Isaiah 53:10-12 says, "Yet it was the Lord’s will to crush him and cause him to suffer, and though the Lord makes his life an offering for sin, he will see his offspring and prolong his days, and the will of the Lord will prosper in his hand.
After he has suffered, he will see the light of life and be satisfied; by his knowledge my righteous servant will justify many, and he will bear their iniquities.
12 Therefore I will give him a portion among the great and he will divide the spoils with the strong, because he poured out his life unto death, and was numbered with the transgressors. For he bore the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors."
Jesus was given a portion among the great and will divide the spoils among the strong. And we are in him, which means this is also a promise for us. In him we also have a portion among the great. God is great and he is our portion.
Today's communion is a time of gratitude for the sacrifice of Jesus and that in him we have a portion among the great.
I am praying for you.
Daniel
