Pensamientos sobre el Verso de Hoy
Jesús leyó este pasaje en la sinagoga en Nazaret para describir su ministerio (vea Lucas 4). Vino a predicar la buena nueva, para sanar, traer salvación, ofrecer libertad, proclamar la gracia y ofrecer consuelo. Si Jesús nos ha mandado al mundo de la misma manera que su Padre lo mandó) Juan 20:21-23) ¿no debemos hacer lo mismo?
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Jesus read this passage at a synagogue in Nazareth to define his ministry (Luke 4:14-19). He came to preach good news for the poor, to bind up the broken, to announce freedom for those who were captives, to bring deliverance from the powers of darkness to the prisoners of addiction and evil, to proclaim grace because of God's favor, and to offer comfort to those grieving. Jesus also made clear God had a sharp edge to his justice, settling the score with those who were exploiters and abusers of the powerless. Since Jesus has sent us into the world as the Father sent our Savior (John 20:21-23), shouldn't our mission be to do something similar to what our Lord did?
Mi oración
Por el poder y sabiduría de tu Espíritu, quien anhela obrar poderosamente en mí, te pido que abras mis ojos, Amando Señor, ayudándome a ver a quienes tú has puesto en mi camino para que yo comparta tu gracia, salvación y consuelo. En el nombre de Jesús, lo pido, Amén.
My Prayer...
Through the power and wisdom of your Holy Spirit, who longs to work powerfully in and through us, please open my eyes, dear Lord. Help us see those you put in our paths with whom you want us to share your grace, deliverance, and comfort. Use us to speak up for those who are exploited, mistreated, and abused. In Jesus' name, we ask for your power and strength to bring redemption and hope to the lost around us. Amen.
