THE GREAT EXCHANGE !

Its so amaizing to note that everytime we love , encounter so much

Joy or sometimes experience beauty , a hint of the nature of our maker reflects within us . Our ability to perceive and appreciate

value is an extent of His attributes . We mankind have a divine sperm

in each and everyone of us that can reproduce one of its own , we

have an original nature that is innocent and blameless , yet out of our

ignorance have embraced and exchanged the Glory of GOD within us

to an inferior identity riddled with anger , greed and frustration , just

like the story of the eagle that was captured and held captive in a zoo

for a decade . When they tried to release it with much excitement and

anticipation , it was one thing to get the eagle out of the cage , but

how do you get the cage out of the bird ? In the mind of this eagle , it

was still held captive in the zoo because it remained in the pathetic

prisoner of an inferior mindset , nothing changed until much later when another eagle bagan to call in the area . The eyes of the zoo

eagle immediately lit up , and the next moment she took off in majestic flight to soar in unrestricted space , this story leaves one with a deep impression on his mind that in the light of Paul’s gospel

we are left with one urgent priority , which is to announce to the

nations with boldness and confidence the truth about their original

identity and mirror reflect the integrity of their innocence . Now

the church is the answer of GOD to man’s lost identity , releasing

us into HIS inheritance where HE Has blessed us with all spiritual

blessings in the heavenlies Eph 1 : 3 . As we enlighten each other on

the great exchange that took place on the cross of calvary when

Jesus Christ made the GREAT EXCHANGE that surpassed the fall of men due to sin when HE , at the cross carried our sins , so that

We might receive all of forgiveness ; but it was our sins that did that to him , that ripped and tore and crushed him—our sins . He took the

Punishement , and that made us whole Is 53 : 5 (MSG) . It was at the

Cross that Jesus Christ became sin so that we might be made righteous with His righteousness ; for He has made him who knew no

Sin , to be sin for us , that we might become the righteousness of GOD in HIM 2 Cor 5 : 21 ( MKJV) . It was at the cross that this great

Exchange that would impact the whole world and change the state of

Mankind forever took place and that calls for our undivided attention

when Christ at the cross carried our sickness and dieases so that we

can be healed and made whole ; surely he has borne our griefs and

carried our sorrows ; yet we esteemed him stricken by God , and

afflicted . But he was wounded for our transgressions , he was bruised for our iniquities ; upon him was the chastisemet that made us

whole , and with his stripes we are healed Is 53 : 4 ,5 .( RSV ). It was

at the cross that this man Jesus was made a curse so that we can be

a complete blessing , that dark cloud that hovered upon us because of the law , that blocked us from attaining and be blessed of GOD was

dealt with on the cross ; Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law having become a curse for us –for it is written , cursed is the

one who hangs on a tree and we cannot wish this testimony away

we are the testimony of this great transaction that took place on the cross calvary ..
