That You may say to the prisoners, Go forth, To those who are in darkness, 'Show yourselves. They shall feed along the roads, And their pastures shall be on all desolate heights. Isaiah 49: 9

The previous verse speaks not only of Jesus, who was heard in the favorable time and kept in the day of salvation, but it also speaks of us. He is the Restorer of the Earth and of that which was desolated. The salvation we achieved enables us to be part of this process. All this is in the understanding given to the saved. But if we give ourselves to sin or fail to seek the presence of God, we will be unable to use the power given to us.

Another aspect of the mission is to announce to those who are bound to the spiritual slavery that they must come out of it by putting the Word of the Lord into practice, according to our command in the Name of Jesus. The deliverance ministry is more important than people think. Those dominated by the enemy do not live for themselves nor serve God, but are used by the forces of evil to consummate the destruction of mankind. Mercy!

When they come out of darkness, they must appear, and that means growing in the Lord’s grace and not only conforming with the deliverance. Once freed from the clutches of the devil, they can do the divine will. Now, this does not happen “by magic,” or by doing something good, but by fulfilling the perfect plan designed by the Most High for every person in the world. His purpose is perfect and good!

After ordering the prisoners to get out and those who are in darkness to appear, the Most High said that they will graze in the ways: they will be sheep of the Good Shepherd. Thus, being brought to the paths of life, which are found in the Scriptures, where there is complete and perfect food, they will have the capacity and power to carry out their missions. He who believes and assumes the direction of the Lord is never defeated or ashamed.

The pastures of the Good Shepherd will never be contaminated by the enemy, because they are in high places, inaccessible to the power of the devil. The Lord thought of everything so that His sheep would not be confused. Only those who do not know their rights and do not want to submit to the lordship of the Most High, do not do the divine work with true dignity and success. Those who fulfill the Father’s lessons always win.

It does not matter where God sends you; being led by Him, you will find the necessary food to give you strength and make you successful. Never listen to the devil, but, established in the will of the Lord, be alert to the divine help. Now, he who is helped, strengthened, and sustained by God, never loses his battles. The Omniscient is the perfect and mighty Guide in everything!

Be ready to execute the divine commands. Then you will find that wherever the Lord sends you, there will be good pastures. God will lead you to the green pastures and the still waters. Thus, your soul will be refreshed for the love of His Name. With the heavenly Father ahead of you, you will find the right food to obey Him and honor Him.

In Christ with love,
