COMMISSIONED FOR GREATNESS

COMMISSIONED FOR GREATNESS Luke 4:14-21 - Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and news about him spread through the whole countryside. He was teaching in their synagogues, and everyone praised him.

COMMISSIONED FOR GREATNESS Luke 4:14-21 - He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. He stood up to read, and the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Unrolling it, he found the place where it is written:

COMMISSIONED FOR GREATNESS Luke 4:14-21 - “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”

COMMISSIONED FOR GREATNESS Luke 4:14-21 - Then he rolled up the scroll, gave it back to the attendant and sat down. The eyes of everyone in the synagogue were fastened on him. He began by saying to them, “Today this scripture is fulfilled in your hearing.”

COMMISSIONED FOR GREATNESS “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”

COMMISSIONED FOR GREATNESS Jesus – “Saviour” Christ – “Anointed One” Christian – “Anointling” Holy Spirit Minions

COMMISSIONED FOR GREATNESS The anointing of God, his presence in your life, always empowers you with a greater desire for the calling on your life.

COMMISSIONED FOR GREATNESS We don’t get our significance from what the world thinks, or even what the church thinks! We get our significance from what God thinks.

COMMISSIONED FOR GREATNESS Luke 4:28-30 All the people in the synagogue were furious when they heard this. They got up, drove him out of the town, and took him to the brow of the hill on which the town was built, in order to throw him off the cliff. But he walked right through the crowd and went on his way.

COMMISSIONED FOR GREATNESS You only get your calling from God. The church community does not exist to hear from God FOR you, the church exists to confirm what you’re already hearing from God.

COMMISSIONED FOR GREATNESS The Spirit of the Lord is on ME, because he has anointed ME to preach good news to the poor. He has sent ME to proclaim freedom for the prisoners. He has enabled ME to give sight for the blind, He has chosen ME to set the oppressed free, He has released ME to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.
