The Timeless

The Timeless…

Seven hundred years before Jesus came, Isaiah 53 declared, “He was wounded for our transgressions. He was bruised for our iniquities. By His stripes we’re healed.”

Those words are written in past tense, as if it already happened. Why? In Hebrew you have two real tenses; perfect and imperfect. Past is used for the perfect. This means it’s a finished thing. So we say, it’s past, because it’s complete. But it really means it’s perfect.

Jesus’s perfect work of salvation, transcends time, it covers everything, it’s finished. Your salvation is in the perfect tense because it’s finished, from the start. So stop living in the imperfect as if you have to achieve it.

Live from the finished perfect work of Calvary. Learn how to start from the end, how to grow in the completion and be filled in the fullness. Learn how to fight the fight that’s already fought, to win the victory that’s won.

Pray the answered prayer, live the completed life, because your salvation is perfect, it’s finished, even from the beginning. Start living from the finished work because what is finished is perfect.

I have brought you glory on earth by finishing the work you gave me to do. John 17:4

The victory is already yours. Believe in that perfect work. Walk in it and thank Him for it.

Walk daily with God at your side!

Love always,

Ed
