It’s Finished

Scripture: John 19:30 When he had received the drink, Jesus said, “It is finished.” With that, he bowed his head and gave up the spirit.

Observation: It is finished means the same as Paid in Full. Jesus paid the full price for my sins by suffering on the cross and dying. You would think with that sacrifice I would stop sinning, but I don’t. Even as I’m writing this, I have my doubts and worry and I’m acting like a child while my thoughts run wild in my mind.

Application: I need to remind myself daily what my God gave up for me so that I may be sinless to my Father, not taking it lightly but to try with all my heart, soul and mind to be the best I can be.

Prayer: My Lord, I thank you for your sacrifice and I have been bought by your blood. Direct me now and make me this man you desire.
