"Hello Everyone in the name of Jesus Christ Our Lord "
I hope, that all of you had a very wonderful Christmas, and that each day will be Christmas in your life, because of the reason we celebrate the season, the Birth of Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior. The name, which is above every name, and which everyone, will confess before the Father, that Jesus Christ is the Son of God"
"So He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up. And as His custom was, He went into the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read. And He was handed the book of the prophet Isaiah. And when he had opened the book, He found the place where it was written:
"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me,
Because He anointed Me
To preach the gospel to the poor;
He has send me to heal the brokenhearted,
To proclaim liberty to the captives
And recovery of sight to the blind,
To set at liberty those who are oppressed;
To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord."
Luke 4:18-19
Jesus, which was as his custom, was at the synagogue on the Sabbath. He was handed the book of Isaiah, and as He opened the book, He went to Isiah 61 and read verses 1 and 2.
Jesus, by citing these verses was claiming to be a royal figure, and to have a prophetic mission. Jesus healed the brokenhearted, Jesus proclaimed liberty to the captives, Jesus gave sight to the blind and Jesus set at liberty the oppressed.
Jesus proclaimed the acceptable year of the Lord is now and offers a total cancellation of spiritual debt and a new beginning to those who come to him asking Him to forgive them of there sins. Jesus said that He is the WAY, the TRUTH and the LIFE and NO ONE comes to the FATHER but THROUGH HIM.
It is interesting to note that Jesus closed the book in the middle of the sentence of Isiah 61:2 because the next portion of that scripture said "the day of vengeance of our God" was not being fulfilled then.
Jesus said in verse 18: "He has sent me to heal the brokenhearted" We as humans may have said something or done something that was hurtful to someones heart. Perhaps is was a spouse, a family member, a co-worker or perhaps a friend. Sometimes the hurt doesn't heal quickly. There might be times when you recover and times when that hurt will never go away. In every situation if you turn to Christ you will find that "He heals the Brokenhearted." We as Christians need to take your hurts to the Lord and forgive the one who may have hurt us.
Heavenly Father, Thank you for your son Jesus who can heal our broken hearts and set our minds free from the hurt that is within our hearts. Thank you for setting us free from the oppression of sin.
Amen
Led by the light of faith serenely beaming
With glowing hearts by His candle stand
O'er the world a star is sweetly gleaming
Now come the wise men from out of the Orient land
The King of Kings lay thus lowly manger
In all our trails born to be our friend
He knows our need, our weakness is no stranger
Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend
Behold your King! Before Him lowly bend
"He heals the brokenhearted, and binds up there wounds"
Psalm 147:3
Have a God Filled and Spirit Led Day
Yours In Christ
