—Luke 4:14-21

Today’s Scripture took place not long after Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist and was identified as the Son of God by a voice from heaven. Jesus went back to His hometown and dropped the mic! He got up in the synagogue, which was not an unusual place for Him to be on the Sabbath, to boldly declare His mission to spread hope, healing, and freedom. He came to rescue the oppressed, to be a defender of the defenseless, and to provide justice for the suffering. As followers of Christ, should we not want to see God’s justice in the lives of those suffering today? What can you do to help those you know are suffering?
