Jesus On the Holy Spirit
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 freedom for the prisoners
and recovery of sight for the blind
to release the oppressed
to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favour
(Luke 4:18-19).
- Preach good news to the poor
- Proclaim freedom to prisoners
- Command healing for the blind
- Liberate the oppressed
- Proclaim the arrival of God’s redemption
