It Has Been Finished
When the Lord Jesus Christ had borne all of the sin of all mankind on the cross, He cried out, “It is finished.” The original Greek for these three English words is one word, ‘tetelestai’, and is in a form which means, ‘it has been completely finished and will continue to be forever.’ And so, each day, by His grace, I stand, against all fear, feelings, unwanted thoughts, world events, condemnation, personal trouble, failure, etc., in this absolute fact that Jesus Christ has finished for all time and eternity everything necessary for my complete deliverance from this body of sin. …
The Way of Escape
Reflections From the Psalms In the Lord put I my trust: how say ye to my soul, Flee as a bird to your mountain? (Ps. 11:1) When we find ourselves in a situation that makes us unhappy, or one in which we are suffering, it is only natural to want to FLEE the situation. And there can be times when it is the will of God to remove oneself from a destructive situation. But there is one thing we cannot escape, no matter where we might flee: Ourselves. For, “The Lord trieth the righteous.” (Ps. 11:5) We may also be …

GOD’S GREATNESS—A SOURCE OF COMFORT
Psalm 89:1-10(KJV) 89 I will sing of the mercies of the Lord for ever: with my mouth will I make known thy faithfulness to all generations. 2 For I have said, Mercy shall be built up for ever: thy faithfulness shalt thou establish in the very heavens. 3 I have made a covenant with my chosen, I have sworn unto David my servant, 4 Thy seed will I establish for ever, and build up thy throne to all generations.

Victory in Christ
Reflections Death is swallowed up in victory….thanks be to God, which gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. (1 Cor 15:54-57) Victory is not handed to us merely BECAUSE of Christ – as a THING. Rather, all victory is IN the Person of Jesus Christ. In short, God doesn’t give us a victory – He gives us Christ – whose very presence in us is the victory. The only real victory in all of God’s creation is that of the resurrection life of Jesus Christ. And the victory of that life is total. The good news is that …
