An Assignment Fulfilled

John 19:30

"...Jesus said, "it is finished." With that, he bowed his head and gave up his spirit."

Jesus went to the cross so that we might be redeemed and restored to true fellowship with the Father. Without his willingness, love and sacrifice, we would be lost.

He endured suffering He didn't deserve. He was mocked, beaten, and treated like a criminal--for our sake. As we reflect on His life, ministry and purpose, we can rejoice. It was love that came to conquer sin, and it was love that redeemed us from the clutches of darkness.

By declaring, "It is finished" Jesus destroyed every plan of the enemy. We received our salvation in full. We received healing, freedom, hope and a new life when he declared it.

What great love! We too can boldly declare, "It is finished," when we are reminded of past sins, overcome with fear, or feel that all hope is lost. We can remember the sacrifice of Jesus and all He has done for us, and cry out, "It is finished" With this, we rightfully place Him back on the throne of our hearts as the reigning King, silencing and dethroning every thought and spirit that says otherwise.

What Jesus did was an unmatched act of love. If you ever doubt His love for you, remember the cross and the suffering He endured--while you were yet a sinner.

At the cross, Jesus bore our sin and shame. He gave everything so we could be free. Today is not just somber--it is sacred.

Your Testimony offers Hope

Psalm 71:15

“I will tell of Your goodness; all day long, I will speak of Your salvation.”

When is the right time to share the goodness of God? If you answered every opportunity, you’re right. Sharing the goodness of God and the good news that brought us salvation should be a priority for every believer.

Our testimony is not just about our victories—it’s about how we endured the tests and weathered the storm of life. Experiencing God’s goodness in difficult times must be shared, not only to ignite hope and build our own faith but so to encourage those around us. Our testimony isn’t just for our spiritual growth—it could be the key to someone else’s breakthrough.

Our attitude and actions during hard times can inspire others. When we walk in the Spirit and imitate Christ, we draw others in who are curious about our faith and strength in Jesus. This doesn’t mean we won’t face challenges or feel overwhelmed, but it reminds us that the Holy Spirit is with us—we’re never walking alone.

Every part of our testimony matters. Our willingness to share what God has done is vital in uplifting others in the body of Christ. When we overcome, we remind others that they, too, are overcomers. When we speak of His salvation, Gos is glorified. When we share the good news, lives are changed. When we tell our testimony, we give hope. Big or small, we all have powerful stories to share that proclaim: God is good!
