\nFor some reason today has been especially hard for me\u2026
\nI\u2019ve cried off and, on, all day, some days are like that\u2026
\nA cleansing I\u2019m guessing\u2026something coming to an end, or, a new beginning
\nA time of lamenting and soul searching\u2026
\nThere are so many hurting people\u2026God sees\u2026 and He knows each heartache\u2026<\/h6>\n
\nHe says\u2026<\/strong>
\nAnnounce Freedom to All Captives<\/h6>\n
The Spirit of God, the Master, is on me because God anointed me. He sent me to preach good news to the poor, heal the heartbroken, announce freedom to all captives, pardon all prisoners.
\nGod sent me to announce the year of his grace\u2014
\na celebration of God\u2019s destruction of our enemies\u2014
\nand to comfort all who mourn, to care for the needs of all who mourn in Zion, give them bouquets of roses instead of ashes, messages of joy instead of news of doom, a praising heart instead of a languid spirit. Rename them \u201cOaks of Righteousness\u201d planted by God to display his glory. They\u2019ll rebuild the old ruins, raise a new city out of the wreckage. They\u2019ll start over on the ruined cities, take the rubble left behind and make it new. You\u2019ll hire outsiders to herd your flocks and foreigners to work your fields, but you\u2019ll have the title \u201cPriests of God,\u201d honored as ministers of our God. You\u2019ll feast on the bounty of nations; you\u2019ll bask in their glory.
\nBecause you got a double dose of trouble and more than your share of contempt,
\nYour inheritance in the land will be doubled and your joy go on forever.
\nIsaiah 61:1-7 The Message (MSG)<\/strong><\/h6>\n
He says,<\/strong>
\nGOD\u2019s the one who rebuilds Jerusalem, who regathers Israel\u2019s scattered exiles. He heals the heartbroken and bandages their wounds. He counts the stars and assigns each a name. Our Lord is great, with limitless strength; we\u2019ll never comprehend what he knows and does. GOD puts the fallen on their feet again and pushes the wicked into the ditch.
\nPsalm 147:3-6 The Message (MSG)<\/strong><\/h6>\n
Do not be cast down O my soul\u2026<\/strong>
\nTrust in the Lord completely, and do not rely on your own opinions. With all your heart rely on him to guide you, and he will lead you in every decision you make. Become intimate with him in whatever you do, and he will lead you wherever you go.[a]
\nProverbs 3:5-6 The Passion Translation (TPT)<\/strong><\/h6>\n
\nFootnotes: Proverbs 3:6 Or \u201cHe will cut a straight path before you.\u201d<\/h6>\n
