The Spirit of the Lord Is Upon Me

Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 136
Book Description
Yes! The Spirit of the Lord is upon me! He has anointed me to preach the Gospel to the poor, the afflicted, and to help mend the broken hearts that are everywhere. Yes! The Spirit of the Lord is upon me to comfort all those who mourn, to give them a mantle of praise instead of a spirit of fainting, and to tell the captives they are free! There is no condemnation when the Son has set them free! Yes! Whom the Son sets free is free indeed. Jesus spoke from the book of Isaiah in his Fathers temple that the Spirit of the Lord was upon Him. He read out loud to the Jewish people from the book of Isaiah 61:1. But when he got to the next verse, he only read a part of it. He stopped at to proclaim the favorable year of the Lord. He closed the book and handed it back to the attendant. Then he looked straight into the peoples faces and told them that they were looking at the scripture being fulfilled right before their very eyes. If he had read the rest of the verse, he would have read and the day of vengeance of our God. However, he did try to soften the blow by merely reading a part of that verse. But that didnt work either. They sat there gazing at him and saying, Is this not Josephs boy?

Future Grace, Revised Edition
Author: John Piper
Publisher: Multnomah
ISBN: 1601424353
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 450
Book Description
Explore this stunning quality of God’s grace: It never ends! In this revision of a foundational work, John Piper reveals how grace is not only God’s undeserved gift to us in the past, but also God’s power to make good happen for us today, tomorrow, and forever. True life for the follower of Jesus really is a moment-by-moment trust that God is dependable and fulfills his promises. This is living by faith in future grace, which provides God's mercy, provision, and wisdom—everything we need—to accomplish his good plans for us. In Future Grace, chapter by chapter—one for each day of the month—Piper reveals how cherishing the promises of God helps break the power of persistent sin issues like anxiety, despondency, greed, lust, bitterness, impatience, pride, misplaced shame, and more. Ultimate joy, peace, and hope in life and death are found in a confident, continual awareness of the reality of future grace.
