Jesus left us here on earth to build His Kingdom by using His Name as our authority. Just as He proclaimed that the Spirit of the Lord was on Him, He has said that we would do all things that He did and yes even greater things.
So Church don't you think it is time to stand up and take our place in Jesus and start, preach the Good News, to all people, set the captives free, heal the sick, and liberate the oppressed? We were set apart from the rest of the world to do the work Jesus left us to do so let's get busy!!!
17 The synagogue attendant gave Him the scroll of the prophet Isaiah, and Jesus unrolled it to the place where Isaiah had written these words:
18 The Spirit of the Lord the Eternal One is on Me.
Why? Because the Eternal designated Me
to be His representative to the poor, to preach good news to them.
He sent Me to tell those who are held captive that they can now be set free,
and to tell the blind that they can now see.
He sent Me to liberate those held down by oppression.
19 In short, the Spirit is upon Me to proclaim that now is the time;
this is the jubilee season of the Eternal One’s grace.
20 Jesus rolled up the scroll and returned it to the synagogue attendant. Then He sat down, as a teacher would do, and all in the synagogue focused their attention on Jesus, waiting for Him to speak.
21 He told them that these words from the Hebrew Scriptures were being fulfilled then and there, in their hearing.
