T.E.A.M. Ministry MVPs

Jesus stood in the synagogue and quoted from the Book of Isaiah 61:1. He spoke of His Purpose and Mission. He also spoke of the Purpose and Mission of His Church as it would carry out His work in His absence. These were those words: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, to preach the acceptable year of the Lord.” (Luke 4:18-19)

We, as the last Days Church, must feel the urgency to experience what Jesus spoke of and to see others have this scripture fulfilled in their lives. Life deals cruelly with men and women. Sin is a terrible taskmaster! How many do we know who need to hear the Gospel because they are poor in spirit? How many do we know who have experienced broken hearts from experiences in life? Can you think of someone, maybe even yourself, who has been held captive by chains of the past, chains of sin, and chains of addiction? Many are blinded by the cares of life. Many are blinded by injuries of the past. Life’s blows bruise us, stopping the flow of blood that is so necessary for healing to the body and to the spirit.

I believe Jesus was saying that we can experience Apostolic Ministry in our lives. We can preach the Gospel to those who are hungry to hear it. We can pray for those with broken hearts and see them healed. We can preach of the delivering power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and see captives set free. We can pray with those who are spiritually blinded and witness God opening their eyes. We can know the liberating power of the Blood of Jesus as His blood heals those who are bruised. This can be preached and can happen right now.

Much Valued Prayers are committed to seeing this come to pass today. They are committed to taking your needs to God in intercessory prayer. They are committed to praying the prayer of faith, fully expecting God to hear and to answer your prayer. James said it this way, “…pray one for another, that ye may be healed. The effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man availeth much.” James 5:16 Make your request known and we will join you in prayer.

God Bless!
