Jesus' mission involved overcoming obstacles to bring God’s justice and salvation to the nations. Jesus' strength and perseverance were rooted in the Spirit, enabling Him to confront injustice without despair and bring the light of salvation to Israel and the world.\n\nApplication Questions\nIn what areas of your life are you encountering injustice? How are you responding?\nWhat encouragement can you gain from meditating on how Jesus the Messiah encountered the opposition He faced?\nWhy do you think justice is important to the Spirit of God?\nWhen you grow weary, do you find strength in the gospel?\nAre you struggling with despair or depression? Will you bring your burdens to a Suffering Servant who knows how to minister to you in your weakness?\nWill you recommit yourself to the mission of Jesus – the proclamation of His glorious gospel of salvation?","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/rrsP6cLM03jQqk9kx0xND0tl319k7FwqWlkqnqe7nK8/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzM1MDUyLzE2NjQ5/NDM3MzUtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
