Promise #310:
Jesus bore your sins on the cross so you would be healed.
1 Peter 2:24 (WEB)
who his own self bore our sins in his body on the tree,
that we, having died to sins, might live to righteousness;
by whose stripes you were healed.
Thank God for our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, who took upon Himself all of our sins so that we could receive all the tangible benefits of the New Covenant. Jesus sacrificed His own life so we wouldn't have to. Our healing was secured with each stripe of flesh that was torn from His back by the Roman guard.
While we know that our healing will be complete when we see Him face to face, may each one of us appropriate His sacrifice this side of heaven for whatever we need to be healed from today—body, soul, and spirit.
Thank you Jesus for taking upon yourself all my sin and for making the way through your bruised body for me to experience complete wholeness in my life. I will have faith today to believe that by your stripes, I am healed!

Responsive Prayer:
Father, thank You that the cross of Christ is the everlasting symbol of Your unfailing love for me. Help me to believe that Jesus’ death and resurrection marked a new beginning not just for all of humanity, but also for me personally, where I can now live fully loved, forgiven, healed and completely restored to Your loving embrace.
In Jesus’ name, I pray, Amen.
