Finished! The Victory Cry!

Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned--every one--to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all.

Isaiah 53:4-6

"oh, to see the dawn of the darkest day//Christ on the road to Calvary//

tried by sinful man, torn and beat and then//nailed to a cross of wood.

"oh, to see the pain written on your face//bearing the awesome weight of sin//

every bitter thought, every evil deed//crowning your blood stained brow//

now the daylight flees; now the ground beneath//quakes as its maker bows his head//curtain torn in two, dead are raised to life// 

FINISHED THE VICTORY CRY//

this the power of the cross; 

Christ became sin for us. 

took the blame, 

bore the wrath, 

we stand forgiven at the cross."

(song by Keith Getty and Stuart Townend

Go listen to it here )

Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. Consider him who endured such opposition from sinful men, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart. 

Hebrews 12:2-3

Finished! It is finished.

Jesus has won, Jesus has conquered. 

King Jesus Reigns.
