Already Done

Hey, Y'all,

Our brother Chris sent this text out a couple of weeks ago, been percolating in the back of my mind ever since. Funny how you see different facets of texts at different times...Thanks for the reminder, brother! Here we go:

"In this world you will have trouble. But take heart!
I have overcome the world."

John 16:33

Today for some reason the fact that He has already overcome the world jumped out at me. Soothing thought. He isn't someday maybe-in-the-distant-future going to overcome the lord (usurper) of this world. He's already done it. Bank on it; it's "bruised His heel, crushed his head" definitively done.

"Take heart!"

It is finished.



You've been prayed for today...

J

Deep hope, real and present reality. It is an awesome promise, well thought by Jesus long time ago . . . "Take heart", "It is finished" !!!! Love, facho
