The Bride of Christ<br />

In His own hometown on a certain day, Jesus stood up in the local<br />

synagogue and read from Isaiah 61:1-2 which says, “The Spirit of the<br />

Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to<br />

the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty<br />

to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those<br />

who are oppressed; and to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.”<br />

Then He closed the <strong>book</strong> and said, “today this scripture is fulfilled in<br />

your hearing.” The religious people were so angry at Jesus for<br />

proclaiming this Scripture as applicable to Himself, that they tried to<br />

“throw him down over the cliff.” (Luke 4:18-30)<br />

Likewise today, through the vessel of His Bride Body, the Lord is<br />

opening up that same chapter of Isaiah 61, where He left off two<br />

thousand years ago in the middle of verse two, and He is finishing it!<br />

This unread passage distinguishes the fact that He is now coming for<br />

Judgment. It explains that He is now fulfilling “the day of vengeance<br />

of our God.” It says that His servants and priests and kings will now<br />

be honored and “eat the riches of the Gentiles” instead of being<br />

shamed and having to hide from the unrighteous authorities in the<br />

earth. No doubt this truth will cause the religious people of our day to<br />

want to “throw us down over the cliff” as they did to Jesus. However,<br />

they were not successful then and they will not be successful now.<br />

May the Bride of Christ come forth and fulfill her destiny in our<br />

generation!<br />

HERE COMES THE BRIDE!<br />
