Matthew 12:17-18 AMP
This was to fulfill what was spoken by the prophet Isaiah:
“Behold, My Servant whom I have chosen;
My Beloved in whom My soul is well-pleased;
I will put My Spirit upon Him,
And He will proclaim justice to the nations.
First, He was a servant, and one that could be trusted, a faithful servant chosen by God. Every Christian is chosen to be a servant, faithful and trustworthy. Imagine, He wants you to be His beloved. One that He could be well pleased with. One that He could place His Spirit upon, and that would preach the gospel to the world; what a sacred privilege.
