To preach

And turning His gaze toward His disciples, He began to say, “Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God.

And He answered and said to them, “Go and report to John what you have seen and heard: the blind receive sight, the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed, and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, the poor have the gospel preached to them.

The afflicted also will increase their gladness in the Lord,
And the needy of mankind will rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.

“But I will leave among you
A humble and lowly people,
And they will take refuge in the name of the Lord.

So it was broken on that day, and thus the afflicted of the flock who were watching me realized that it was the word of the Lord.

“

Blessed are the poor in spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

gospel preached to them.

Listen, my beloved brethren: did not God choose the poor of this world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom which He promised to those who love Him?

To heal

Because your heart was tender and you humbled yourself before God when you heard His words against this place and against its inhabitants, and because you humbled yourself before Me, tore your clothes and wept before Me, I truly have heard you,” declares the Lord.

The Lord

is near to the brokenhearted

And saves those who are

crushed in spirit.

The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit;
A broken and a contrite heart, O God, You will not despise.

He heals the brokenhearted
And binds up their wounds.

For thus says the high and exalted One
Who

lives forever, whose name is Holy,

“I dwell on a high and holy place,
And also with the contrite and lowly of spirit
In order to revive the spirit of the lowly
And to revive the heart of the contrite.

“For My hand made all these things,
Thus all these things came into being,” declares the Lord.
“But to this one I will look,
To him who is humble and contrite of spirit, and who trembles at My word.

The Lord said to him, “Go through the midst of the city, even through the midst of Jerusalem, and put a mark on the foreheads of the men who sigh and groan over all the abominations which are being committed in its midst.”

To preach deliverance

To hear the groaning of the prisoner,
To set free those who were doomed to death,

There were those who dwelt in darkness and in the shadow of death,

Prisoners in misery and chains,

Who executes justice for the oppressed;
Who gives food to the hungry.
The Lord

sets the prisoners free.

To open blind eyes,
To bring out prisoners from the dungeon
And those who dwell in darkness from the prison.

“I have aroused him in righteousness
And I will make all his ways smooth;
He will build My city and will let My exiles go free,
Without any payment or reward,” says the Lord of hosts.

Saying to those who are bound, ‘Go forth,’
To those who are in darkness, ‘Show yourselves.’
Along the roads they will feed,
And their pasture will be on all bare heights.

Shake yourself from the dust, rise up,
O captive Jerusalem;

Loose yourself from the chains around your neck,

O captive daughter of Zion.

As for you also, because of the blood of My covenant with you,
I have set your prisoners free from the waterless pit.

For He rescued us from the

domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of

His beloved Son,

And

The Lord

opens the eyes of the blind;

The Lord

raises up those who are bowed down;

The Lord

loves the righteous;

On that day the deaf will hear words of a book,
And out of their gloom and darkness the eyes of the blind will see.

Then the eyes of those who see will not be blinded,
And the ears of those who hear will listen.

Then the eyes of the blind will be opened
And the ears of the deaf will be unstopped.

“I will lead the blind by a way they do not know,
In paths they do not know I will guide them.
I will make darkness into light before them
And rugged places into plains.
These are the things I will do,
And I will not leave them undone.”

“Arise, shine; for your light has come,
And the glory of the Lord has risen upon you.

“But for you who fear My name, the sun of righteousness will rise with healing in its wings; and you will go forth and skip about like calves from the stall.

“The people who were sitting in darkness saw a great Light,
And those who were sitting in the land and shadow of death,
Upon them a Light dawned.”

As Jesus went on from there, two blind men followed Him, crying out, “Have mercy on us, Son of David!”

the blind receive sight and the lame walk, the lepers are cleansed and the deaf hear, the dead are raised up, and the poor have the

gospel preached to them.

And Jesus said, “For judgment I came into this world, so that those who do not see may see, and that those who see may become blind.”

I have come as Light into the world, so that everyone who believes in Me will not remain in darkness.

to open their eyes so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the dominion of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who have been sanctified by faith in Me.’

for you were formerly darkness, but now you are Light in the Lord; walk as children of Light

for you are all sons of light and sons of day. We are not of night nor of darkness;

But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a

holy nation, a people for God’s own possession, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;

On the other hand, I am writing a new commandment to you, which is true in Him and in you, because the darkness is passing away and the true Light is already shining.

Bruised

And I will put enmity
Between you and the woman,
And between your seed and her seed;

He shall bruise you on the head,

And you shall bruise him on the heel.”

“A bruised reed He will not break
And a dimly burning wick He will not extinguish;
He will faithfully bring forth justice.

“A battered reed He will not break off,
And a smoldering wick He will not put out,
Until He

leads

justice to victory.
