It is Enough

Study of the Bible, God’s Word, is interesting and fun. Such as looking for phrases such as this one, “It Is Enough”.
When Jacob (Israel) discovers his favorite son (Joseph) is alive:
Genesis 45:28 And Israel said, It is enough; Joseph my son is yet alive: I will go and see him before I die.
When Pharaoh had been experiencing the plagues, he said to Moses:
Exodus 9:28 Intreat the LORD (for it is enough) that there be no more mighty thunderings and hail; and I will let you go, and ye shall stay no longer.
God stayed the angel from destroying Jerusalem
2 Samuel 24:16 And when the angel stretched out his hand upon Jerusalem to destroy it, the LORD repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed the people, It is enough: stay now thine hand. And the angel of the LORD was by the threshing place of Araunah the Jebusite.
1 Chronicles 21:15 And God sent an angel unto Jerusalem to destroy it: and as he was destroying, the LORD beheld, and he repented him of the evil, and said to the angel that destroyed, It is enough, stay now thine hand. And the angel of the LORD stood by the threshing floor of Ornan the Jebusite.
Elijah fleeing from Queen Jezebel:
1 Kings 19:4 But he himself went a day’s journey into the wilderness, and came and sat down under a juniper tree: and he requested for himself that he might die; and said, It is enough; now, O LORD, take away my life; for I am not better than my fathers.
The horseleach has two daughters, always crying, “Give, Give.” These “daughters” are things that resemble the leech in never being satisfied. The writer then lists not just two but three and even four insatiable things with voracious appetites:
Proverbs 30:15-16 The horseleach hath two daughters, crying, Give, give. There are three things that are never satisfied, yea, four things say not, It is enough: The grave; and the barren womb; the earth that is not filled with water; and the fire that saith not, It is enough.
The Lord Jesus is in structing the 12 as he sends them out:
Matthew 10:25 It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master, and the servant as his lord. If they have called the master of the house Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them of his household?
As the Lord Jesus was about to be betrayed:
Mark 14:41 And he cometh the third time, and saith unto them, Sleep on now, and take your rest: it is enough, the hour is come; behold, the Son of man is betrayed into the hands of sinners.
During His final instruction to His disciples:
Luke 22:38 And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough.

It is enough that the Lord Jesus died on the cross for our sins and salvation!
