The crucifixion, suffering, and death of Christ, though seen as disappointment, were God’s appointed method for salvation.
๐๐ก๐ ๐๐ซ๐จ๐๐ฅ๐๐ฆ
Man fell into sin, expressing Satan’s nature (S-I-N) and bringing shame, suffering, and sickness. Adam’s original disappointment (hiding due to nakedness and subsequent banishment) needed a divine solution.
๐๐ก๐ ๐๐ฉ๐ฉ๐จ๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐๐ ๐๐จ๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง
God’s plan was set in motion from the beginning (Genesis 3:15). The crucifixion fulfilled this appointment, where Jesus’s heel was bruised, but the head of the devil was crushed.
๐๐ก๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ญ๐๐จ๐ฆ๐
Through this divine appointment, the devil’s power is broken. Sins are forgiven, shame is taken away, sickness is healed, and the individual is set free. The life of Joseph, though initially disappointed by betrayal, was God’s appointed path to save many people.
2. ๐๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐จ๐ง๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐ฌ๐ข๐จ๐ง – ๐๐ข๐ฌ ๐๐ฉ๐ฉ๐จ๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ ๐๐๐ญ๐๐ซ ๐๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐ข๐ฌ๐๐ฉ๐ฉ๐จ๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ
The process of moving from disappointment (sin and failure) to appointment (new life) is called genuine conversion and transformation.
๐๐ก๐ ๐๐ข๐ฌ๐๐ฉ๐ฉ๐จ๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ (๐ ๐๐ข๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ซ๐)
Like King David, individuals can fall into sin (e.g., betrayal, corruption, stealing) and become a source of disappointment to God, family, and neighbours. David confessed his need for mercy because he felt he had lost all wisdom and truthfully saw himself as a disappointment.
๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ฉ๐๐ง๐ญ๐๐ง๐๐ (๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ฒ ๐๐ฎ๐ญ)
Conversion is initiated by genuine regret and remorse for sin, acknowledging that sin separates the individual from God’s favour and joy. True repentance requires forsaking past sins and returning to the Lord with gratitude for Christ’s sacrifice.
๐๐ก๐ ๐๐ฉ๐ฉ๐จ๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ (๐๐จ๐ง๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐ฌ๐ข๐จ๐ง)
The conversion transforms shame, sorrow, and suffering into the joy of salvation and a right spirit. Forgiveness is received, and the life is radically altered, giving the freedom to fulfill one’s calling. God sent Jesus to turn everyone away from their iniquities.
3. ๐๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐ฎ๐ซ๐ – ๐๐ข๐ฌ ๐๐ฉ๐ฉ๐จ๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ ๐๐๐ง๐๐๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ซ ๐๐ข๐ฌ๐๐ฉ๐ฉ๐จ๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ
Healing and deliverance from every physical and spiritual problem are available because Christ bore our sicknesses.
๐๐ก๐ ๐๐ข๐ฌ๐๐ฉ๐ฉ๐จ๐ข๐ง๐ญ๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ (๐๐ข๐๐ค๐ง๐๐ฌ๐ฌ)
Every sickness, chronic illness, physical immobility, blocked heart, and scattered thought is a disappointment from God’s original design. Many seek help through natural remedies and professional appointments, and leave disappointed.
๐๐ก๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ซ๐ (๐๐๐๐ฅ๐ข๐ง๐ )
Jesus bore our infirmities and sicknesses to fulfil prophecy. He heals all who come to Him. This divine appointment can cancel disappointment, break every yoke, and set the individual free.
๐๐ก๐ ๐๐๐ฅ๐ฅ ๐ญ๐จ ๐๐ซ๐๐ง๐ฌ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ฆ๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง
The individual must come without excuse, recognising the disappointment in their character and asking for the divine appointment of forgiveness and salvation.
