A mission statement defines the primary purpose and direction of a corporation, what services or products it provides and who would likely be interested in their organization. Likewise, when Jesus began His ministry, He issued a sort of \u201cmission statement\u201d that explained the nature of His Father\u2019s business. He said,<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cThe Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor. He has sent Me to proclaim release to the captives, and recovery of sight to the blind, to set free those who are downtrodden, to proclaim the favorable year of the Lord\u201d (Luke 4:18-19).<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Liberating the human heart from oppression and spiritual incarceration is the mission statement of the Son of God. When Jesus declared He \u201cmust be about [His] Father\u2019s business,\u201d that specific business is to provide redemption of the lost and freedom to the imprisoned.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You say, \u201cI want to serve God, but I am in bondage to sin. I am a captive of guilt, shame and condemnation.\u201d Good. You qualify. You are the type of person heaven is looking for. Even when we are enchained and trapped in our failures, held prisoners to demons too strong for us, Christ does not reject us. He does not come to condemn or punish, but to set us free.<\/p>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">You may be one who has never known God. Today, you find yourself trapped in addictions and fears beyond your ability to resist. Yet, according to the mission statement of heaven, you are exactly the type of person Christ came to find.&nbsp;&nbsp; <a href=\"https:\/\/frangipane.org\/the-mission-statement-of-heaven\/\"
