You know God identified Jesus as the uniquely chosen One by pouring out the Holy Spirit on Him, by empowering Him. You know Jesus went through the land doing good for all and healing all who were suffering under the oppression of the evil one, for God was with Him.
Dear Ones: Doing Good for All: This verse describes part of the mission of the Lord Jesus during His earth-bound ministry. Through the empowering of the Holy Spirit, He traveled through the land of Israel doing good and healing those suffering under demonic oppression.
Doing Good for All Today
“But what about today?” you might ask. Hebrews 13:8, AMP, answers that question. “Jesus Christ is [eternally changeless, always] the same yesterday and today and forever.” He is forever doing good for all because He is eternally changeless. Yet, again you may ask, “Why then is there so much sickness, corruption, and war in the world today?”
The Lord said in John 14:18, “I will not leave you orphans; I will come to you.” But we have our part to play in this unfolding drama of life by using our God-given freewill and authority. We cannot remain spiritual babies always crying for a bottle. Ephesians 6:12-13 calls us to spiritual maturity and to put on the whole armor of God. “For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.”
When we take up His armor, we also take up the responsibility to continue His mission: enforcing His victory over the power of darkness. We go out as His representatives to a lost and hurting world bringing His healing power and doing good to all we meet. Most assuredly, Christians are to bring and release the power of the Holy Spirit wherever they go.
Say today, “I will release the power of the Holy Spirit by doing good to all those who I meet.” Ask the Lord to give you divine appointments so you can release His love and power to those who are hurting. You are an atmosphere changer and an overcomer. I bless you in Jesus’ name.
