The Spirit of the Lord God is upon Me, Because the Lord has anointed Me To preach good tidings to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, To proclaim liberty to the captives, And the opening of the prison to those who are bound – Isaiah 61:1.
God has
anointed us to preach good tidings to the poor, to heal the brokenhearted, to
proclaim liberty to the captives and to release the prisoners from the darkness.
To preach good tidings to the poor
The great commission of our Lord for us
is to take gospel to every person. And He said to them, “Go into all the world
and preach the gospel to every creature - Mark 16:15. How beautiful upon the
mountains are the feet of him who brings good news, Who proclaims peace, Who
brings glad tidings of good things, Who proclaims salvation, Who says to Zion, “Your
God reigns!” - Isaiah 52:7.
To heal the brokenhearted
God is our Healer. The Lord is close to the
brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit - Psalm 34:18. He heals
the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds - Psalm 147:3. Many people are brokenhearted
due to many problems. Let us tell them about our Lord who heals the brokenhearted.
To proclaim liberty to the captives
We have freedom in Christ. We are called to
liberty. Many people are captives to emotions, addictions, sins and much more. Let
us use our freedom as an opportunity to serve others with love. For you,
brethren, have been called to liberty; only do not use liberty as an opportunity
for the flesh, but through love serve one another - Galatians 5:16.
To open the prison of those who were bound
Many minds of people are
blinded by Satan so that they cannot see the light of the gospel. The god of
this age has blinded the minds of unbelievers, so that they cannot see the
light of the gospel that displays the glory of Christ, who is the image of God -
1 Corinthians 4:4. God has anointed us to open the eyes of spiritually blinded
people. A light to bring revelation to the Gentiles, And the glory of Your
people Israel - Luke 2:32.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, Help us to preach good tidings to the poor, to
heal the broken hearted, to proclaim the liberty to the captives and to release
the prisoners from the darkness. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
