"When he had received the drink, Jesus said, "It is finished." With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit." (John 19:29-30 NIV) What was thought by some to be a certain end, was really the beginning of something that would never end. It is finished did not refer to the end of His life, but to the end of His assignment. From Servant to Savior and from Savior to Sovereign Lord! Indeed, IT IS FINISHED!
PRAYER: Lord, thank you for finishing your earthly assignment and opening for all mankind endless heavenly opportunities! Praise be to your name forever! Amen.
Eph 4:8-10. . . .The psalmist tells about this, for he says that when Christ returned triumphantly to heaven after his resurrection and victory over Satan, he gave generous gifts to men. Notice that it says he returned to heaven. This means that he had first come down from the heights of heaven, far down to the lowest parts of the earth. The same one who came down is the one who went back up, that he might fill all things everywhere with himself, from the very lowest to the very highest. TLB
