Proclaim Good News

The scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Unrolling it, he found the place where it is written:

“The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.” — Luke 4: 17-19

Isaiah wrote long ago that the Spirit of the Lord would be on Jesus.

God's Son was sent to proclaim good news to the poor and the poor in heart.

To proclaim freedom of the prisoners and for those of us living in darkness.

To give sight to the blind.

To proclaim the year of the Lord God's favor.

We know that God will guide us through the new year.
