“All the ends of the earth will remember and turn to the Lord, and all the families of the nations will bow down before him, for dominion belongs to the Lord and he rules over the nations. All the rich of the earth will feast and worship; all who go down to the dust will kneel before him— those who cannot keep themselves alive. Posterity will serve him; future generations will be told about the Lord. They will proclaim his righteousness, declaring to a people yet unborn: He has done it!”
Psalms 22:27-31 NIV

This is a long one, but I loved what Timothy Keller said in his devotional The Songs of Jesus too much not to share it:

“‘He has done it!’ cries David. ‘It is finished,’ cries Jesus (John 19:30), using the Greek tetelestai, a term that has the connotation of payment. ‘I have paid your debt to the last penny; I have drained your cup to the last drop,’ he says. There is now no condemnation left for us (Romans 8:1).”

What biblical wisdom spoke to you this week?

Psalm 22:27-31 See Psalm book pg 40. He has done it, it is finished

    Such great comfort and encouragement this morning! My debts paid in full, down to the last lowly penny! Hope you have a peaceful day, too, in that comfort…
