Yes! The Spirit of the Lord is upon me! He has anointed me to preach the Gospel to the poor, the afflicted, and to help mend the broken hearts that are everywhere. Yes! The Spirit of the Lord is upon me to comfort all those who mourn, to give them a mantle of praise instead of a spirit of fainting, and to tell the captives they are free! There is no condemnation when the Son has set them free! Yes! Whom the Son sets free is free indeed.
