The LORD has Redeemed-The LORD has Ransomed

 Hear the word of the LORD, O you nations, and declare it in the isles afar off, and say, He that scattered Israel will gather him, and keep him, as a shepherd does his flock.   For the LORD has redeemed Jacob, and ransomed him from the hand of him that was stronger than he.

The LORD has released you, he paid the price for your sin, a price you could not pay, he paid in full.   You have been redeemed  with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:

God's property words written in yellow, gold, and red, Sin don't own you, it has no legal right to you any more, you have been set free, you are no longer a home born slave to sin, you have been bought with a price  1 Corinthians 6:20 For you are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's. YOU ARE NOW GOD'S PROPERTY.
Therefore they shall come and sing in the height of Zion, and shall flow together to the goodness of the LORD, for wheat, and for wine, and for oil, and for the young of the flock and of the herd: and their soul shall be as a watered garden; and they shall not sorrow any more at all.

 Then shall the virgin rejoice in the dance, both young men and old together: for I will turn their mourning into joy, and will comfort them, and make them rejoice from their sorrow.

 And I will satiate the soul of the priests with fatness, and my people shall be satisfied with my goodness, saith the LORD. (Jer. 31)

Speak His Word Only   Isaiah 53     What Jesus did for us                                                         The just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he has borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. 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.  All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD had laid on him the iniquity of us all.  He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he open not his mouth. He was taken from prison and from judgment: a

Women of the Bible Her name is Rhoda, and it is translated, Rose. When Peter  was in prison, prayers was made for him without ceasing by the church. And the Lord sent his angel, and delivered Peter out of the hand of Herod, and from all the expectation of the people of the Jews.  The angel led him to the iron gate that lead to the city which opened to him and he came to the house of Mary the mother of John, whose surname was Mark; where many were gathered together praying.  And as Peter knocked at the door of the gate, a damsel came to hearken (or to ask who was there), named Rhoda. And when she knew Peter's voice, she opened not the gate for gladness, but ran in, and told how Peter stood at the gate. And they said to her, You are mad. But she constantly affirmed that it was even so.
