Why Do I Still Live Like a Prisoner After God Set Me Free? (Luke 4:14-22) | Daily Devotional & Bible Study

Hearing God in Luke:

Jesus stood up in His hometown synagogue, read Isaiah out loud, and said

it was about Him.

Today we're in Luke 4:14-22, where Jesus announces His mission: good news

to the poor, liberty to the captives, sight to the blind. The word for liberty

is the same word Luke used earlier for the forgiveness of sins. It means

release, pardon, a debt wiped off the books. I also share a story from a prison

in Kenya that changed how I read this passage, including one woman who stayed in her cell after her freedom had already been paid for.
