Lk. 4:18-19 “THE SPIRIT OF THE LORD IS UPON ME (the Messiah), 
BECAUSE HE HAS ANOINTED ME TO PREACH THE GOOD NEWS TO THE POOR. 
HE HAS SENT ME TO ANNOUNCE RELEASE (pardon, forgiveness) TO THE CAPTIVES, 
AND RECOVERY OF SIGHT TO THE BLIND, 
TO SET FREE THOSE WHO ARE OPPRESSED (downtrodden, bruised, crushed by tragedy),
TO PROCLAIM THE FAVORABLE YEAR OF THE LORD [the day when salvation and the favor of God abound greatly].”
Jesus’ mission was to heal broken people and so it is also our mission as the church of Jesus Christ. JOIN ME AND LET’S TALK ABOUT IT!

1Jn. 4:18-21 There is no fear in love [dread does not exist]. But perfect (complete, full-grown) love drives out fear, because fear involves [the expectation of divine] punishment, so the one who is afraid [of God’s judgment] is not perfected in love [has not grown into a sufficient understanding of God’s love].
We love, because He first loved us.
If anyone says, “I love God,” and hates (works against) his [Christian] brother he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen.
And this commandment we have from Him, that the one who loves God should also [unselfishly] love his brother and seek the best for him.
2Tim. 1:7 For God did not give us a spirit of timidity or cowardice or fear, but [He has given us a spirit] of power and of love and of sound judgment and personal discipline [abilities that result in a calm, well-balanced mind and self-control].

Pr. 29:18 Where there is no vision, the people perish: but he that keepeth the law, happy is he.

Hab. 2:2-3 Then the LORD answered me and said, 
“Write the vision
And engrave it plainly on [clay] tablets
So that the one who reads it will run.
For the vision is yet for the appointed [future] time
It hurries toward the goal [of fulfillment]; it will not fail. 
Even though it delays, wait [patiently] for it, 
Because it will certainly come; it will not delay.
We either have a vision, adopt a vision or we bring division.

Pray without ceasing.
Jas.5:16-18 Confess your faults one to another, and pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.
Elias was a man subject to like passions as we are, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain: and it rained not on the earth by the space of three years and six months.
And he prayed again, and the heaven gave rain, and the earth brought forth her fruit.

Eph. 4:29 Do not let unwholesome [foul, profane, worthless, vulgar] words ever come out of your mouth, but only such speech as is good for building up others, according to the need and the occasion, so that it will be a blessing to those who hear [you speak].
Heb.10:24-25 and let us consider [thoughtfully] how we may encourage one another to love and to do good deeds,
not forsaking our meeting together [as believers for worship and instruction], as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another;  and all the more [faithfully] as you see the day [of Christ’s return] approaching.

Php.1:6 I am convinced and confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will [continue to] perfect and complete it until the day of Christ Jesus [the time of His return].
Eph.5:26-27 so that He might sanctify the church, having cleansed her by the washing of water with the word [of God],
so that [in turn] He might present the church to Himself in glorious splendor, without spot or wrinkle or any such thing; but that she would be holy [set apart for God] and blameless.
Eph. 4:13 until we all reach oneness in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God, [growing spiritually] to become a mature believer, reaching to the measure of the fullness of Christ [manifesting His spiritual completeness and exercising our spiritual gifts in unity].
