The thing that's stood out to me to most this Easter season, is Jesus's words from John 19:30:
"It is finished."
Because "it is finished" I am made right with God.
Because "it is finished" I am no longer bound by sin.
Because "it is finished" God sees me as pure, holy, and perfect.
Because "it is finished" He sees His Son when he looks at me.
Because "it is finished" I am free to glory in Him and find joy in His presence.
Praise God "It is Finished!"
It Was Finished on the Cross
By Kristie Braselton & Regi Stone
Once we all stood as captive slaves
The bonds of sin and death our chains
But he with blood our freedom bought
It was finished on the cross
It was finished on the cross
The weight of sin, the sting of death
Were swallowed up by righteousness
Vanquished by the Son of God
It was finished on the cross
It was finished on the cross
Chorus
And we rejoice in victory
We lift our eyes to Calvary
Before the battle has begun
By Jesus’ blood it has been won
It was finished on the cross
And while our hearts have turned from sin
This flesh is waging war within
Though sin remains, our guilt is gone
It was finished on the cross
It was finished on the cross
His gift of grace our heart betrays
With urge to merit or repay
We need not live to pay the cost
For it was finished on the cross
It was finished on the cross
