Luke 4:18–19

Scripture Reading: Luke 4:18-19


Scripture is God breathed and true. When we memorize it, we carry the good news of Jesus with us wherever we go.Over the course of this reading plan, we will memorize Luke 4:18–19, a passage from the prophet Isaiah that Jesus quoted while teaching in the synagogue. This week we will memorize the first portion of verse 18.


18 “The Spirit of the Lord is on me,

because he has anointed me

to preach good news to the poor.

He has sent me

to proclaim release to the captives

and recovery of sight to the blind,

to set free the oppressed,

19 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”

—Luke 4:18–19

    The spirit of the Lord is on us, because he has anointed us. He didn’t just put his spirit on us for nothing. He put his spirit on us to preach his word in his name to all people

    Praise the Lord, that word for word scripture was fulfilled from Isaiah to Luke. He did what He said and as followers of Jesus we are called to keep preaching the Good News. May we be committed to be equipped to share the hope of Jesus, to be bold and courageous in our words, to be humbly faithful in our example and point others to the saving grace of Him.

    A very Happy Thanksgiving from Canada. I am so thankful for all those that are part of this SRT community. Have a blessed Sunday.

    “The Spirit of the Lord is on me,

    to preach good news to the poor.
    .
    Yhis verse was carried 700 years.. nothing changing, not a word removed.
    As true in Isaiahs day as in Jesus’s ministry and even today.
    .
    We all if we profess to be in Christ, have the Spirit in/on us, and we can preach/tell of the good news, through our actions and words to the poor in Spirit… those in need to hear the Word of God.. to experience His love and grace, hope and mercy and fsithfulness.Those who need to know what He has done for us, from His birth death and resurrection, and how we are saved by grace, receive new mercies each day, and are loved beyond measure, even in our sinful nature or navigate life in a way thst is not of the Lord..
    .
    BUT GOD..
    .
    And only God..
    .
    Praise you God that Your Spirit is within me, and I pray I can be an instrument of your love and grace to others leading them to You, in Jesus’s name I pray..
    .
    AMEN.
    .
    .
    Happy Sunday dear hearts covered in prayers and hugs and love..❤️

      And I love how you referenced that- about 700 years had gone by…YET..they KNEW the words of the Lord, they still practiced..(the faithful) and God ALWAYS fulfills his promises!!
      He STILL promises to be faithful to His chosen people Israel AND us gentiles grafted in–Hallelujah!!! He will come back one day as he promises!! He will call his people home to come back with WITH him!! Praise God!

    Strange things are afoot with this plan and how it is so glitchy on the website…praying the IT team gains insight. I accessed the Grace Day from the SRT homepage and left a comment yesterday but if anyone else did too, we won’t know until it is loaded in the listing for the whole plan. :-(
    .
    So thankful that God sent Jesus to “proclaim release to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set free the oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”
    .
    May we give Him praise for all He has done and will do as we gather at our local church today!

    It was a Grace (ful) Leap Day for SRT!
    And that’s the Sunday Weekly Truth!
    Saturday Day 6 may have vanished.
    But the Holy Spirit is never vanquished.
    The Long Awaited One is here.
    The Father’s work is now made clear.
    To my dear Shes, Beautiful Blessings!
    Come Monday Day 8, back to the lessons!
