The Great Exchange

"God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God" -- II Corinthians 5:21 NIV

If you've accepted Jesus as Lord and Master of your life, you are the righteousness of God! That means you are an extension of His virtue. You are approved by Him. You are in right-standing with Him. Jesus not only paid the punishment for your sins, the Bible says He actually became sin. He took it upon Himself so that you could take God's righteousness upon yourself and His blessings into your being. It's the great exchange. Don't let sin hold you back any longer. Don't let the enemy lie to you and make you feel guilty and condemned. First John 1:9 says that if we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us and cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If there is anything in your life that is holding you back today, confess it to God. Let Him cleanse you and make you new. Remember, He paid a precious price so that you could be His righteousness. Let that sink into your heart today. As you meditate on the truth that you are righteous, you'll begin to change how you think and act. You'll reflect more of God's character, and you will move forward into the life of victory that He has in store!

Do this great exchange in every area of your life and see how curses are broken, diseases are healed, problems are sorted, broken hearts are repaired, minds are renewed, and great wonders will take place in every area you apply to.

Print the sinner's prayer along with the reference scriptures and stick it where your eyesight often falls - on your desk, on the kitchen wall, on the toilet door, next to your bed etc... so to remind you to apply the great exchange as new areas are made known to you.


[ Sinner's Prayer take every single area that needs healing to mind and confess this prayer ]

Heavenly Father, I am a sinner and unworthy of You. But because You loved me You sent your only Son Jesus to save me. I thank You for cleansing me and making me new by the Blood of His sacrifice. He humbled Himself for me, He suffered and died on the cross for my sins. Jesus I thank You for making me Your righteousness by washing me of all my sins, for healing me and making me whole. Show me if there is anything in my heart that is displeasing to You, that I may open that area to receive your healing touch. Lord Jesus I choose to honor You with my whole being all the days of my life. By your Spirit lead me and mold me to walk in your footstep and to be like You. I ask this in your mighty Name. Amen....


[ Reference Scripture ]

1 John 1:5-10 [KJV]
5 This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.
6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth:
7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
10 If we say that we have not sinned, we make him a liar, and his word is not in us.


II Corinthians 5:21 [RSV]
21 For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.
