Done/Do
In Psalm 69 we have the suffering of Christ brought before us prophetically, beginning with that which denotes the atoning sufferings during the three hours of darkness, when He cried, “My God, my God, why hast Thou forsaken Me? why art Thou so far from helping Me, and from the words of My roaring?” (Verse 1).
Throughout the Psalm we have the feelings and expression of the Lord Jesus as He passed through various aspects of His suffering, both from man, and from God, when “He bare our sins in His own body on the tree” (1 Peter 2:24).At the end of the Psalm, lest there be any doubt in our minds as to who the inspired writer is referring to, he concludes by stating, “He hath done this” (Verse 31).
Yes, the work is DONE! Never to be repeated! But now there is something that He has asked us to DO in response — something that is ongoing. He says to us this morning, “This do in remembrance of Me” (Luke 22:19). This request to “DO” is repeated by the Apostle Paul when writing to the Corinthians (1 Corinthians 11:24-25). Will you respond to that request?
