For you know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that though He was rich, yet for your sake He became poor, so that you through His poverty might become rich. 2 Corinthians 8:9.
Today your LORD (יהוה) God (אלהים) says:
Joy in the divine exchange. And that is a forever joy that no one will ever take away from you. Jesus emptied Himself so you could have His fullness. I gave Him so you can live.
And no economic drop, no shaking of the kingdoms of the world, no famine, drought, or anything in the world can stop you from receiving the fullness that will cover every area of your life.
And of His fullness you have all received, grace on top of grace. I have lavished My grace on you in Him and will continue to do so forever. Ephesians 2:7.
By this My love was manifested in YOU, that I sent My only begotten Son into the world so that YOU might live through Him. In this is love, not that you loved Me, but that I loved you and sent My Son to be the propitiation for your sins. 1 John 4:9-10.
What am I talking about? My Son took all that was bad in you into Himself and gave you all His good. He took your faults and gave you His perfection. He took your sins and gave you His righteousness. He took all your pains to give you a pain free body. He took all your diseases so that you would have no disease. He took all your impurity and gave you His purity. He took your defeat and gave you His victory. I have made you a new creation in Christ, the old is gone and all is new. In Him, I gave you every spiritual blessing in Heaven.
Think of your heavenly account like a Divine Exchange Department Store. It has a department filled with good things for every area of your life. There is a passcode to enter the store and it is voice activated. It is “Jesus is Lord,” and that opens the front door and the door to every department in the store.
Once you enter the store, you can exchange your sins for My righteousness. You can exchange your pains and illnesses for perfect pain free health and wholeness. You can exchange eternal death for eternal life. You can exchange lack for abundance. You can exchange anxiety for peace. You can exchange the curse for the blessing. And everything in the store has been paid for already for you by the Blood of Jesus.
He is the lamb slain since before the foundation of the world. That means I planned to give you the life of My Son so that you could live your life through Him. You were dead in your sins and offenses but I made you alive and freed from those things in Him. I gave Him for you. That is how precious you are to Me.
And in Heaven, the redeemed are gratefully singing a new song, “Worthy are You to take the scroll (title deed) and to break its seals; for You were slain, and purchased for God with Your blood from every tribe and tongue and people and nation. You have made them to be a kingdom and priests to our God; and they will reign upon the earth.” Revelation 5:9-10.
I foretold this to My prophet Isaiah, but you must see it in the language in which it was originally written to understand. It is this, “Since you are precious in My sight, since you are honored and I love you, I will give Adam in your place and other peoples in exchange for your life.” Isaiah 43:4.
I will give Adam in your place. The second and last Adam. The first Adam, who had been formed incorruptible from the incorruptible seed of My Word, corrupted the seed by sin and took all you his descendants into the realm of darkness and death. But the second Adam, formed incorruptible from the incorruptible seed of My Word, took your sins upon His sinless self to be the ransom for you all to redeem you from darkness and death to light and life. I gave Him up for you. Jesus laid down His life for His sheep. And then He took it up again to His resurrected life to you as well.
I so loved the world, I gave you My only begotten Son, so that all of you who believe in Him will NEVER perish but have eternal life. How does that happen? The divine exchange, He took on the sinful you and, in exchange, He gave you the perfection of the purest, most holy, most amazing man that ever lived upon this earth. In Him you are made complete, lacking in no good thing. In Him, I have made you perfect. In Him, I make you the person you always wanted to be. Pure, blameless, righteous, kind, holy, true, joyful, faithful, loving, for that is who He is. Love. Light. Peace. Salvation. In Him I have made you beautiful. I beautify the afflicted ones with Salvation.
When you are baptized in Christ, you are clothed in Christ. I clothe you in the garments of salvation and the robe of righteousness. He has even exchanged your clothes for His. Like the Father did for the prodigal son when he came home. The first Adam lost the glory in which he was clothed when he sinned and was exposed naked in shame. In the second Adam I have passed by you and thrown My mantle of glory over you that you might live in the beauty of holiness.
For by one offering He has perfected for all time those who are sanctified. Hebrews 10:14. For by My doing you are in Christ Jesus, who became to YOU wisdom from Me and righteousness, sanctification, and redemption. 1 Corinthians 1:30.
Do not be subject to self-condemnation any longer, there is now no condemnation for you who are in Christ. The divine exchange has taken place. He took you condemnation and I declared you “Not guilty!” And you must agree to have it, for it is by your words you are acquitted and by your words you are condemned.
My Holy Spirit testifies to you that your sins and offenses I remember no more. So you must testify as well. I made Jesus who knew no sin to be sin on your behalf so that you might become the righteousness of God in Him. 2 Corinthians 5:21. How? The divine exchange. I accounted all your sins to Him and His righteousness to you.
My Son emptied Himself of all He is and has so that you can be enriched hereby and take all His riches, the UNFATHOMABLE riches of Christ. In Him, by His poverty, you have become rich.
There is cause for rejoicing here.
The Divine Exchange Department Store is full of collectibles. Just come in the Name of Jesus and back up your shopping spree with the payment already made by the Blood of Jesus and take all you need just when you need it. It will never run out. Angels are stocking the shelves from My rich treasure house and the will even bring it to you as home delivery. Remember they are serving you who are heirs of salvation.
All of the things you obtain at the store are the rich spoils of the battle Jesus fought and won for you. He shares the booty with you. “Therefore, I will allot Him a portion with the great, and He will divide the booty with the strong; because He poured out Himself to death, and was numbered with the transgressors; yet He Himself bore the sin of many, and interceded for the transgressors.” Isaiah 53:12.
He Himself bore the sins of many. It was your sins, sickness, and pains He bore on that Cross and the cruel events leading up to it. And you are free now of those. The Divine Exchange.
I love you. Just return what you do not want to keep and exchange it for all that you are dreaming to be. It is there for you already.
