If you have ever felt like Heaven was silent, you’re not alone. Even Jesus Himself cried out, “My God, My God, why have You forsaken Me?” But here's what we’ll learn this Good Friday as we reflect on Jesus Christ’s ultimate sacrifice: it’s often in the silence that God is doing His greatest work.
 
Notes:

Focus verse: Matthew 27:45–54 (NLT)
 
#1 The Cry Met With Silence
 
#2 The Plan Behind the Silence
Isaiah 53:5–7 (NLT)
 
The silence from Heaven wasn’t indifference.
The silence from the cross wasn’t weakness.
It was fulfillment.
 
#3 The Purpose of the Silence
John 19:28–30 (NLT)
