“The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,”
Luke 4:18 KJV
Jesus at the start gave His manifesto and then implemented it. The anointing on Him made Him the good news to preach the Gospel to the poor; to heal the broken-hearted; to preach deliverance to the captives; to recover the sight of the blind; to set at liberty them that are bruised. This same anointing is on us, the Church. Are we bearers of good news; do we bring healing to the broken hearted, deliverance to the captives, sight to the blind, liberty and freedom to those in bondage? Jesus has given us the power of His Name, the power of His Word, the power of His Blood and the victory of the Cross, the power of His Holy Spirit....Jesus has given the Church, us His disciples, everything we need to fulfill His manifesto in this dying and perishing world. Let’s fulfill His manifesto...the world needs it, there are suicides, depression, hopelessness, despair, sickness, disease, lack, poverty, shame, everywhere we look around. Let’s be the Church Jesus wants us to be. Let’s be good news to everyone we meet, foe or friend!
