A DAUGHTER OF ABRAHAM

Passage: Luke 13:10~17  

Key verse: 16


1. A woman who was bound by Satan (10-13)

For 18 years this woman had been bound by Satan. She was so crippled that she could not straighten up. One Sabbath day Jesus saw her in the synagogue. He said, 'Woman, you are set free from your infirmity.' He put his hands of healing on her; she straightened up and praised God. Jesus came to set us free from whatever binds us and makes us useless and miserable. He sets us free to praise God.

2. A daughter of Abraham (14-17)

The synagogue ruler was indignant that Jesus healed on the Sabbath, and he criticized him before the people. But Jesus rebuked the hypocrites who untied and watered donkeys on the Sabbath, but could not rejoice that a daughter of Abraham was untied from 18 years of bondage to the power of Satan. Some dangerous opponents were humiliated by Jesus, but the ordinary people who longed for freedom were delighted by his wonderful deeds.


Prayer: Lord, I praise you for setting me free from bondage to sin. Give me eyes and heart to see your work and praise you.

One Word: Jesus sets us free
