Prayer for Luke 4:18

“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 to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set free the oppressed,”

Praying through Luke 4:18

Heavenly Father, thank You that You sent the Lord Jesus to preach the good news to the poor, to proclaim freedom to captives and recovery of sight the blind. I confess that I am poor and needy. I too was captive to sin and Satan and was spiritually blind and dead in my trespasses and sin. Thank You that in Your grace You redeemed me from the pit, reached down and saved me from my captivity, and opened my eyes to the truth of Your Word. Thank You that by Christ's death and Resurrection, I am a new person and have His Spirit within – to lead, to guide, to protect, and to teach me in the way that I should go. May I keep My eyes fixed on Jesus, the Author and Finisher of my faith, in Whose name I pray, AMEN.

Praying through Luke 4:18

Heavenly Father, I stand amazed that You should love me so much that You sent the Lord Jesus to be my Saviour, to be wounded on my account, to die a cruel death on my behalf, and rise again on the third day so that by grace through faith in Him, I have been redeemed from the pit. He has healed me of my wounds, set me free from slavery to sin, given me a new life in Christ, and I have found my rest in Him. May I live My life in humble dependence upon You, day by day. In Jesus' name, AMEN.
