Unrolling the scroll he found the place where it is written:
The spirit of the Lord has been given to me,
for he has anointed me.
He has sent me to bring the good news to the poor,
to proclaim liberty to captives
and to the blind new sight,
to set the downtrodden free,
to proclaim the Lord’s year of favour.Lk.4:17-19
Jesus reads from the prophet Isaiah to outline his gameplan. As a follower, it's my gameplan as well. I am anointed to bring good news, liberty, sight, freedom and proclamation.
Good news folks! In the name of Jesus you are free, you can see clearly, your shackles are broken, you are lifted up and you are alive under the blessing and favour of God almighty.
Now, who wants to cancel me, dismiss me, throw me over a cliff? The good news is good news and it can't be stopped.
Come Holy Spirit. Fill the hearts of your faithful. Kindle in them the fire of your love. Send forth your Spirit and they shall be created and you shall renew the face of the earth.
