God finished the work of creation on the sixth day, then rested on the seventh, the Sabbath. The sixth day is the day when work is completed. Two-thousand years ago, God again labored on the sixth day... on the cross. On the Hebrew calendar, the sixth day comes to an end as the sun sets. So it was then that Messiah finished His work, Friday afternoon, just as the sun was going down. Why? Because the sixth day is the day when one's work must be finished. So on the cross, He said, "It is finished." Then He rested. What does this have to do with you? Most people live in a state of incompleteness, a state that is never finished, never enough, and always needing more. But Messiah labored on the sixth day so He could finish all that is unfinished. He died to give you the gift of completion. Find your completion in Him. Take the unfinished issues of your life and bring them to the cross and say, 'It is finished.' Then you, as did Messiah, can likewise enter into the blessings of the seventh day.
