Are You Broken?

“Who has believed our report? And to whom has the arm of the LORD been revealed? For He shall grow up before Him as a tender plant, And as a root out of dry ground. He has no form or comeliness; And when we see Him, There is no beauty that we should desire Him. He is despised and rejected by men, A Man of sorrows and acquainted with grief. And we hid, as it were, our faces from Him; He was despised, and we did not esteem Him. Surely He has borne our griefs And carried our sorrows; Yet we esteemed Him stricken, Smitten by God, and afflicted. 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. All we like sheep have gone astray; We have turned, every one, to his own way; And the LORD has laid on Him the iniquity of us all. He was oppressed and He was afflicted, Yet He opened not His mouth; He was led as a lamb to the slaughter, And as a sheep before its shearers is silent, So He opened not His mouth. He was taken from prison and from judgment, And who will declare His generation? For He was cut off from the land of the living; For the transgressions of My people He was stricken. And they made His grave with the wicked— But with the rich at His death, Because He had done no violence, Nor was any deceit in His mouth. Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise Him; He has put Him to grief. When You make His soul an offering for sin, He shall see His seed, He shall prolong His days, And the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in His hand. He shall see the labor of His soul, and be satisfied. By His knowledge My righteous Servant shall justify many, For He shall bear their iniquities. Therefore I will divide Him a portion with the great, And He shall divide the spoil with the strong, Because He poured out His soul unto death, And He was numbered with the transgressors, And He bore the sin of many, And made intercession for the transgressors.”
Isaiah 53:1-12

The above scriptures makes me stop and think of the world when Jesus came to earth, and the world now. Look at all the brokenness of mankind.

But, Jesus came into this world to save us from all our sins, transgressions, griefs and infirmities, our brokenness.

The Hebrew word translated griefs (or infirmities) means physical sickness and disease. The one for sorrows means physical and mental pain, anguish, grief, and sorrow .

All of this was taken from us and placed upon Jesus.

He was punished to bring us peace with Father God through salvation, by His blood.
And by His wounds we are healed, physically, spiritually, mentally, and socially.

The world is broken. But, as we kneel down and ask for forgiveness of our sins, God will restore us back as His children.

Father God gave His Son Jesus, so all His children could be saved from all their brokenness.

Remember, you may feel like a broken puzzle. You may feel you have missing pieces, and cannot be put back together.

“Today Father God is going to pick up those scattered puzzle pieces of your life. When He puts them back together, you will be the most beautiful puzzle in the world. Father God is the Architect of broken lives. He does not use glue, tape are bandages to repair. He will make your life brand new. He only uses the best building materials. Pat Aman”

So, today, kneel down and look up to your Father God. He is ready to rebuild and restore.

Father God takes broken people and makes beautiful people.

“Father God will
