Victories of the Cross

Come, and see the victories of the cross. Christ's wounds are thy healings, His agonies thy repose, His conflicts thy conquests, His groans thy songs, His pains thine ease, His shame thy glory, His death thy life, His sufferings thy salvation.

[Matthew Henry]




3 John 1:2 … Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth.


Isaiah 53:5 … But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.



Psalm 103:2-5 … Bless the LORD, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's.



1 Corinthians 15:57 … But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. ♥
