A while ago, we looked at the exchanges that work. Here’s a follow-up sermon to that. In life, an exchange is allowed and ransoms are permitted. In simple terms, an exchange means giving something in order to take another. Even God does exchanges as we’ll clearly see in the following verses.
Isa 43:3-4 KJV. For I am the Lord thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Saviour: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee. 4 Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life.
John 3:16 KJV. For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Isa 53:5 KJV. 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.
There are three approaches to exchanges
Matt. 7:7 KJV. Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you:
- In asking. (ASK)
- In seeking. (SEEK). There are times in life when you need to/must seek out something ahead of time. The approach of seeking is the best.
- In knocking. (KNOCK). Knocking is a forceful approach that is often used when you’re in an emergency.
One thing you should know is that in the camp of God and in the camp of the devil, exchanges work. This is why one who doesn’t believe in God may be offering occultic sacrifices to get things from the devil. It is also important to note that an exchange CAN BE ALTERED i.e. a sacrifice can alter an existing sacrifice.
