It is Finished
On this Good Friday, Jane Wolfhope shares the words of this song that says it all! This is a powerful song written by Bill Gaither in 1999.
There's a line that's been drawn through the ages
On that line stands an old rugged cross
On the cross a battle is raging
The earth shakes with the force of the conflict
And the sun refuses to shine
For there hangs God's Son in the balance
And then through the darkness He cried
It is finished, the battle is over
It is finished there'll be no more war
It is finished the end of the conflict
It is finished and Jesus is Lord.
Still in my heart the battle was raging
Not all prisoners of war have come home
There were battlefields of my own making
I didn't know that the war had been won
Then I heard that the King of the ages
Had fought all the battles for me
And the victory was mine for the claiming
And now praise His name, I am free
It is finished the battle is over
It is finished there'll be no more war
It is finished the end of the conflict
It is finished and Jesus is Lord

What a blessed season of our lives to declare His gift to us . “God raised us from death to life with Christ Jesus, and he has given us a place beside Christ in heaven. You were saved by faith in God, who treats us much better than we deserve. This is God's gift to you, and not anything you have done on your own.”
Ephesians 2:4-6, 8 CEVDCI
In Christian love, Jane
Make it a Freeing Friday! God is good…
