No Empty Words!

“so is my word that goes out from my mouth:

    It will not return to me empty,

but will accomplish what I desire

    and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.”

Isaiah 55:11

 

Gods’ Word does not return to Him empty but achieves the purpose for which He sent it.

God sent His son Jesus – the Word made flesh – to achieve His purposes on the earth.

The last words Jesus spoke before He died were “It is finished.”

The “it” Jesus spoke of was all that the Father had sent Him to do.

It wouldn’t be long before the Word of God – Jesus – returned to the Father.

He did not return to the Father ‘empty’ but accomplished all the desires of His Father.

There was not one purpose left undone – all had been achieved by the Word made flesh.  

John 19:28 tells us this:

“Later, knowing that everything had now been finished,

and so that Scripture would be fulfilled, Jesus said, “I am thirsty.”

Jesus surrendered His life on the cross knowing all had been fulfilled.

He had pleased the Father and while doing that He had also revealed the Father.

He redeemed mankind and fulfilled the Word spoken by the Father way back in the Garden.

“And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers;

 he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel.”

Genesis 3:15

What a wonderful work was complete.

We were brought back into fellowship with the Father.

We are now a new creation.

We are called to be His Word – His representation in the earth.

You and I have a work to do.

We are called to complete the work He has purposed for us as well.

The one who hears – “Well done…” is the same who can declare – “It is finished.”
