And they were astonished at His doctrine for His word was with power.
Here in Luke 4, after His baptism by John and the wilderness temptation, Jesus sets out to fulfill His earthly ministry. Even though His home town forsakes Him (verses 16-30), He continues on and every other place He goes receives His preaching. The people are moved by His miracles, His casting out of demons, and His words to them. By Luke 4:37, the word of all that Jesus has done reaches "every place of the country round about." The Messiah has come! He is tangible, visible for mankind to see. God has fulfilled th Old Testament prophecies before their very eyes. His Word is as powerful today as it was when He walked the earth. Perhaps He has a mircle for you this year. Expect it, and look for Him to do something dynamic in your life- something that will make you an M.V.P. in His Kingdom.
