21 Days - Day 1
Day 1:
“He unrolled the scroll and read where it is written,...”
When you unroll the scroll (so to speak) and read the Bible, you discover not only who God is, but who you are in Christ. In the Old Testament under the old agreement, the 50th year was of great importance. It was known as the ‘year of Jubilee.’ During that period of time and in that year, the people of Israel experienced freedom. This freedom included all of their debts being canceled, slaves and prisoners were released and all property went back to its original owners. Their bondage was broken. It was a year of rest and celebration! Truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience! No matter what had happened in their lives leading up to that moment, because of Jubilee, they would experience divine favor and freedom.
In the New Testament, under the new agreement, we don’t have to wait for a specific period of time to experience our Jubilee! Because of Jesus' death on a cross and resurrection, the power of sin is broken, we are free, forgiven, healed, favored, and blessed! He relieves us of all our spiritual debts and slavery to sin. The year of Jubilee is a symbolic reminder of the redemption and restoration we NOW have in Christ. When Jesus unrolled the scroll and read the scriptures he was announcing that HE was our Jubilee! Because of Jesus, this is not just your year of Jubilee, it is your invitation to live a Jubilee life!
Declare Today - “Because of Jesus, these are my banner years and I will live the Jubilee life full of favor and freedom! My debt of sin is erased, I am set free and my life is restored!”

Luke 4:16-19 NIV
He went to Nazareth, where he had been brought up, and on the Sabbath day he went into the synagogue, as was his custom. He stood up to read, and the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed to him. Unrolling it, he found the place where it is written: “The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor.”
Leviticus 25:9 NIV
Then have the trumpet sounded everywhere on the tenth day of the seventh month; on the Day of Atonement sound the trumpet throughout your land.
Romans 8:2 NIV
…because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death.
Colossians 2:13-14 NIV
When you were dead in your sins and in the uncircumcision of your flesh, God made you alive with Christ. He forgave us all our sins, having canceled the charge of our legal indebtedness, which stood against us and condemned us; he has taken it away, nailing it to the cross.
Hebrews 4:9-10 NIV
There remains, then, a Sabbath-rest for the people of God; for anyone who enters God’s rest also rests from their works, just as God did from his.
