Fear God v. Fear Man :: Proverbs 3
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own
understanding, in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your path straight”
Last Sunday we started our journey of “Seeking the Ancient Paths”,
studying the book of Proverbs. This Sunday we will look at Chapter 3
and learn how to trust in the Lord, in every “way” of our life. If you
weren’t here last week, watch the teaching here and start reading the
Proverb of the day with us as a church.

Jamie Winship :: Releasing the Captives :: 08.22.10
“The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because God has anointed Me (the Anointed One, the
Messiah) to preach the good news (the Gospel) to the poor; He has sent Me to announce release
to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to send forth as delivered those who are
oppressed, who are downtrodden, bruised, crushed, and broken down by calamity, to proclaim
the accepted and acceptable year of the Lord; the day when salvation and the free favors of God
profusely abound.”
As Jesus moves out into His ministry, He warns of the need to “bind the strongman” (Mark 3:27) in order that those held captive might be liberated. While Jesus teaches that prayer is a key element in this process, He also demonstrates actions we can emulate as we move forward in reaching our communities for Christ.
