YOU ARE ANOINTED
The literal understanding of the verses above is, Christ is God's servant who will bring to reality the longing and the hope of the poor, the oppressed and the imprisoned. If we look at V.21 of this chapter Jesus said, ”Today this scripture has been fulfilled in your hearing.” Those changes of the poor and the wronged and for the oppressed will happen today. This means the time of God is today. According to Luke and Acts, today is never allowed to become ”yesterday” or ”someday.” This is a great message for all of us that the broken hearted, the oppressed and the poor need us today and we need to reach out to those people who are suffering today.
Dear God,
Help us this day to reach out to the broken hearted, the weak, to those who wait and weep longing to see rule of justice and the reign of peace. Help us bring them the good news of hope and joy.
- Amen
Have a heart that never hardens, and a temper that never tires, and a touch that never hurts.

About this Plan
My inspiration for this 30 days Devotional is from prolonged theological discourses on Justice. My burning desire is to see that the Church becomes catalyst to stop violence against the poor. I am also grateful to Organizations who work relentlessly to secure Justice for the poor.
