is to be and do the Fingerprints of Jesus:
Jesus declared his fingerprints (his unique “DNA”) when he said: “The Spirit of the LORD is upon Me, Because He has anointed Me…
- To preach the gospel to the poor;
- He has sent Me to heal the broken-hearted,
- To proclaim liberty to the captives,
- To set at liberty those who are oppressed
- Recovery of sight to the blind,
- To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD.”
Apostles are sent to announce the Favour of God
Prophets speak so that blind eyes are opened and God is glimpsed
Evangelists bring Good News for the poor and poor in spirit
Pastors heal broken-hearted people
Teachers release the godly dreams that are locked up in people’s hearts
Psalm 23; 3 says, “He restores my soul.” Psalm 104; 15 speaks of how our whole lives are restored by Bread, Wine and Oil.
To be and do the fingerprints of Jesus, our souls need to be continually restored by:
Bread to sustain our strength:
The Word of God
Wine to gladden our hearts:
The Joy of Community
Oil to make our faces shine:
The Presence of the Holy Spirit
