationships and financial problems for completeness, for
peace.
How wonderful is He that He did this for us?

Have you received Jesus as your Lord and Saviour? Do you believe
Jesus died to pay the price for your sin? That He was raised from the
dead? Then just pray aloud, “Lord Jesus, I repent of all my sins.
Come into my heart and be my Lord and Saviour.” If you believed in
your heart and confessed with your mouth, you are Born-again. Let us
know if you prayed this prayer
