Because



“The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me, BECAUSE

- He has anointed Me To preach the gospel to the poor
- He has sent Me to heal the broken-hearted
- 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 NKJV

The Power Of God At Work


“For I am not ashamed of this Good News about Christ. 
It is the power of God at work, 
saving everyone who believes
—the Jew first and also the Gentile. 
This Good News tells us how God 
makes us right in his sight. T
his is accomplished from start to finish by faith. 
As the Scriptures say, 
“It is through faith that a righteous person has life.”

Romans 1:16-17 NLT

I have experienced time and time again 
how this good news about Christ preached/read/heard 
saves, heals and delivers.

My eyes are taken off me and what I must perform, 
and set on Him and what He has done.


I go from worry to trust. 
A sense of worthlessness to knowing that I'm deeply loved. 
Depression to joy.  
Illness to health. 
Brokenness to wholeness.  
Hopelessness to positive expectation of good. 

Wow! The power of God at work!
