When Jesus walked into the synagogue and read this scripture it was the beginning of the end for His life on this planet:

Isaiah 61 1 The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is on me, because the LORD has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners,

And so, in Luke 4:21, He shut the scroll and declared that HE, yes HE, was the very messiah.

Such a powerful testimony that He is our Savior.

And yet, He wasn’t just talking to THEM.  He is also talking to US!  He is the sovereign Lord for us!  In 2025 … we need to recognize and invite this.  THIS is what we need more than anything else.  We need Him to come and bind up the brokenhearted and fulfill every single thing that He is destined to do.

Think about what He wants!  It is mind boggling when you think about it.

He wants you to be a mighty warrior.

Judges 6 12 When the angel of the Lord appeared to Gideon, he said, “The Lord is with you, mighty warrior.”

He wants to rewrite your story.

Hebrews 12 20 Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the Author, and Perfecter of our Faith.

He wants you to have healthy thinking.

Proverbs 23 7 For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he

He wants you to WALK OUT your faith.

James 2 14 What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? … 17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.

He wants you to have a faith that can move mountains.

Mark 11 23 “Truly I tell you, if anyone says to this mountain, ‘Go, throw yourself into the sea,’

I am not sure what I think of all of this.  But I am in awe of the guy who willingly gave His life 2000 years ago … AND His word … AND this Holy Spirit that is putting tears in my eyes this morning … AND I am also in awe of this God, this Father, who watches from on high and loves me so much even though I don’t deserve it!

I think this Elevation Worship song sums it up, doesn’t it?

Lord Jesus, (as the lyrics say) “GIVE ME FAITH, to trust what YOU SAY, that YOU ARE GOOD, and YOUR LOVE IS GREAT”.

Jesus, Holy Spirit, Father God, I beg you:

Give Me Faith

In The Name of the Father and the 

Son and the Holy Spirit.  Amen.
