COMPLETELY!

Colossians 2:9-10 NLT

For in Christ lives all the fullness of God in a human body. 10 So you also

are complete through your union with Christ, who is the head over every

ruler and authority.

1 Peter 5:10 AMP

After you have suffered for a little while, the God of all grace [who imparts

His blessing and favor], who called you to His own eternal glory in Christ,

will Himself complete, confirm, strengthen, and establish you [making you

what you ought to be].

John 8:36 NLT

36 So if the Son sets you free, you are truly free.

Luke 7:11-16 NLT

Soon afterward Jesus went with his disciples to the village of Nain, and a

large crowd followed him. 12 A funeral procession was coming out as he

approached the village gate. The young man who had died was a widow’s

only son, and a large crowd from the village was with her. 13 When the

Lord saw her, his heart overflowed with compassion. “Don’t cry!” he said.

14 Then he walked over to the coffin and touched it, and the bearers

stopped. “Young man,” he said, “I tell you, get up.” 15 Then the dead boy

sat up and began to talk! And Jesus gave him back to his mother.

16 Great fear swept the crowd, and they praised God, saying, “A mighty

prophet has risen among us,” and “God has visited his people today.”

1. COMPLETE RESTORATION

Luke 7:13 NLT

13 When the Lord saw her, his heart overflowed with compassion. “Don’t

cry!” he said.

Psalms 23:3-4 NIV

He refreshes my soul.

He guides me along the right paths

for his name’s sake.

Even though I walk

through the darkest valley,

I will fear no evil,

for you are with me;

your rod and your staff,

they comfort me.

Isaiah 26:3 NIV

You will keep in perfect peace

those whose minds are steadfast,

because they trust in you.

John 15:11 AMP

I have told you these things so that My joy and delight may be in you, and

that your joy may be made full and complete and overflowing.

Isaiah 61:3 NLT

To all who mourn in Israel,

he will give a crown of beauty for ashes,

a joyous blessing instead of mourning,

festive praise instead of despair.

In their righteousness, they will be like great oaks

that the LORD has planted for his own glory.

2. COMPLETE RESURRECTION

Luke 7:14-15 NLT

Then he walked over to the coffin and touched it, and the bearers stopped.

“Young man,” he said, “I tell you, get up.” 15 Then the dead boy sat up and

began to talk! And Jesus gave him back to his mother.

1 Corinthians 15:51-58 MSG

51-57 But let me tell you something wonderful, a mystery I’ll probably never fully

understand. We’re not all going to die—but we are all going to be changed. You hear a

blast to end all blasts from a trumpet, and in the time that you look up and blink your

eyes—it’s over. On signal from that trumpet from heaven, the dead will be up and out of

their graves, beyond the reach of death, never to die again. At the same moment and in

the same way, we’ll all be changed. In the resurrection scheme of things, this has to

happen: everything perishable taken off the shelves and replaced by the imperishable,

this mortal replaced by the immortal. Then the saying will come true:

Death swallowed by triumphant Life!

Who got the last word, oh, Death?

Oh, Death, who’s afraid of you now?

It was sin that made death so frightening and law-code guilt that gave sin its leverage,

its destructive power. But now in a single victorious stroke of Life, all three—sin, guilt,

death—are gone, the gift of our Master, Jesus Christ. Thank God!

58 With all this going for us, my dear, dear friends, stand your ground. And don’t hold

back. Throw yourselves into the work of the Master, confident that nothing you do for

him is a waste of time or effort.

John 8:36 NLT

36 So if the Son sets you free, you are truly free.

3. COMPLETE RESTITUTION

Joel 2:25 NKJV

“So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten,

The crawling locust,

The consuming locust,

And the chewing locust,

My great army which I sent among you.

Job 42:12 NLT

12 So the LORD blessed Job in the second half of his life even more than in

the beginning. For now he had 14,000 sheep, 6,000 camels, 1,000 teams

of oxen, and 1,000 female donkeys.

Philippians 1:6 NIV

6 being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it

on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus.
