Freedom

Anointed to Proclaim Freedom

The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;

Isaiah 61:1

· · ·

The Messiah's mission centers on bringing freedom to every form of captivity.

Jesus quoted this verse at the beginning of His ministry, revealing His purpose: to liberate the oppressed, heal the brokenhearted, and free prisoners. This prophecy encompasses spiritual, emotional, and physical freedom. Christ came to reverse every effect of the fall.

Ask God to show you someone who needs to hear about the freedom available in Christ, and share your testimony with them.

Lord Jesus, thank You for Your mission of freedom. Use me to proclaim liberty to those who are captive and healing to the brokenhearted. Amen.
