God Shows His Love For Us

Jesus Died for Us Bible Verses

The Significance of the Crucifixion of Jesus Scripture


What is Love of God Towards Us? Through this article, we are going to see the demonstration and power of God's love for us through the death of Jesus on the Cross. Thousands of years later, Jesus was taken to the whipping post and whipped beyond imagination, redeeming what Israel lost through disobedience. In Matt. 27:26 Jesus was given over to be scourged. Scourging was the cruelest form of punishment. The flesh was generally cut with horrible whips. Jesus was publicly lashed with a cat of nine tails thirty-nine times. These tails were nine leather throngs loaded with jagged pieces of metal or bone weighted at the end with lead. Under Jewish punishment, a prisoner could be given forty lashes, Deut. 25:3. 

What Other God Demonstrates the Love for Us?


Seldom were forty lashes ever given because to be whipped forty times was often fatal. Psalms 129:3, “The plowers plowed upon my back…” is a small picture of what Jesus underwent. Isaiah 50:6,” I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that plucked off the hair.” 

Our Lord went through incredible wounding to redeem us from disease. Isaiah 53:5 says, “… by his stripes, we are healed.” The blood ran down on every exposed organ of his body, and because of that, we claim our healing in the name of Jesus by his shed blood.

Doctors have said that there are 39 known root diseases. Jesus was lashed 39 times, one time for
each root cause. He was beaten with the cat of nine tails, nine being the number of fullness. Each
disease was redeemed in its fullness. By his stripes, we are healed. Claim it!

Crown of Thorns

In Gen. 3:17-19, because Adam hearkened to the voice of is wife and ate of the tree which God
had forbidden, it brought a curse on the ground. The result is seen in Gen. 3:18: for now thorns and
thistles came forth out of the ground. A thorn has such a prick that every touch brings a wound. 

A thistle multiplies so quickly that some types of thistles are said to have as many as 3 to 400 seeds
within one head. These thorns and thistles injure the ground, choke the good seed, and destroy the
farmer's hopes. This caused Adam to do something he had never done before work by the
sweat of their brow. Gen. 3:19 says, “In the sweat of thy face thou shalt eat bread.” Sweat first
appears on the brow when hard labor is done. 

Adam had never worked a sweat before sin entered. If we don’t understand we have been redeemed from the curse, then the land we go to work on, where we build our business, is still under the curse. We go to work, and we squeeze out a meager existence by the sweat of our brow. We work long hours never to have enough.

After Jesus was beaten, they put a crown of thorns on his brow. It is said that the thorns of the
crown are 3 to 31/2 inches long. As this was forced into his brow, he did not sweat, but blood ran down his face. Jesus shed his blood to break the curse of poverty off our land. Matt. 27:29 says the symbol
of poverty was placed on his head, and our freedom to work and walk in abundance was obtained.
Every day, as we work, we should see an abundant supply, not fruitless labor. Apply the blood from
the crown of thorns!

His Hands were Pierced


Gen. 1:26-28 says God placed all dominion and authority in the hands of Adam and Eve.
Because of sin, Adam and Eve lost that dominion and authority.

When the nails went through the hands of Jesus on the cross, and the blood ran down, his blood
redeemed our dominion and authority. Because of the blood-covered hands, we can lay hold of what
belongs to us in the name of Jesus Christ.

Look at the story of Joseph. Joseph was taken to Potiphar’s house. Even in that place, he
prospered. Gen. 39:2-3 says, “And the Lord was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he
was in the house of his master the Egyptian. And his master saw that the Lord was with him and
that the Lord made all that he did to prosper in his hand.” We need to lay blood-covered hands on
all that is ours and take authority and dominion because of the nail-pierced hands of our Lord. Lay
your hands on yourself, your family, your business, and your church, and take back what was stolen in
the garden. Everything you put your hand to God will cause it to be proper. You have the authority to render everything you encounter harmless.

His Feet were Pierced

Deut. 28:13 says, "and the Lord shall make thee the head, and not the tail; and thou shalt be
above only, and thou shalt not be beneath…” This was God's promise to the children of Israel
if they would hearken to the commandments of the Lord. They didn’t obey, and we have the results.
Deut. 11:24 says, “Every place thereon the soles of your feet shall tread shall be yours...”
When the spike went into the feet of Jesus, through his blood, dominion and authority were taken
back. When the blood ran down, his precious blood gave me back my position in my walk.
Wherever we are, the Kingdom of God is at hand. We have the authority to go into the enemy’s camp,
plunder his territory, and bind him in Jesus' name by the blood. 

God told Joshua in Joshua 3:3, “Every place that the sole of your foot shall tread upon, that have I given unto you…” It is our time to claim what territory the enemy has stolen. Go forth, decreeing and declaring as Esther did when she reversed the curse Haman had decreed against her people. Jesus's feet were pierced to redeem our dominion and authority. Go with blood-covered feet, and like Joshua, be strong and courageous! Take dominion, your home, your city back, and regain all the enemy has stolen.

His Side was Pierced

The sixth place we have suffered loss is where the enemy came and broke our hearts. When the spear was thrust through Jesus’ side, blood and water poured down. Jesus knew what it was to have a broken heart. Judas betrayed him, and the multitude rejected him, saying, ‘Let him be crucified,” one in his inner circle denied that he knew him. 

One of the most heartbreaking things that happened to him was when he hung naked before his own mother on the cross. The greatest heartbreak he experienced was in Mark 15:34 when God suffered abandonment by his own father. He said, “My God, My God, why hast thou forsaken me?” His heart burst from grief, rejection, betrayal, and abandonment. The blood and water ran down from the agony of such grief that he experienced.

Medically, it is said that when you suffer such agony, your heart develops a sack of water around
it. The soldiers didn’t pierce his heart. Our Lord died of a broken heart, causing the water and the
blood to pour out for us. The joy of the Lord is stolen when your heart is broken. We have no
strength. Your whole life is affected. Forgiveness is the key to having your heart healed.

Jesus announced his ministry in Luke 4: 18-19, saying, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me
because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the broken
hearted…” We could claim back our hearts because the blood and water ran down. We can walk in the
joy of the Lord, be strong and safe, and live in an open heaven.

He Was Bruised for Our Iniquities

The last place we have suffered loss is in our emotions; that part of us is the inner man.
Isaiah 53:5 says, “He was wounded for our transgression; he was bruised for our iniquities…” A
bruise is bleeding on the inside. The Bible says that the sins of the Father are visited by the third
and fourth generations. That is called a generational curse. Many are suffering hurts on the inside
from iniquities that our forefathers passed down to us. This results from inner hurts and
bruises many times. Jesus was bruised so we could be healed from the inside out. Because of the blood, we can be healed physically, emotionally, and spiritually.

His blood was in the Garden of Gethsemane, Matt. 26: 30-44. Our first loss was through Adam & Eve’s disobedience in a garden, and now we see Jesus redeeming our will in a garden. He entered the garden, fully aware that he would redeem our wills. We see Jesus crying out to his Father three times, saying, “Not as I will but as thou wilt.” In Luke 22:43-44 it says that Jesus was in so much agony that sweat as drops of blood were falling to the ground.

Medical doctors say that intense fear and agony will cause blood vessels to break beneath the
skin, and blood will come forth like sweat. We have spent millions of dollars to say to our next
generation, “Just Say No!” It hasn’t worked. We should help this generation to understand the
power of the shed blood of Jesus in the garden and see the glorious victory come as they apply his
blood over their will. The greatest battle of mankind is God’s will over my will. The provision was
made through the blood. Claim it!

Whipped and Scourged

In the Old Testament, the Lord promised the children of Israel in Exodus15:26, “ If thou wilt
diligently hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and wilt do that which is right in his sight, and
wilt give ear to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, I will put none of these diseases upon
thee which I have brought upon the Egyptians: for I am the Lord that healeth thee.” When God
said, ‘ I am the Lord that healeth thee,’ that name in the Hebrew is Jehovah Rophe. The children of
Israel disobeyed, and the same diseases that the Egyptians have we experience today.
