Intro: He Died Praying
These last words of Christ reveal much to us about His position, His power, and His provision. I want to consider the last words that Jesus spoke before He died: Father, Into Thy Hands I Commend My Spirit.

"Into thy hand I commit my spirit" was a very much used quotation from . We are told that Jewish mothers taught this as a prayer to their small children so that it might be said before they retired to bed at night. Many mothers today teach their children to say:
Now I; lay me down to sleep: I pray the Lord my soul to keep. If I should die before I wake; I pray the Lord my soul to take.

Let's consider what is revealed in this prayer.
Let's consider what is revealed in this prayer.
Jesus Died Praying to God—In the final moments prior to His death, Jesus spent them in prayer to God. He used those final precious moments as an opportunity to talk and commune with the Father. He lived in prayer and died in prayer. I started out right and I want to finish right!
Jesus Died Trusting God—Jesus died committing His spirit to God. He had endured the cross, even being forsaken for a time, but His prayer revealed that His confidence and trust in God the Father had not wavered.
■What a powerful lesson for us to learn. God is good and He is good all the time. God is sovereign and in control of every aspect of our lives. We must trust Him in the valley the same as we do on the mountain. Our circumstances may change, but our God doesn't! -Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.
C. Jesus Died Submitted to God—He never once refused to submit to the will of God. Jesus knew that He must die so that sinners might live and He submitted to that. He was not concerned with His desire, but that of God the Father.
■If Jesus was willing to submit to suffering and death, bearing our sins in His body, surely we can submit to live for the Lord and serve Him. If He can Die for me, I ought to Live for Him.
Jesus Died Honoring God—He fully submitted to God's will. There was not one area that was left undone or one instance of disobedience. As Jesus died on the cross, He did so honoring the Father.

For many who beheld the cross that day, it likely appeared that a tragic end had come to a mere man. Jesus had been tried and condemned to death upon the cross. Most of those who followed Him were not present that day. Few who cared for Him were near the cross.
Clearly Jesus had spoken words of compassion, seeking forgiveness for those who had wronged Him. He had promised the thief that he would enjoy paradise that very day. But there were words of anguish as well. Jesus had cried, My God, My God, Why hast Thou forsaken Me? For those who looked on mocking, it may have appeared that Jesus had been abandoned, forced to die alone upon the cross.
Jesus suffered the wrath of God for humanity, and He bore that wrath alone. God had turned His back upon His Son as He bore our sin, but Jesus was not forsaken, hopeless of any future fellowship. Here we find that Jesus once again cried out unto His Father, revealing His position and the relationship they continued to share. —I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. Jesus was fully obedient to the will of God.

I don't know about you, but I find great encouragement in these words. We all deal with sin in our lives. We know that sin causes separation. Apart from salvation that separation will endure for all eternity. But for the believer there is comfort in these words. We may allow sin to enter our lives and it may hinder our fellowship with the Lord, but it does not hinder our relationship. The saved have been made heirs of the promise, adopted into the family of God, never to be forsaken. If you are a child of God, you will always be a child of God! —All that the Father giveth me shall come to me; and him that cometh to me I will in no wise cast out.

Here we find a fundamental truth that cannot be overlooked or over-emphasized. Pilate and the Sanhedrin had cast their voice against Jesus. Sentence was declared and Jesus was crucified upon the cross. May I remind us that it was not Pilate or even the religious elite that forced Jesus to bear the cross! Jesus did not endure the suffering of the cross at the will of men. He suffered the torments and death of the cross because this was God's plan of redemption. Jesus died to provide our salvation!
Jesus bore the cross by His own power and He died according to His own power. This may have been a crucifixion, but it was not an execution. Jesus was not a man who endured circumstances that were beyond His control. He was not there upon the cross because He had no other choice. Things had not spiraled out of control resulting in His crucifixion and death. Jesus was not killed or murdered, He willingly gave His life. He chose the moment when He would yield up the ghost. Even in death, Jesus was in complete control. The cross stands as a testimony to His Power!

Wordy Study
The word commend in our text means "to place beside or near; to set beforeJesus placed His Spirit in the hands of the Father before He died. 4 times it expresses personal faith in “committing” (i.e., “setting before”) someone or something to God for safekeeping (; ; ; ).
—Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. 18 No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father. —Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost. Here the word yielded literally means "to send away; to yield up; to permit or allow." Jesus was not at the mercy of the cross and the death that it would bring. While He hung there, death was subject to His command and power!

III. His Provision
As Jesus commended His spirit to God, and yielded up the ghost, He provided for our redemption. This was the way it had to be. There were no other options, no other choices. Had Christ not carried the events of the cross all the way to death, we would have no salvation. We would yet be in our sins and without hope of eternal life. The cross is the central theme of the gospel. Jesus had to die so that we might live. -And almost all things are by the law purged with blood; and without shedding of blood is no remission.
It was there that He paid a debt that I owed but had no hope of ever paying. Apart from the cross I would remain condemned and accountable to God for my sins.

Ill. Rope of Hope
Ill. Rope of Hope
If you travel up I-395 through Washington, D.C., and cross over the Potomac, you will likely cross the Arland D. Williams, Jr. Memorial Bridge. Who was Arland D. Williams, Jr.? On January 13, 1982, he gave hope to five individuals at the cost of his own life. On that cold January day, Air Florida Flight 90 crashed into the icy Potomac. Ice on the wings prevented the plane from a successful takeoff. Almost all of the passengers perished. Five different times, a helicopter dropped a rope to save Williams. Five times, Williams passed the rope to other passengers in worse shape than he was. When the rope was extended to Williams the sixth time, he could not take hold and succumbed to the frigid waters. His heroism was not rash. Aware that his own strength was fading, he deliberately handed hope to someone else over the space of several minutes. Jesus did not make a rash decision to give his life for ours. That Jesus would be an atoning sacrifice for us was his destiny from eternity past. That’s what Jesus did for us gave us the Rope of Hope.
■W e live in a day when many want to remove the cross. They don't want to sing about the precious blood that was shed. They don't want preachers preaching about the suffering and death of our Lord upon the cross. It is viewed as a "slaughter house" or a “Bloody” religion. If Christ had not died upon the cross, mankind would remain in sin, apart from God, and eternally condemned. Thank God for the cross. Praise the Lord that He was willing to endure the cross. I say sing me a song about Jesus and the blood that He shed. Preach to me about the Cross of Calvary. That is where our debt was paid.
■ —For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.

III. The Provision
IV. His Prayer —And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost. In this final prayer to God the Father much is revealed about God the Son. As our Savior and Lord we are to imitate the life He lived. We will never obtain His holiness in this life, but we must strive to be more like Jesus every day. Let's consider what is revealed in this prayer.
A. Jesus Died Praying to God—In the final moments prior to His death, Jesus spent them in prayer to God. He used those final precious moments as an opportunity to talk and commune with the Father. He lived in prayer and died in prayer. I started out right and I want to finish right!
■You would have to agree that we need to be more diligent in our praying. Often we wait until a difficulty arises before we pray. We need to pray every day. In fact, we need to be in an attitude of prayer always! Pray without ceasing.
B. Jesus Died Trusting God—Jesus died committing His spirit to God. He had endured the cross, even being forsaken for a time, but His prayer revealed that His confidence and trust in God the Father had not wavered.
■What a powerful lesson for us to learn. God is good and He is good all the time. God is sovereign and in control of every aspect of our lives. We must trust Him in the valley the same as we do on the mountain. Our circumstances may change, but our God doesn't! -Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.
C. Jesus Died Submitted to God—He never once refused to submit to the will of God. Jesus knew that He must die so that sinners might live and He submitted to that. He was not concerned with His desire, but that of God the Father. That is not to say that Jesus somehow was less than God on the cross, but we know that His humanity dreaded the suffering.
■If Jesus was willing to submit to suffering and death, bearing our sins in His body, surely we can submit to live for the Lord and serve Him. Is it too much to ask to live for Jesus after all He has done for us and continues to do?
D. Jesus Died Honoring God—He fully submitted to God's will. There was not one area that was left undone or one instance of disobedience. As Jesus died on the cross, He did so honoring the Father.
■Doesn't that challenge you today? Don't you want to live a life that honors God so that you can honor Him at death? If we are to die right, we must live right. The only way to have parting words of peace is to be at peace with God. I can assure you that you can have that peace if you make the Lord your priority in life.
We all have a determined time to die. —And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: Jesus has already endured death so that we don't have to face the second death. Do you know Him today? Was there a moment in your life that you trusted Him in salvation?
Christian are you living right so that you may die right? Are you living a life that honors the Lord? Surely He deserves our submission and commitment. If there is a need, why not come today and get it settled?

In the words of that great hymn, "Jesus Paid It All."
I hear the savior say, thy strength indeed is small
Child of weakness, watch and pray, find in me thine all in all
In the words of that great hymn, "Jesus Paid It All."
I hear the savior say, thy strength indeed is small
Child of weakness, watch and pray, find in me thine all in all
'Cause Jesus paid it all
All to him I owe
Sin had left a crimson stain, he washed it white as snow
'Cause Jesus paid it all
All to him I owe
Sin had left a crimson stain, he washed it white as snow
Lord, now indeed I find thy power and thine alone
Can change the leper's spots and melt the heart of stone
Lord, now indeed I find thy power and thine alone
Can change the leper's spots and melt the heart of stone
'Cause Jesus paid it all
All to him I owe
My sin had left this crimson stain, he washed it white as snow
'Cause Jesus paid it all
All to him I owe
My sin had left this crimson stain, he washed it white as snow
It's washed away, all my sin
And all my shame
It's washed away, all my sin
And all my shame
And when before the throne I stand in him complete
"Jesus died my soul to save" my lips shall still repeat
And when before the throne I stand in him complete
"Jesus died my soul to save" my lips shall still repeat
Jesus paid it all
All to him I owe
(Sin had left a crimson stain, he washed it white as snow)
(He washed it white as snow)
Jesus paid it all
All to him I owe
