1 The Spirit of the Lord GOD is upon
me,
Because the LORD has anointed me
To bring good news to the afflicted;
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
To proclaim liberty to captives And freedom to prisoners;
2 To proclaim the favorable year of the LORD
And the day of vengeance of our God;
To comfort all who mourn,
3 To grant those who mourn in Zion,
Giving them a garland instead of ashes,
The oil of gladness instead of mourning,
The mantle of praise instead of a spirit of fainting.
So they will be called oaks of righteousness,
The planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified. – Isaiah 61:1-3

Are you a born again Christian? Then the Spirit of the Lord GOD is
upon you too with the same purposes. We are His ambassadors from Heaven to
this, His earthly kingdom. We, therefore, represent Him here to aid in bringing
others to Him. Awesome responsibility. Are you fulfilling it?
