Galatians 3:13 - Christ has redeemed us from the curse of the law, having become a curse for us
But why did Jesus have to die on the cross, when the capital punishment of Israel during the time of Christ was stoning and not crucifixion?
Jesus hung and died on the cross because He knew the law which says that “anyone hung on a tree is under God's curse.” (Deut 21:23) He wanted to redeem us from every curse of the law, so He went to the cross, “having become a curse for us”. Jesus took all our curses at the cross, so that we can take all His blessings!
So if there is an area in our life in which we feel oppressed or a condition that refuses to heal, say, “Christ has redeemed me from this condition. I refuse it and reject it in Jesus’ name because by His stripes I am healed!” (1 Pet 2:24). Believe it and say it until you see it! The Word will become flesh!
Thought for the day!
With Jesus, every curse in your life stands destroyed. (Rom 8:1). Therefore, expect only the blessings of Jesus to come upon you and overtake you!
